Bernie offers false hope and fails to address the real problem for the college bound.

62. It's not a single solution.

It's an interconnected web of policies that lead to multiple solutions.

It's not false hope...we already fund public education, although the "public" part of that has been eroding for a few decades now. Universal, fully-funded, fully public, pre-school through university or trade school would do away with the glass ceiling that keeps some of us in our low places, not being able to afford to go on, or taking on enough debt to do so to keep us down.

That in itself, without worrying about jobs, would mean a better educated voting populace, which would mean politicians more accountable to voters, and hopefully better policies in place in all areas.

Speaking of those policies...

Universal, national health CARE free at point of service, paid by for taxes...that, and getting a fully free and complete education without debt, would improve quality of life and the cost of that life for the 99% all by itself.

Trade and labor policies that help the 99% are a part of that web.

They all work together, and education is just a part of the whole.
