Full Title: Elizabeth Warren Surprises Grads By Announcing She Will Sharply Increase Their Taxes To Pay For Their Student Loans

AMHERST, MA—Speaking to the graduating class of 2019 at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, Senator Elizabeth Warren proudly announced she would be sharply increase their taxes in order to pay for their own student loans, which were inflated by government subsidies in the first place.

After an inspiring speech in which she encouraged students to let the government do everything for them instead of doing things themselves and to exploit any minority status they have, or even ones they don't have, Warren unveiled her generous offer.

"I have a special treat for you today," she said, winking. "Every student here will be heavily taxed, and then with that money, we'll forgive your student loans!"

Crickets cheered after the announcement.

"You heard me right: total loan forgiveness in exchange for crippling taxes. What can I say except, 'You're welcome!'" she said proudly as confused students murmured to one another.

At publishing time, Warren had told all the students to look under their seats for a free, authentic Indian headdress she had purchased at the Dollar Tree.

Ahhh ... the ol' Land-O-Lakes box "trick":
Step 1: Cut out the small product box she's holding.
Step 2: Fold up the figure from the bottom so her knees show through where the product box was.

(Yeah, I know I'm 'way to old for this kids' stuff!)

What did they expect? None of this money for “free stuff” belongs to anyone but the taxpayers in the first place. Government has no money of their own. If they ever actually did have(doubtful)it would have been pissed away a long time ago.

It sounded so plausible that I didn't notice at first it was from the Babylon Bee.

Did she quote the immortal words of JFK's speechwriter, "Ask not what you can do for your country, ask what your country can do for you"?

Satire or not, across the vast community of seriously brain damaged, it must bring great comfort to know that one of their own is running for president.
