College students overwhelmingly swung for President Obama in 2008 and 2012, but they’re now finding their on-campus work hours cut back, thanks to Obamacare.

Students—don’t worry—just borrow more money from the government.

Keep voting Democrat and the day may come when your student loans are forgiven! /s

OTOH, schools could just increase the hourly wage to make up for the reduced hours.

Although, once the faerie dust ran out, tuition would have to go up, and a lot of students would end up having to borrow more...

To be fair to Valerie Richardson, the author, I checked a few of her other articles and found she does, in fact, note links for a lot of other left wing organizations too.

Actually, you might be correct. After all we are considering giving amnesty to illegals... to buy votes. Students with huge debt in the form of student loans vote too.

Romanoff is a Denver carpetbagger who moved out to the burbs to take on Mike Coffman in the 6th Congressional. I heard him speak when he kicked off his campaign and his big issue was end Republican gridlock and his big example was the then-recent government shutdown.

Lots of water under the bridge since and lots of regime fails. Good to see he's faltering.
