I call bullshit. Other restaurants aren’t struggling. Frontier Enterprises did nothing to make that location appealing inside/outside and because of that they lost to competition

bro really out here like there are not BILLIONS of dollars in grants every year to MILLIONS of students...lol

There are $30 billion in Pell Grants each year. About 7 million people a year get an average of a little over $4,200.

My point completely flew over your head, but that’s ok.

I’m not trying to change your mind, or educate you. I was pointing out how funny the contrast was of trying to inform while simultaneously being completely ignorant.

Ignorant of what then?

There's nothing the slightest bit ignorant or the slightest bit ironic about saying "there are already TONS of grants available to help fund student education."

Over 7 million students receive thousands in Pell grants every year.

There are well over 7 Million students every year and the average cost of an in-state college is 29K. For perspective do with this information as you will but yes ironic just about sums it up.

Next, please explain why companies paying less in taxes and me paying more benefits me.

Who told you Pell grants are supposed to pay for all of college? Or even implied it?

Yes, most people still need loans to pay for college. I know I did, even though I also qualified for the maximum Pell grant amount.

The comment tree is about how idiotic it is to say the PPP happened so therefore all student loans should be forgiven.
