I'll address why:
1) Sanders has never stated that he expects us to go from $7.25 to $15 an hour tomorrow. His specific plan is a "phase in" plan. But I suspect you knew that and your only point is to shit on Sanders.
2) Sanders has never stated that he expects us to go from oil and natural gas to solar and wind in a year or less. His plan is a transitional and specific plan away from oil, natural gas and nuclear energy to solar, wind and other technologies. He has proposed actual legislation to address these issues and will continue to work to address these issues. But I suspect you knew that and your only point is to shit on Sanders.
3) Sanders has never said he is leaving public education funding at the whim of teapublican governors.
You approached all this as if he has given no thought or consideration to how to really make things better. He has considered standardized testing, vouchers, career and technical education and a affordable college education. Many, many nations make it work and it is not beyond our ability to make it work for us. The legislation he has put forth is a comprehensive plan, that makes a great start to addressing the needs. What is the alternative? Keep half-assing it and continue wringing our hands and hope it fixes itself why millions of people, including me, keep drowning in student loan debt??? But I suspect you knew that and your only point is to shit on Sanders.
