A great opportunity for many to experience higher education who otherwise couldn't afford it, but once again, at the expense of Native Americans.
Boy howdy, I am beholden to that AND I am a woman. God only knows how many acts (which are now rescinded) that I owe my entire life. I hope those items that protect an old fat white lady of former poverty and now some means dies before orange mussolini takes it all away from us. HOWEVER, I choose to believe we are going to scratch our asses out of this mess. Make sure you are registered to vote on a daily basis - sure as your coffee - make sure your tolerable neighbor is registered, help those who aren’t AND Vote!
