Bernie Sanders pushes for free college for all. As he goes around the country to states
like New York where the governor proposed that New Yorkers with family income under
$125,000 can attend state colleges tuition-free. Just as Rhode Island announced its own proposal,
covering two years but open to all in-state students no matter their income at the federal level,
with a Republic-controlled Congress, prospects for similar legislation are dim. As I read this
article I can see that this movement Is becoming very big as Sanders presents the case to allow
students to go to school for free without worrying about being in debt. I believe that students can
go to college for free, but people in the Congress and Senate must get off their high horses to
help the American people achieve that goal. I believe that the middle class is getting the shorter
end of the stick. The middle class is the glue that holds the United States together.
The hard-working American that have dreams but are scare to chase them because them
might not getting the job that they want because of their degree or the amount of debt. Betsy
DeVos, stated during her interview for her Sectary of Education “There’s nothing in life that’s
truly free” Somebody’s going to pay for it.” As this statement is true, why isn’t the rich class or
government trying to do anything to help better the American people. We can say that the people
aren’t trying to better themselves or that they just don’t care but when it comes down to it the
American people are scared. They are scared and they fear their future’s because they feel that
they do not have anything to look forward too. The American dream is going down because the
hope is sipping because everyone faith is failing. People are tired of words but want to see
action. How can we expect the government to do the American people right if they not trying to
help better the America people by giving them the opportunity to go to college for free? I
believed you cannot give people hope if they do not have anything to look forward too. I pray
that God will lead our Government in the right direction to help put the American people in the
right direction and help us get to where we need it. This is not a time to be selfish but a time to
come together as a nation.
