Middle class would be a dream! Try living below poverty level, working your rear-end off, and paying out the nose for the privilege of having insurance, and paying out of various other bodily orifi to cover the deductible.
I made a choice as a high school graduate to not continue my education. I have a choice every day to go back and get a degree. I picked a job with some security, but based on my education and experience, I make barely a living wage.
We are looking at some very frightening stats tonight, tuition and various other expenses for my oldest to get a teaching degree. Let's just say without a masters and tenure, she has no hope of paying for that education as an elementary school teacher.
Choices. I can change my mind, this blogger can too. I can't feel sorry for her.
