Okay, but just like student debt, it doesn’t fix the actual problem. Bailing water out of a ship doesn’t do much compared to fixing the fucking hole in the hull.
I love how, whenever centrists kill some progressive policy, centrists are like “don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good,” but let a progressive suggest actual incremental change toward something centrists don’t want to do, and suddenly centrists want immediate perfection.
A congresspersons job is to advance bills consistent with their platform, and the will of their constituents.
talking about favoring some hypothetical bill is grandstanding. Actually building the thing and bringing it forward is the real deal.
Now, some bills have little to no chance of passing. This is one of those. But Bernie can’t control who he sits next to.
Bernie doesn’t do a ton of grandstanding. He’s also one of the only senators who introduces bills that get bipartisan support sometimes. I really don’t think he’s introducing a bill he means to go nowhere
How is it going with the project of fixing the debt?
Btw those wood ships took on water all the time and had to run pumps every day. I find it amusing that a solution that worked for multiple hundreds of years thousands of times a day is used as an analogy for something not working. Hey did you know that human kidney rarely works pass the 110 years of operation mark?

Sanders knows that and wants to do both. He mentioned in the statement quoted in the article.
He wants to have universal healthcare and wants cancel existing debt for anyone fucked by the current system.
That guy sounds awesome, we should have elected him president years ago!

It also doesn’t stand a chance in hell of passing. It’s grandstanding, if anything

Don’t let perfection block the path to progress.

Limit how much debt a person can have is a better solution.
Hmm if there was only a plan a guy that rhymes with Ernie Manders tried to get passed for the past 20 years.
