The guy in the video is 100% on point. Politicians won’t make those types of points but normal people get it. I don’t even know what to add to what he said because he just got it bang on. Her policies are horrible and I really hope the country is not in a place where the majority agree with her.
Fixed it.
” I was able to go to college and become a public school teacher”
Well, at least we know how our school children became so screwed up.
“Today [cheap tuition is] not available.”
BS.
You can learn d@mn near anything you want, free, via Internet. The proliferation of free books, free courses, free curriculum, free tutoring, etc is absolutely staggering. Most major universities provide online courses free (see ocw.mit.edu for starters).
Insofar as not everything is free, much is cheap.
The only thing arguably expensive is _certification_ - which is just a notable entity acknowledging “yes, you know X”.
Couple with that the proliferation of free money available on a huge array of pretexts.
Even Warren lied about her ethnicity just to get it.
Skin color.
Gender.
Social affiliation.
Religious affiliation.
Good grades.
Local.
International.
Sports.
Disabilities however construed.
Music.
Employer benefits.
My second degree was mostly employer-paid.
My wife’s third degree was free (UGA wanted foreign/female/4.0 to brag on).
My daughter, when picking an instrument for middle school band, was told “pick oboe, French horn, or other obscure instrument and your scholarships will be prolific” (argh, she picked flute).
But no.
Elizabeth Warren et al want to undermine all those options by paying off - with the money of others - those who “just sign here on the dotted line, you’ll afford the payments later”.
$50/semester? I guess it pays to be an Indian native.

“... but went into a story about how she was given a shot to go to college even though her family “had no money.” ...”
Yeah... She fake-claimed her way into school through a fake Affirmative Action claim that she was part American Indian.
It’s all about buying votes and pandering. Money is no object.
The (fake) squaw is just banking on getting as many votes as possible from Leftists with college debt. How many is that anyway? Enough to swing an election? Or is she hoping to get on the ticket of the nominee or a Cabinet position (Education?!! Ha ha..).
“Free College” takes power away from parents and gives it to Universities.
Dad says ‘we want you to major in something that offers job prospects after four years or we aren’t paying your tuition.
University says, ‘major is gender research’ with required S&M class4es.
Either way “Dad” pays - through increased taxes or directly - but one way he can help his son/daughter and the other way he can’t...
Nobody forces someone to go to college and incur debt for their degree in Twelfth Century Tibetan Poetry and Medieval Classical Studies.
We need to get away from using the word “free.” There is no such thing. Somebody has to pay for it. It may not be the one who benefits, but sooner or later the bill comes due.
According to her book, A Fighting Chance, Warren first dated Jim when she was 13 years old and he was 17 years old. They broke up, but then rekindled their romance later on, and when he asked her to marry him when she was 19 years old, she accepted. Warren wrote in her book, “I was amazed — amazed and grateful — that he had chosen me. I said yes in a nanosecond.”
Following the acceptance of his proposal, Warren gave up her full-ride scholarship to George Washington University, and finished her undergraduate career as a student at the University of Houston, where she lived with Jim.
“We don’t build an America by saddling our
kids with debt,”
Explain please America’s National Debt of trillions plus and exactly how it won’t be necessary for our children to repay this.
(Plant more dollar trees?)
EFF YOU LIEAWATHA! Fine, YOU pay the kids saddled with debt then. You can’t and you won’t. Instead, you’re using bamboozle speak to transfer debt incurred by questionable decisions to us, who had no say in making those decisions. That is a bridge too far and you know it. This is nothing but a pandering exercise, which is all you and your ilk are good for.
Yes, of course we wouldn’t reimburse the people who did it right, because where would that end? Every college graduate living gets a check for the tuition they paid? Massive redistribution scheme? Nah.
But I bet she’s in favor of reparations.
All the taxes combined.. federal, state and local.. and they can not keep the debt below say, 25% of gdp?
What the hell does she mean, AN America?!? "AN"? THE America has been built, you commie hag! We'd like it back instead of created AN America for all the freeloading voters you want to bring here! What a POS this one is. But then, all Democrats are. FILTH. Wouldn't spit on them if they were on fire.
Our kids got through school by mixing g half a million drinks at Starbucks, changing adult diapers at the care center, doing finish carpentry and carrying half a million plates of Mexican food to tables.
All of our kids finished debt free.
