Sorry, Bernie but the Democrats know whose side they are on and whose side they have always been on

182. Echoes of the DLC

In today's world, few people could declare bankruptcy and even when they can student loans are exempt. It was particularly bitter pill after the 2008 crash.

I can see how it may have seemed like a good idea to place such limits in a great economy with monied interests making big donations to the party. And, it was a time when students had opportunities. But the Dems should have considered all possibilities before putting fundraising ahead of the possible unintended consequences that bankruptcy and welfare "reform" might have on people if the economy didn't always measure up their hopes and dreams. Or, what it would mean to households when incomes were reduced as contributors went to prison.

I don't know what could have or should have been done, but it turned out to be a sacrifice of the futures of people in the interest of fundraising and "winning."
