Yes, Bernie’s Plan to Make College Free Would Be a Gift to Rich Kids. That Doesn’t Make It a Bad Idea.

But he's going to jack their taxes through the roof;



The increase will be YUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE!

His supporters look like 28 year old professional students who work part time at their college library and will be too high or lazy to make their way to the polls on Election Day...none seem to be highly functioning adults.

As long as they stay in their safe places...

Bernie would issue an Executive Order declaring that everyone has a right to their feelings.

As long as I am allowed to identify as a 28 year-old Chinese Voodoo priestess...

... I'll bet there's an EO for that!

THE FIRST YEAR OF PRESIDENT BERNIE SANDERS

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

The party created their huge pool of super delegates to make sure that they would be able to pick the candidate best suited to the party objectives. Bernie is toast and has yet to grasp that reality, a stubbornness he shares with Kasich.

I wonder which post The Hildabeast will appoint him to after the election.

None at all...

He won't even be a footnote.

Now Trump, Trump would like him as head of the IRS since they see eye-to-eye when it comes to taxation.

Of course, Miles and AJ are going to send back their social security checks.

Some people cannot, or will not see past the broken window and the economic activity it "generates."

Bernie cannot give free tuition unless he takes money from someone. He, like so many others imagines that he can take it from the rich and they will simply give it to him out of selfless sacrifice for the greater good. Unfortunately for this point of view, unless you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth, the exception, not the rule to being rich, you earned your wealth through selfish sacrifice (and would have voluntarily taxed yourself to put your child in the very best college possible at a greater cost) and you will find a way to avoid that tax or recoup that tax by passing that cost on to the goods and services that you provide to the middle class and to a lesser extent, the poor.

The best approach is for every person concerned about the poor and middle-class and their access to college is to voluntarily tax themselves and contribute to one or more scholarship funds and then they can personally set the example of the beauty and functionality of selfless sacrifice for the greater good rather than training the gun of government on their neighbor and stealing the money from him in the name of altruism (which in this case translates into theft).

Yep, those Walton kids collectively have 144 Billion-with-a-B dollar net worth. But...but...we can't have no "death taxes" because reasons!

All hail the permanent upper class! Go Bootstrappiness!

Trump's kids can't go to the polls either...not too bright or 'highly functioning adults' were they? Just like Dad I guess, who should have known better. Politics wasn't a topic round the dinner table I guess, until recently.

Maybe because Trump and his kids vote by going directly to the pols and openly bribing them...

Well technically speaking the weathiest Americans would benefit most from Bernie's free tuition scam. Fair enough miles. Now explain why this is a problem.

Dems can't do anything right. Either we're punishing the rich and that's wrong or we're aiding them and that's wrong!
