A “government of the people, by the people & for the people” would have Medicare4All, free college, cancel the college loan debt & raise the minimum wage. A govt that does none of those things is a “govt of a few of the people, by a few of the people and for a few of the people.”

Those are wise words and perceptions. Really makes you think about Democracy and how far we have strayed from it
Replying to @marwilliamson
Why don't you insist that universities forgive the debt. They should have used their billion dollar endowments to keep tuition down instead of building monuments to their donors. Why is this the only issue where you don't blame the wealthy and want the poor to pay.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Yes, exactly. And that is precisely what the Framers celebrated because that is precisely what they wanted. Father of the Constitution James Madison said our government "...ought to be so constituted as to protect the minority of the opulent against the majority."

I'm for all of that but I never hear about how we increase the supply of healthcare just how we give it to more people. Will we need more professors if college is free? If you can find an intelligent conservative they'll ask you about these things.

Public transportation should also be free. It's much greener than people commuting in their own car.
