At an event in Oakland, Calif., on Monday, where he accepted the endorsement of the National Nurses United, Sen. Bernie Sanders, who is seeking the Democratic presidential nomination, said he would fight as president to enact legislation making all public colleges and university in the country free.

Sign me up. LOL! Why not push for a cashless society because since everything is free, nobody needs cash. Of course those of us with "WP" already get all our stuff free. The "powers" just make it look like we're paying for stuff to fool the minorities and certain protected classes of folks. I'm sure all those lib college profs would gladly go without a paycheck for the greater good.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

The insurmountable problem socialists like Bernie face is that capitalism produces the things they wish to “redistribute.”

Without capitalism there are no taxes and there are no “sustainable” jobs.

[Paladin2]

Make the Profs pick tomatoes. Let the Community Organizers do the teaching.

[Lake Living]

Let’s make everything free. State governments, federal governments, stuff like that, you know.

[TexasCajun]

Spoken like a true Socialist.

[oh8eleven]

Sanders ... said he would fight as president to enact legislation making all public colleges and university in the country free.
Well, what about Cable TV Bernie. Why can't I get that for FREE? A new car - FREE! A new house - FREE! Freeeeeeeeeeee !!!!

[Lopeover]

With all the flipping debt, this boob is advocating for more entitlements.

[Secret Agent Man]

Socialists use the term free with a completely different definition that Websters or everyone else in society.

[Buckeye McFrog]

I’m not laughing. Hordes of idiots will be crawling over broken glass to go and vote for this.

[Gaffer]

Of course those of us with "WP" already get all our stuff free

Yeah, it's like when the black guy leaves the room all us WPs divvy up the free sh!t and agree not to tell them...

In reality and personal experience, you get out of an education what you put in it. The more it costs you personally, the more seriously you take it.

If this plan were ever to be implemented, I'd expect the educational landscape of higher learning would look like any slate of Section 8 rental housing available in most any urban market.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

Why should anyone go to college when all it means anymore is that you are going to work, be productive and support a bunch of free-loaders? Bernie needs to be more creative — make gasoline free. The greedy “rich” can afford to pay for everyone’s gas.

[headstamp 2]

I propose free politicians too.

The sons of bitches cost us a fortune.

[11th Commandment]

SO let’s be clear- He will use the power of the FEDERAL Government force states to make their universities free?

[realcleanguy]

Good Luck. Somebody has to pay, so nothing is free

[Cowboy Bob]

Will the college professors promise to work for free?

[Sooth2222]

Great idea! The house is on fire -- now let's get some gasoline!

[Oldexpat]

Free for whom? Not the tax payer.

[Politicalkiddo]

That is why I attend private school.

[InterceptPoint]

Sign me up

Not me. I'm finished with college. What I want is for the Federal Government to implement a Lamborghini For Everyone Program. I deserve it. Cars like this shouldn't be just for the rich.

[MaxMax]

Can I get $50 minimum wage? And I need a car to get to work, I'll expect a car.
Oh, and I'll need a roof over my head so will you pay for my house also please? It'll
need a new kitchen at least every other year.

And my Dog, he'll need universal healthcare also along with my parrot,
lizards, sixteen snakes, and worm bed.

If you want to buy my vote, it'll cost you promises you cannot keep.
