Agree. He’s too old and too far left. Time for new blood. Beto could beat Trump.

Again, the original bill had already passed, all Biden voted for was a provision that would provide consumer protections.
Turned out well didn't it?

King Hillary. Fascinating how democrats NOW get so bent out of shape, even outraged as we see, when her name comes up.
I'm not a (D). You were addressing me. I am not interested in your diversions or boogeymen.

His college program was not free. What is wrong with seeing that those who need to see a doctor can afford to do so? Don't you think it's sad that we would consider the idea of people being able to see a doctor when they get sick as "far left".

I don't recall what he said about student debt but it we can forgive the debt of the banks and GM why not students?

Free college tuition was something the US used to have and something that has existed for hundreds of years.

Medicare for all is something every developed country has.

Absolving all debt ever 19 years was Thomas Jefferson’s plan. Was he radical?

Your overton window is far right.

Edit: also student debt is losing us money while weighing on the economy, it’s fiscally responsible thing to do.

GM paid that loan back in full, plus Obama saved the auto industry and thousands of jobs with that loan. Many student loans are in arrears. Why?

Free medical care would be wonderful, but we need to pay down the National Debt before we start any more social programs. My children and grandchildren will be saddled with this enormous debt. Trump’s tax break for corporations lost $92 billion in taxes that would have been paid into the treasury. Enough, already.

Baloney. Even high school was not free in the old days. It cost to go to high school a hundred years ago. The oldest child was paid for, but after that, the family couldn’t afford to send the rest.

Give me a link for free college tuition in the US FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS! Never heard of that!

Enough yourself.

Student debt and for profit healthcare is rising our debt and costing our country more. You don’t want to look at the facts because far right beliefs are ingrained in Main Stream ideology.
