I support this. Bernie proposes spending the savings on: Create jobs by building affordable housing, schools, childcare centers, community health centers, public hospitals, libraries, sustainable energy projects, and clean drinking water facilities. Yes to building houses, childcare centers, public hospitals, libraries, sustainable energy, and clean drinking water facilities. Not sure on what community health centers means. Oppose additional public primary and secondary schools at this time. Improve education by hiring more public school teachers to reduce class sizes, ensuring teachers receive adequate pay, providing nutritious meals to children and parents, and offering free tuition for public colleges, universities, and trade schools. Oppose. Would support the federal government opening some federal public colleges to compete with the college-industrial complex that charges Americans a fortune to go to school. Make housing more affordable by providing rental assistance and bringing an end to homelessness. I also want to end homelessness but I'm not sure that providing rental assistance is going to do it. That seems like it will just cause the rents to go up across the board. So oppose. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! ...
