Free college tuition is a great goal except its really expensive, Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) said at a town hall meeting in Fulton, Mo. last week. We cant just start having the government pay for everything.
We owe a lot of debt, McCaskill also said. And if were not careful, were going to get so far under that we could be Greece.
Free college tuition is a great goal except its really expensive. Its really expensive and we are struggling with how were going to pay for what we have in place right now in terms of Medicare, McCaskill said.

Government isn’t paying for everything. It’s the money they take from taxpayers that is paying for everything.

Her seat must be up for election in 2018. Otherwise, there would be no reason for a democrat to make sensible comments.
Dems in contestested states try to sound middle of the road before elections. Then they go back to being their regular dirtbag selves after being re elected. Seems voters would figure this out by now.
It’s real expensive Clair because of grifters like Elizabeth Warren getting $355,000 for teaching ONE course!!!!
NO: Just a pure liberal up for reelection in a state that went for Trump. Also, Fulton is rural and conservative. Don't worry, she'll be back to her old black tricks soon as the election is over.
Tell them to move to NY State and go to school for free . . . and upon graduation move to another state. haha That would serve ole Cuomo and DeBlasio right . . . flood their state with free college seeking snowflakes.
Up for reelection
Eliminate the student loan program and tuition prices will drop dramatically as universities compete for students.
She has forgotten the classic Democrat script:
“You say we can’t afford to do X??? We can’t afford NOT to!!!”
You mean Hillary was lying to me?
Tell McCaskill she of the talking points. Going to lose her DNC campaign funds!
Easy answer to this. No salaries for college professors and administrators. That should make college affordable to all!
Clare, you trying to get the Republicans to vote for you? Really, I guess the Missouri Democrat Party got a left wing kook (yes, even kookier than you) to primary you. Missouri Dems, show me (sorry for the pun) that she really agree with it...
This blubbering, coming from the 1st RAT who endorsed Hellary,before all others. Blah,blah,blah........
Well, "borrows" gives the misconception that the money gets returned. It really never gets returned, the government later "borrows" to make payments on what it previously "borrowed". Of course, you and I know that. We just sigh and get more pissed off that the government caters to freeloaders while scalping us.
Are not all Senators and Congress, Democratic. She is a Democrat.
what up with McCaskil doesn’t she know it is the Democratic/socialist way? The government owes us.
It's been going on since LBJ.
Who the KGB thinks killed Kennedy.
