      Getting a passport in the states is the biggest hurdle. Be very specific and follow instructions or they will send it back weeks later saying to fix something (try again). Currently their website lists a “record number” of requests of people trying to leave. :/

      Something like 10-13 weeks to get a passport…?, USA needs to step tf up

        I have a passport already, my work paid for it. That’s not the issue. The issue is that student loans are burdening people in an unmanageable way. Once the payments start kicking in, I’ll be fine, but many people won’t. Should they have not got useless degrees, Ya. But they don’t deserve to suffer for it when everyone told them to choose whatever they want. But that shouldn’t haunt them for the rest of their lives. I’m done arguing, so this is my opinion. Agree or not, that’s fine
