Bernie Sanders unveils plan to eliminate $1.6tn in student loan debt
Democratic presidential candidate proposes to pay for plan, which would cost $2.2tn over next decade,
through a tax on Wall Street
Bernie Sanders on Monday introduced legislation to eliminate the entire $1.6tn in student loan debt owed by
45 million Americans.
The Vermont senator announced the move as he vies for the Democratic presidential nomination in a primary
contest marked by sweeping economic proposals.
This initiative builds on Sanders’ previous higher education plan, and would make two- and four-year public
colleges and universities tuition-free and debt-free. The plan would cost $2.2tn over the next decade, a figure
Sanders proposes to pay through a tax on Wall Street.
“This is truly a revolutionary proposal which accomplishes three major goals,” Sanders said in Washington on
Monday.
Not only that, but loony tune claims that his paln "would make two- and four-year public colleges and universities tuition-free and debt-free."
lol
Nothing is free, 'tard.
And even beyond that, fundamentally his idea would be subsidizing irresponsibility.
Culture in the U.S. needs to go directly opposite of that.
Nobody put a gun to the heads of these dummies who took out big loans.
As I said previously, these Dims (for the most part) speak as if they are talking to m0rons and/or children.
They offer pie-in-the-sky fairy tale ideas that sound like things that candidates for student body president would propose.
