Father identifies a problem with Elizabeth Warren’s plan for eliminating college tuition debt

I recognize that not everyone is in a position to do this even if they want to, but that doesn t change the fact that plenty of people in our neighborhood and tax bracket didn t make the same choices we made more than a decade ago. And frankly, there are lots of things we could have done over the past 10-12 years with all the money we spent on the mortgage, but like the dad in this clip we made a lot of short-term sacrifices for the long term.

If Warren wins that will turn out to have been foolish because she has promised to grant families $50,000 of debt relief on day one of her tenure in office. That s a significant amount of money and a real incentive for people facing that debt to consider voting for her. I m sure a lot of my neighbors will be dancing a jig if Warren wins. But for people like the father in the clip below, it turns out good planning and responsibility were poor choices.

Come to think of it, this applies to me and mine too, but if EW gets elected we’ll be so f*&%ed that having paid for college will be the least of our worries.
