I no longer have any qualms about applying for Federal student aid

because it looks like I'm going to end up paying taxes. You'd think that our government, for all it talks about helping students and encouraging education, would at least have the common courtesy to refrain from taxing them.

So I'm filling me out a FAFSA and I'm milking the system for all the grants it's got. I might even take out some subsidized student loans and deposit them in interest-bearing accounts. Take that, Federal government!
