I was always wondering how student debt got steamrolled..

"Steamrolled" as in you have to pay your student loans if you decide to use them to gain an education that would otherwise not be available to most people who don't have a silver spoon upbringing. Otherwise we lose the option to get them because Republicans cut the funding to the student loan programs. Not really a choice. But hopefully Biden can help it out a bit, not free everything for everyone, but something to help the situation.
If he wins, we will all just need to get him the House and Senate in large enough numbers to get stuff done without Republican stonewalling.

Free tuition to state run Junior Colleges would be a good middle ground IMO.

Interesting, so Obama did everything right and still lost the house and senate

I wonder what'll happen if Joe Biden does everything "right"..

What happens if Bernie does everything right?

Nothing whatsoever, status quo. Guaranteed.

That foolish old man will never get anything passed through congress. This isn't the correct time in history for a unicorn revolution of free stuff. Come up with the money or shut up already.

And get out of California and see the rest of the country, you might learn something. Like the difference between pipe dreams and reality.

I'm curious how hard you fought against bailing out the banking industry? the auto industry? farming bailouts?

Why the flying fuck would you fight against jobs?

Or did you want another Great Depression?

They should break up the 5 biggest banks, not let them go under or the rest of the economy goes under with them. But only for a decade or two.

What's 15 years of hardship though, right? Like 1929 until WW II. It all worked out in the end after 35,000,000 people died.

Bloomberg advisers are disappointed with Virginia, but they see North Carolina as a more ominous sign
From CNN's Jeff Zeleny

Virginia is a disappointment to Michael Bloomberg’s campaign, but North Carolina is a far more ominous sign inside the former New York mayor’s campaign headquarters tonight.
Not only did Bloomberg spend more than $17 million in North Carolina on television advertising, but the campaign also built a robust field organization in Raleigh, Greensboro, Winston-Salem and beyond, which was designed to turn out the early vote.
As CNN's MJ Lee reports from Florida, Bloomberg campaign manager Kevin Sheekey is telling reporters tonight that Bloomberg has “absolutely no” chance of dropping out. Yet a sense of gloom is falling over Bloomberg advisers. North Carolina – and its high component of college-educated voters

– was always going to be one of the marquee places where Bloomberg planted his flag on Super Tuesday.

"This isn’t going as planned," one adviser said. "Things changed after Las Vegas debate and never recovered."

To be sure, it’s far too early to make any sweeping conclusions. But after Virginia and North Carolina, the Bloomberg team of advisers is not optimistic at this hour.

If Bloomberg can't rally up 100 delegates from super Tuesday, I see no reason for him to stay in the race aside from continued ego $troking.

This will help Joe a lot moving forward, California is important, looks like Joe will clear 15% and if someone else does it will help a lot against Bernie.

Well, it’s Biden’s nomination now

Ouch

He just killed bernie tonight
Click to expand...
If he does, I hope he kills him dead and ends the division in the party, this will be very important to Joe moving forward, the moderates have a place to go and they will go with Joe. If he goes into the convention with a majority of delegates and comes out the winner the party will unite behind him and so will Bernie. The heat will be on Bloomberg to drop out and leave his cash in, if Joe goes into the convention with a majority of delegates, Bloomberg will look like shit and might as well be a fucking Russian if he tries any bullshit, there ain't much left to broker at the convention now. California is important and Bloomberg might do some good there for Joe, we'll soon see.
