I don’t get the reluctance to help out students. There seems to be an odd sort of snobbery in deciding ONLY those who work in minimum wage jobs are deserving of help and students in college are all going to land these amazing jobs that pay a ton of money. Well, some of those kids in college are the daughters and sons of those waitresses, retail clerks, minimum wage earners. Perhaps the first to go to college in their family. When they graduate they will probably be continuing to help support their family as well as pay off crushing student debt.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
