Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?

There will never be student loan forgiveness or a health care public option because certain (((interests))) make too much money off of it. It’s the left wing equivalent of immigration reform: something the base wants but will never get. Debt strapped students paying interest in perpetuity to Shlomo so they can never get a house or a family, just the equivalent of subscription services all their life instead of actually owning anything...and that’s by design.

The difference is people do deserve immigration reform. These people don't deserve to magic away their debt. The most I'd meet them halfway is they can file for chapter 7 bankruptcy seeing as how the student loans they made did not have prior collateral attached to them in the first place.
 
Student loan forgiveness doesn't solve the issue of too many people going to college when it's unnecessary for them, and the fact that colleges don't do a good enough job for preparing students for their perspective careers at all.

It will only cause an increase in taxes for people who don't deserve to be paying more, while not solving the broader issues.

You wouldn't have so many people going to college if you didn't have schools hammering into any half-intelligent kid that they either go to college or waste away at McDonald's for the rest of their lives for the formative years of their lives. Parents could counterbalance that if there wasn't a concerted effort to ruin them via having both parents work all the time and coaxing so many parents to divorce, but the wheels of progress stop for nobody.

Even if those wheels are heading off a fucking cliff while bankers get fatter off the futures of our children. Don't you love our education system?

The current education system as a whole is inherently flawed. You can teach all the math and science you want; but unless you tie it to something relevant in the students’ lives, it’s going to be forgotten in a matter of months. We spend billions of dollars just HOPING a certain percentage of students will come out the other end interested in pursuing a productive career. Think about that carefully. Billions of dollars spent on piquing students’ interest.

Nothing will change of course. Teacher’s unions love the current setup.

I don't know why video game math isn't taught. I don't just mean X-Com math where 99% can still miss.

Most of the fucks suffering from student loan debt believe in open borders and shit like H1B programs when Trump was around. Fuck them.

They're slowing down on teaching math and science because of muh racism

The teaching of math and science was already a disgrace, this is just them cleaning it out to make it simpler.

Other countries teach high level math early but they do it super late here. No wonder the kids hate math and I don't blame them.

The problem for the uniparty establishment is that increasingly large chunks of their voting base are growing annoyed and impatient with the promises which never yield actual change. Every election cycle adds to the demands and accompanying frustration that is dealt with by kicking said demands down the road.

The system is unsustainable and will break eventually, but it's anyone's guess just what triggers it. Only thing these chucklefucks are relying on is them not being the ones left standing when the music stops.

I'm not as sure... I know a LOT of college students who only voted because of that 'promise'. If not for it, they'd have simply not voted at all.

I honestly don't remember Biden saying that he'd eliminate student debt in the first place. It's a rare case where he's actually consistent and they're the one who put words in his mouth.

Biden hedged hard, Kamala less so, his SURROGATES went hard core on it.

No they will vote for another Bernie who gets cucked and endorses the neoliberal.

Also remember Tulsi Gabbard endorsed Joe Biden for president so it's meh at changing their minds unless parents and people graduating from high school boycott college football.

Surrogates like AOC and Bernie promised that. And then forget about it all.
