Young Democrats loving Bernie, hating Hillary on debate night

Yes, the Terps for Bernie love Bernie. But just as important in this race, many just don't like Hillary. What young and idealistic college student would? Sanders inspires their passion about inequality, about climate change, money in politics, gay rights. Clinton doesn't.

"She's the epitome of the establishment and the corrupt politicians, and there are so many things to dislike about her," said J.T. Stanley, a senior who is one of the co-founders of Terps for Bernie. "My number-one issue is money in politics, because we can't do anything about global warming until we get the money out of the system. That's my single issue, and that's why I despise Hillary. She's the devil."

I have read the “Roosevelt Myth” by Joseph Flynn which I would recommend reading. Flynn covered Roosevelt from 1932 till 1945 and wrote the unvarnished truth about Roosevelt and his Policies. Yes I agree his rhetoric and polices in the 1930’s were the foundation of the Welfare State and a great deal of the so called “Brain Trust” were academics who were Socialists and even Communists. But I believe that Sanders, Hillary and that ILK really go further than even some of those in the 1930’s. These people seem to feel there is no limit to the amount of Government that should be in our lives and Sanders unlike Hillary frankly admits to being a Socialist and a Anti-Capitalist. The Anti-Business crowd of the 1930’s ain’t got nothing compared to this bunch.

I have been saying on here for about six years now that 2016 is going to be all about Populism.

Apparently a Populist Socialist (Sanders) vs. a right-leaning Populist (Trump).

They are all behind Sanders and it's because of the idea of free tuition.

Sad isn't it. Let's reach for a second and pretend they WERE able to figure out how to provide free tuition at all public universities. How would that work? Here's my guess:

To qualify for free tuition, a kid would have to select a major course of study that was preapproved by the government (you couldn't major in bowling, for example and expect the government to pay for it). Now, the government also wouldn't want to spend money on kids that simply don't have the aptitude to succeed at a specific major (why pay for kids that are poor in mathematics to go into accounting). So the government would provide placement testing to predetermine the free majors that a kid could qualify for. Thereby preselecting and predetermining where a kid fits in best with our new communist society.

I remember being taught that the evil soviets would take a kid and predetermine where that kid would work for the rest of his life. The kid was not free to choose what he did, but was placed somewhere for the betterment of the state.

This "free tuition" crap sounds like it's going in a very similar direction. Seducing the young into slavery is a great way to impose communism and have the slaves cheer about it. Brilliant.

I have asked s couple of kids what is the point of “free tuition” or, even, having a great job if you are paying 60%, 75% of your earnings in taxes? What’s it matter if you are the dog catcher or a doctor at that point? To feed your ego?

The debate looked like a Karl Marx masturbating fest no wonder the young and dumb loved it.

Despite having the most successful economy in South America, two years ago Chile elected a Leftist President for the first time since Pinochet seized power in the 70’s.

The issue that got her elected was making tuition “free”.
She has since had a helluva time delivering on that promise, but it certainly got her elected.

Yes, HRC knows she is rich. She knows that really rich people, like the top 2% the lefties are demonizing, have choices regarding where they put their money and how to avoid paying those taxes. She knows that because of this, the burden of her spending will fall to those NOT in the top 2%, IOW’s, the middle class.

She can barely keep a straight face when she says stuff like this because so many people believe it will work. She will say ANYTHING to get elected and when she knowingly spews this B.S. she almost always laughs because it works so well.

Sanders is Marx.

Hillary is Lenin. A corrupt drunken lesbian Lenin, but still Lenin.

No, FRiend.

Hillary is Stalin.

Upon further review, I think you're right. Stalin was ruthless and had his enemies "eliminated," he would drink a lot (but expected his toadies to drink more), and was a lesbian, too. But he was trapped in a man's body.
