    I just did some quick 5 minute research on the free college thing. Most surveys and polls in the last two years seem to indicate about 2/3rds of Americans support it, so APAG is technically correct. But, nowhere in the surveys I found were any costs mentioned. I would be interested to see the results when the question is asked do you support free college, and your state and federal taxes will rise by XXX percentage to pay for it. I think the answers would be much different. Perhaps not.

    I didn't bother to look at the laundry list of other shit because even though I am stupid I know that would bankrupt the country trying to pay for green deals, and free college and health care for all. Even soaking the rich at 70% wouldn't finance all of that shit. You'd have to raise taxes dramatically on the middle class and sort of rich as well, thereby negating most of the benefit. But hey, the really dirt poor would gets lots of free shit and keep voting for AOC. so there's that.

    We already pay for college and healthcare. Things we already pay for are going to bankrupt the country?
    We don't provide "free" college and the Federal government still doesn't pay for most people's healthcare.
    I didn’t say either of those things. We already pay for college and healthcare.
    I don't think you realize what the fuck you're saying. In response to people saying Medicare for all and "free" college will bankrupt us you said that we're already paying for them so how could they possible bankrupt us.

    Ima do this once.

    The people currently paying for people to go college in this country are US taxpayers. The people currently paying for healthcare in this country are the US taxpayers. The people that would pay for college and healthcare under Bernie’s plans are the US taxpayers. We. Are. Already. Paying. For. It.

    See, you can say Medicare For All would cost 32 trillion but our current system is going to cost over 34 trillion over the same time span. So when you say “how are you going to pay for it?” what you’re asking is how are we going to save the taxpayers more than 2 trillion dollars. You take the 34 trillion, we were going to spend, you subtract 2 trillion and you’ve got 32 trillion. And that 32 trillion number comes from a Koch brothers study, I’ve seen another study that says it’ll cost 27 trillion. We’re going to bankrupt America by saving it 7 trillion dollars. Who the fuck taught you math.
    The people currently paying for people to go college in this country are US taxpayers. The people currently paying for healthcare in this country are the US taxpayers. The people that would pay for college and healthcare under Bernie’s plans are the US taxpayers. We. Are. Already. Paying. For. It.

    This is Hondo level stupidity.

    The people currently buying homes in this country are US taxpayers. Using your Kunt logic the Federal Government should start providing these people with "free" homes. "We" are not already paying for everyone's healthcare or college despite the best efforts by your socialist fucks to make that be the case.

    And there are plenty of people who are attending college and receiving healthcare in this country who are paying little if any taxes. Just because you pay $500 bucks in payroll taxes doesn't entitle you to "free" college and healthcare.

    The logic isn’t why we should do it, it’s why we can afford to do it. And considering your response completely abandoned the idea that we can’t afford it, I’d say it’s pretty good.

    You’re absolutely right that whatever you pay in taxes shouldn’t entitle you to healthcare or education. Being an American citizen should though.

    My response completely destroyed you Kunt logic belief that we can afford to provide "free" college and healthcare to everyone because people pay taxes.

    Of course you ran and hid from the "logic" of your argument that we also should provide everyone "free" housing because somewhere along the line they paid taxes.

    What do you think happens to the demand for college, and healthcare when you start giving it to people "free" of charge? Does it increase or decrease?

    I don’t know bob, why don’t you ask the fucking Koch brothers who said costs would go down.

    I don’t know bob, why don’t you ask the fucking Koch brothers who said costs would go down.

    So you admit you've been talking out your ass this entire time. So, what other things should the Federal government be providing "free" to people because somewhere along the line they paid taxes?

    Food? Housing? Cars? Clothing? People who pay for all of those things pay taxes. So using your Kunt logic we should be providing all of that for "free" right?

    Yeah, that's probably the Kunt act I'd go with if I'd just spouted some Kunt logic bullshit I couldn't defend.


    You're not trying at all dumbfuck, that's the problem. Your logic and reasoning sucks.

    Got to love how the phony libertarian runs cover for the guy advocating that the Federal Government provide "free" college and healthcare to everyone.

    Such a fucking fraud.
