This clip of Charles Payne during Obama's second term is really incredible. Well done Charles.
In 2010 Obama put the federal government directly in charge of lending money to students. Eliminating private lending made the loans much easier to get, but they were not less expensive.
Before Obama took office, outstanding student debt was less than $100 billion. By 2015, outstanding student debt was approximately $800 billion and almost a third of the borrowers were in default. Of course the price of college continued to soar the entire time.
This is the best part. Payne predicted that someday the politicians would be promising to forgive student debt as a way to buy votes. He was spot on.
There are people like Ro Khanna on this site right now arguing that Elon Musk should be paying down the student debt when it's a problem that politicians created.
@jennessie7@marklevinshow@grok The CIA also assessed that Iraq possessed chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons programs. Post-invasion searches found this to be a major intelligence failure.
82 years ago today, nearly 160,000 Allied troops stormed the beaches of Normandy on D-Day, launching the liberation of Europe.
We are free because they were brave. 🇺🇸
James Madison described the powers of the federal government as “few and defined” and those reserved to the states as “numerous and indefinite.”
We’ve been dangerously drifting from that understanding since the 1930s.
The drift has been most evident in areas now most fraught with waste, fraud, and abuse.
If we honored the Constitution’s limits on federal power, there’d be very little waste, fraud, and abuse in our national government.
Share if you’d like to see a “constitutional reset,” in which any government function that’s not obviously and necessarily federal under the Constitution would be returned “to the states respectively, or to the people,” as the Tenth Amendment specifies.
@sudmuck@AndySpark25@MarindaVannoy1 I never said Mussolini was perfect in the way it was implemented. I’m saying the co author the Doctrine of Fascism believed that Fascism is a form of socialism.
@AstroJoeB Air Force? Did you know, that the Bs and Ds couldn’t take a burner shot without heavy load? Something to do with “it will beat the cat stroke”
@AstroJoeB I remember their line was nearly shutdown at AIMD Oceana in the late 90’s, I think had something to do with turbines. I was doing 1st degree repair back in 41G, cranking out them 30’s through HSI!
@Hontas_Farmer@ArielleScarcell Can AB take a scholarship or any prize from a girl by competing? If so, he should not be allowed to compete against females!
