I’m more than willing to pay more in taxes as it will be offset by not paying my expensive monthly health insurance premium. Even bureaucrats would be better than insurance “for profit” flunkies in deciding what health decisions I’m allowed to make.
Debt relief can literally change lives right now. Long term changes are important, but the positive impact on actual current living situations is huge.
Why not give people student debt relief and make college free and have universal healthcare? It’s not like you have to pick one.
How much are you willing to give up of your own pay cheque to fund that?

I am just going to guess no one will make that happen for another 150 years, but it’s a nice dream isn’t it.
But my rationality is if you start with a long term plan for universal health and education, debt relief would follow suit.
I am just confused why debt relief is headlined and no long term solutions, as if the culture wants to hide long term solutions.
The culture doesn’t want to hide from it, politicians do.

Neat. Thanks! I wonder what it would take to get constituents to pester politicians more about this. Anything I can do to help would be neat!
