And Hillary's lack of discipline and abundance of careless ness with government emails shows she is an abysmal politician.
Tl;dr why the -blam!- isn't she in jail?

I agree. Why isn't Bernie the nominee?
-
He's just as bad. The taxes would go though the roof. It would be a horror show
-
Taxes were higher under Eisenhower.
-
Is Eisenhower here right now? No. so how is this relevant.
-
A Bernie tax plan or a social democratic tax plan would be lower than taxes under Eisenhower, so it's ludicrous that Republicans think the tax rate is so abnormally high.
-
We don't (or at least I don't). I'm talking about how with the "free college" bullshit that he wanted for everyone, our taxes would go through the roof. (Notice that that statement is NOT in present tense)
-
Taxes would go up for the wealthy, while taxes wouldn't change much for people that make under $300,000. You could also cut military spending by 35% and end corporate welfare, and add the extra funds to the education and healthcare system.
-
Yet none of those would have happened.

Also, 50 years ago, you could pay for your college tuition through a minimum wage job, and get through without debt. Now, the minimum wage is far too low (if tied to inflation inflation, it would've been $12+ now). Tuition rates have rose 1000% in 30 years, and wages haven't been increased to compensate for that. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2012-08-15/cost-of-college-degree-in-u-s-soars-12-fold-chart-of-the-day http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2015/07/23/5-facts-about-the-minimum-wage/

Yes I agree. But free college has never been a thing. And should never be a thing. If he wanted to lower tuitions nation wide, id'a voted for him. But free college is just straight up stupid.
-
I would settle for AFFORDABLE tuition, but universal post-secondary education as a right, is something I virulently support. Need I tell you the amount of countries that have it, and do BETTER on average?
-
Oh yes I am very aware. We are about 9th best right now. We used to be 2nd to china. Both koreas have surpassed us along wit Japan for numerous reasons. Education in America has gone down hill ever since the depression.
-
FINALLY something we can agree on. Standardized testing needs to be abolished. It's as simple as that. It teaches our young people to remember/guess answer bubble A,B, C, or D, not to think critically or actually use their brains.
-
Absolutely
-
They could have, but it would take a democratic supermajority. However, the will of the people can change the world. Change the course of human history.
-
Oh well. You get Hillary
-
I'd rather have a 3rd Obama term. lol But I'll take HilLIARy over Terrorist Don.
