    Free shit always resonates with those that will never obtain it otherwise.

    You mean like Bush's dad paying for his college education?

    Regardless, Sanders isn't proposing more free shit. He is proposing higher minimum wages, fairer international trade (doing away with NAFTA or renegotiating it), removing incentives for Corporations to offshore the facilities and jobs, and removing some of the tax loopholes that certain companies enjoy.

    Nothing free in any of that.

    The middle class won't get any relief from Sanders and will likely get fucked worse. Those programs don't pay for themselves.

    Look at who pays for all this green bullshit. Raising the price of gas hurts the poor and middle

    Fuck all ya all

    My favorite part is all my friends who like Bernie's idea for free college. Most of them are in student loan debt, so I guess they wanna pay twice.
    This is also a stupid idea. Lets give students a free pass and no consequences for screwing up. Obtaining student debt is incentive for these students not to major in underwater basket weaving and actually try and study to make a living. Without having to pay back loans, students can take whatever they want without any consequence from taking FS classes and FS majors
    I think they should make college free for anyone at anytime. That way I can go to school forever and never get any job. Also, the gubmint should pay my room and board while I'm studying with no consequences. I just can't wait to go back to living in the dorms.
    That's my point
    I know man. The fucking libs. All they want to do is give shit away. No accountability. No consequences. I'll be damned if they take my hard earned money to make education free. It's making a mockery of this country. There is so many unemployed, yet educated folks out here already sucking off the welfare teat. It needs to end. No free fucking education for anyone.

    Doesn't matter. Biden will make a late entry and Sanders will be plungered in the polls.

    Seriously doubt that. Biden doesn't want the job of campaigning.

    Huh? Cause he hasn't run twice already?

    Which is probably why he doesn't want to do it again. Plus his son's death took some of the wind out of his sails.

    Only Bush

    California has a 60 cent a gallon tax for climate change. And wants more.

    What does closing coal plants do to electric prices?

    What does not drilling and building pipelines do to prices?

    Simple economics son. No one was insulting your boyfriend

    He is in favor of doing away with NAFTA to help bring back more middle class jobs to Americans. I thought you were one of the posters crying about the unemployment and underemployment rates? Or is that one of your other handles?
    Or are you full of shit?

    Domestic oil production is up every year the last 6. After more than 8 straight years of decline, what's your point?

    I actually don't have a problem with the government paying for college tuition as long as it's incentive based. For instance, students need to maintain certain GPA levels for core classes, they have to volunteer, or join a work program through the university.

    If they screw around, then they get kicked off the program and have to pay it back.

    Yes, price of oil dropped under the cost of extraction.

    But let me ask you this, if production is falling off a cliff, why isn't the price of gas soaring?

    What about those who think higher education is bullshit? Should they be forced to pay for something they don't want? Is that fair?

    I think having a fleet of 12 nuclear aircraft submarines is bullshit.

    In a society, we all pay for things we don't want or agree with.

    If you don't like that, go live on an Island with Ayn Rand.

    Except that military is in the Constitution. Yeah but still...
    A military might be. Not the fucking overpriced one that our military industrial complex lobbied the govt to get.

    So in conclusion, your point was stupid.

    A well regulated militia and providing for the common defense is in the Constitution, not a military.

    But I'm sure you had a poont.

    And it disbanded after we won (WE???) the war. And every other war until the Cold War began. I'm just telling SFJ what the Constitution says, since he brought it up.

    Press on.

    Tommy your shit is so weak right now. I've never heard the extreme literalist interpretation of the Constitution before. Tell me more, but make sure to interpret liberally when it suits your agenda :wink:

    I didn't interpret anything.

    But that's how things were done for centuries.

    Also, agendas are bad. I'd recommend you avoid them.
