How can you mock nebulous strawman "liberals" about reading an economics book once and thinking they can debate economics when you voted for and support a president based on the merits of having zero experience in his chosen job, red sox.


red sox didn't vote for trump. he wrote in bernie.


Yes, and now Bernie has introduced a plan to cancel all of the existing student debt in the country. That's... probably bad policy, but it's a much better offer for me personally than Elizabeth Warren's plan. I haven't made up my mind for 2020 yet but I'm listening. Your move, President Trump.

It's true that essentially bribing citizens for votes is really corrosive to any republic in the long run, so I'm very hesitant to be too enthusiastic about any proposal that benefits me substantially more than the median voter. I have a higher student loan balance than the median person with student loans (and obviously more than the median voter). Also have a higher income than either of those medians, so Bernie's plan is definitely unfair in my favor.
