Don't let the title fool you.

This idiot has an answer!

She believes that stealing from those who have is how all free stuff should be paid for!
This is the mindset of today's liberals!

Stealing from those who have little was the answer that wall street came up with when they wanted trillions of dollars to bail them out.

So you are saying its bad for those with little to want a little of that money back?

Where did that girl get the "1 in 2 families are threatened with poverty"?

She came across as a bit dim and naive. I wonder what her major is.

This interview highlights the need for colleges to insist on Macroeconomics as a required gen ed course for all students. Poor girl is so clueless and sadly, doesn't even realize how clueless she is even when presented with basic facts.

Maybe we should require refresher courses for those that go into banking and investing also?

The bailout money was created out of thin air!
Just like the billions that are fed to the markets every month.

It wasn't taken from anyone and the digital, (use to be paper) iou's will never be paid.

Great...then if Sanders is president he can just order the Fed to create money out of thin air to pay for colleges?

This is what college students are learning. She didn't just make this up. She's being taught this. The Democrat Party and the liberals who are permanently ensconced in our institutions of higher "learning" are the biggest promoters of this nonsense.

Myth: Most of the nations wealth is owned by 1% of the population, and they are hoarding it
.
Truth: Wealth is created. There is no wealth "pie" that is finite. Wealthy people do not "hoard" their money; they invest it, which allows others to grow a business and create more wealth, no only for the investors, but for other people, and they create jobs and opportunity for people like this young lady to begin growing their own wealth. It's a long process, and it takes hard work and drive, but that is how wealth is created.

If I were this child's parents, I would pull her out of school so fast it would make her head spin, and tell her to get a job and work. Her formal education is done. The best place to learn about how the world works is not through "higher 'education'" but through life experience. These college kids are 'know nothings.' They have learned nothing but the rhetoric of the Left. "America is bad. The system is rigged (Elizabeth Warren). Rich people are greedy," etc., etc. But who's really greedy? They are those who think somebody else should pay for them.

Fed reserve and IMF just keep on printing that money,
The National debt ceiling will continue to raise.
Quantitative easing 4,5,6,7- up to 100.
In 20 years A gallon of milk will cost 20$ and minimal wage will be $15.
Everybody will still be struggling, cause they spent to much time protesting then learning how to becoming self-reliant

that's only if a civil war in this country doesn't take place first.

Obama's Trickle Down economics known as QE has hurt the little guy. It has concentrated wealth more so in the top 1%. It has also lowered bond rates far below historic averages.

Before anyone says that Obama has nothing to do with this...QE didn't start until Bernanke met with President Elect Obama...and then Obama made every Fed pick big or small....national or regional level to a QE Trickle Down supporter.

QE exists because Obama let it exist. Obama renewed Bernanke, Romney said he would fire Bernanke. Obama then picked QE supporter Yellen.
