colleges are like gyms. they're both a way of achieving the same end. 90 percent, not to say 99 percent of people goes there because is a way to achieve later pleasure, but obviously no one will tell you this, they go to college because they're curious about the subject and they go to gyms because they're very concerned about there health. and i believe in the middle ground, but i don't believe most people have it in there mind.

Re healthcare debt: My parents have been crippled by medical debt their entire lives. They were squarely middle class when we were growing up. Just above poverty now.

people aren't forced to do anything, even the healthcare. they obviously have mechanisms of people forcing themselves, it's called consumerism and that isn't just about material stuff. he talked about something i consider very important, the mental health, that ain't just an american problem, but obviously it starts in america and spreads across the globe.

I like listening to Bernie, but all of his answers are "pie in the sky" solutions.

Erase the trillions of dollars of student debt? Never in a million years would that happen and it lessens his credibility.

The part about the military was in regards to the G.I. Bill and someone earning their way through college. Nobody is forcing anyone to take on student debt, unlike healthcare debt.

i agree on this, he named the problem but didn't really talked much about the solution. but i don't believe the solution is really that hard, i mean in much countries higher education is almost free and it was free in the united states not that long ago. the counter effect of free higher education is everyone running after it and the specific jobs like carpenter and general blue collar works get less and less profissional workers, but than again america have a lot of minorities and that's a plus. on the other hand isn't fair for some minorities that just don't have the money to go to college, if you believe in a equal world for everyone like i do.

bernie doesn't believe in the military intervention. join the military and do what? go around the world securing regime changes, and protect there poppies and oil fields? i mean, my sister is going to the best economic university in our country, one of the bests in the world and she's almost not paying anything for it. if it can be done in a country with limited resources like mine it can sure be done in one or the biggest economic power in the world.
