Simone Biles is in the news again and this time it has nothing to do with her achievements as an athlete, but she is involved in a problem that actress Roseanne Barr made even more viral with her opinion.
The problem arises with the alleged waiver that the athlete allegedly received of about $40,000. That made many voices were raised protesting how a millionaire could be benefited from a money that could well go to another athlete who really needs it.
This alleged ‘help’ received by Simone Biles during her student years has opened a great debate among the vocal personalities in the United States, opening the voices if it is ethical for a person with a capital of more than $14 million to be one of the beneficiaries of the state money that is contributed by taxpaying citizens.
One of the clearest examples is the great indignation that actress RoseanNe Barr had upon her address, according to the account @stargaze1212: “Roseanne Barr ‘freaks out’ when Simone Biles, who is worth $14 million but still received $44,000 in student loan forgiveness: ‘Why are we giving taxpayer funds to millionaires?'”
In the face of the flood of criticism she was receiving, Simone Biles broke her silence with a post in which she left a very clear message: that no one should believe everything they are told.
“Y’all really need to stop believing everything you read on the internet,” was the post that the Olympic medalist made on X (formerly Twitter).
