66% of ADULTS oppose the prince’s plan to forgive student loans. He might want to think again.
He doesn’t care. His coalition will benefit from the inculcated students who _think_ they *won* something. They are counting on waivers and incremental decreases in the number of years before forgiveness and so are their parents.
If the conservatives and the GOP think anyone on the left votes rationally, they are deluded. They vote tribally. They vote against *the other*. They vote in *solidarity*.
The only way for the anti-leftists to win is to adopt the same tribalism and to not ever sit home because the nominee is not to their liking.
If the choice is 4 years of Romney or a 4-year double-down by zer0 followed by an Emmanuel administration and you think there is no difference, then, hopefully, you are prepared for living through the outcome.
IMO, we have passed the point where principled people can make a difference on our side. The opposition has no principles except to win, so they likely will.
Of the current crop of candidates I think only Cain would move to end government support for the education establishment. Once you cut off the easy money and force colleges to compete they’ll go conservative and prices will drop. It’s only natural.
The liberal profs can only survive in a noncompetitive environment.
