Ever notice how there is NEVER any talk of put some controls on the public universities? How about a re-evaluation of the credits needed to graduate? Nope fixing what's broken isn't an option. It simply must be a complete takeover of payment by the fed govt. Funny Sanders talks about people in the HC industry taking a pay cut to control costs yet NEVER does in the higher education system.

I work for a couple major universities and I can tell you there is a major grift going on. Nobody is trying to fix it because too many are getting rich off of it. It doesnt matter what Sanders says, some are just going to hate it but making public college tuition free would have to include a total restructuring of the entire system. And I can tell you there will be ALOT of push back. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, none of these programs addresses the issue of cost, only shifts the burden of payment onto someone else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanders wants another $220 billion a year. He wants to line the pockets of those indoctrinating our youth. The one thing about a Sanders Presidency is he can't get a thing done until there are major changes in the house and Senate. He even said it in 16 but he's being quite about it now. He'll be dead (of old age) before that happens. Edited February 25, 2020 by Highmark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that is the fear mongering,"he is going to make us a communist country" but anyone who understands how govt works knows that he wont get anything accomplished by himself.

Forgot about Matthews. MSNBC sure like to compare people to Hitler. Remember the dem ad of Bush or some R pushing the old lady in a wheelchair off a cliff? Shit the things they were saying Trump would do were priceless. Edited February 25, 2020 by Highmark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like healthcare. They had no idea how to fix it because they don't know what is broken. Their idea is cost shifting, not fixing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
