Guccifer casts out Hillary

[shoju_dos]

It's a pipe dream. At this point, I will probably be voting Sanders in the Primaries, unless someone comes in and wows me.

Sanders is far too liberal for my taste. Liberal as in spending other peoples money. $300 billion a year for his "free college" plan -- which I fear is a gross under estimate. To me, this move smacks of pandering to the younger voters. Politics as usual. Buying votes with other peoples money by F'ing with the tax codes.

Sanders says, "We have got to make sure that every qualified American in this country who wants to go to college can go to college -- regardless of income ..."

What do he mean by "qualified"? Why do they need to go to college? I'd say what we need to do is ensure that all high school graduates have an opportunity to find employment and pursue their dreams. Since when is it the governments job to dole out dream insurance? But, if you really want to go to college, then you work hard and get good grades. Then, you study hard and get really high ACT and SAT scores. Then, you get lot's of scholarships, to supplement your student loans. In other words, you need to work really hard to get to college, while in college, then work hard after college to pay for it. Opportunity yes, free ride no. The American Dream to me is a level playing field where everyone can pull themselves up, not queue up for an expensive government sponsored elevator.

I wont jump into the debate with everyone else. I just want to point out one thing:

College Loans, due to the cost of college, are a scam. They are awful. They are a drain on society.

You should have the right to be educated, without becoming an indentured servant.

At this point, my wife and I are counting down the payments on her loan for her degree, until it will be wiped clean for being a social services worker.

There is just no other way it's possible to repay it, on that salary, while raising a family, and being... you know, happy.

For me? I like his plan. I look at other countries, where there is no cost to go to "State" Colleges / Universities. They make it work.

Many of them, also have government healthcare that makes ACA look like a joke.

But, most of them don't outspend the next 20 countries in line on military either.
