Topic: Bert, hypothetically, let's say Sanders is elected in 2020

He taxes billionaires more, leaving them to struggle to survive with only a few tens of billions left. He makes university free for every American citizen. Would you go to university and improve your life, or stay in the trailer unemployed, complaining about Communism?

I guess if Bernie accomplishes that..he will be able to buy two or three new houses instead of just one more this time..

It seems a bit strange for you to say that the rich shouldn't be taxed more, but then pivot to saying Bernie is bad for spending money on himself.

Should the rich give their money to others or not? Maybe just if they're Democrats?

Community college in most places is already essentially (if not actually) free with Pell Grants. This is literally free money that doesn't have to be repaid. With Bert's low income he would absolutely qualify. The fact he hasn't gone to trade school or community college with a Pell Grant seems to indicate it's not the money holding him back from college ?

And it's not just regular college degrees either. They do stuff like welding, mechanic training, IT, paramedic training. The one I went to even had a police academy.

Are you, peradventure, praytell, implying that Bert is, perchance, simply lazy?
