1/ Imagine if we had a presidential candidate saying “Yep it’s true. We’re going to give you free healthcare. We’re going to pass a Green New Deal. We’re going to make college tuition free for everyone. We’re going to cancel all your college loans.”

2/ And when people asked “But how are we going to pay for all that?” the candidate would say “By taxing the segment of people whose tax cuts and corporate subsidies have amounted to the biggest transfer of wealth in our history over the last 40 years.”

The American people voted for Bernie. The DNC blocked Bernie from the nomination.

For 1 " nothing is free". We need to rethink higher education. It's no since that college education cost more than a house.Teachers teach classes, passed classes equals degrees.Contract teachers and let students choose the teachers, negotiate the cost& will become millionaires

No ... except for those wealthy people who want to keep more of what they've made ... and don't really care about anyone else ... those are the people who will hold their nose ... and vote for Trump.

You cant run a country and give freebies to its citizens on other people's money..they will eventually move their money off shore or leave the US all together
