Bernie Sanders Says He Will Eliminate Medical Debt and Student Debt

[JimRaynor]

Bernie Sanders sure has some strong proposals. He will terminate medical debt, student debt, will deliver universal healthcare, provide free college, raise the minimum wage to $15, rebuild our infrastructure, save the planet from the sun, rescue Lois Lane, defeat Thanos, and establish world peace.


I can see why so many gullible people fall for this man.

i am shocked that fools believe this chit.

Just to put things in perspective, the federal budget is 3.8 trillion dollars and Trump couldn’t get congress to approve 5 billion of that for a border wall that was in the interest of US border security.

Yet Bernie Sanders will swoop in on his socialist horse like a white knight with dandruff flying off his shoulders and will terminate everyone’s debt, completely transform our healthcare system, raise the minimum wage, rebuild our infrastructure, and guarantee everyone a job....... just lol.

Eliminating student debt is a money pit and makes no sense. Universities will have no incentive to lower prices if students are relieved of debt. And those who paid some or all of their tuition out of pocket will be upset that they didn't borrow more.

I like Bernie Sanders but he should go watch Avengers: End Game.

A person can say anything and swear they can do anything. Still not getting my vote.

Is it really more unrealistic than building a wall and making Mexico pay for it ?

1 - no plan on how the hell he would pay for that
2 - the people who paid off all their loans would now be paying off everyone elses' loans
3 - Bernie cant even do all those things as president, he needs Congress to pass budgets and laws. He is making promises for things that he doesnt even have the authority to pass.

Significantly more.

Bernie is talking trillions of dollars added on to the debt.

The border wall is like $25 billion.

Getting mexico to pay for it is harder because of the complexities of federal appropriation laws, you cant just move one type or color of money to different things. We could cancel aid to mexico, raise tarrifs ect but it really would need to be in the annual federal budget to reroute that money to the wall construction.

Its still peanuts compared to Bernie's spending promises.

F#cking this. Do all the people who werent f#cktards & spend 100k on a art degree GET a check? If so f#ck it Bernie for President! Thank you for the hundro racks you packrat looking mfer.

The medical sh^t I got more sympathy for cuz few mfers trying to go in debt on that & its completely insane how money hungry & f#cked up US medicine works so yea lets restructure how that works & help out some people in some ways that make sense & if paying off some debt makes sense fair play.
