college costs isn’t due to corporate greed is naive.


Government backed student loans is the problem here and Bernie is going to make costs go up dramatically.

Bernie is right about a couple of things. A lot of the inner city plight could be improved with more affordable secondary education, decriminalization of some drugs, and more affordable healthcare. Anyone on either side of the aisle that thinks that the extremely high prescription drug and college costs isn’t due to corporate greed is naive. You can partially agree with someone of the opposing party without being a sellout to yours. Right is right. Wrong is wrong.



I agree with everything you said except what’s in bold.

We already pay so much in education. And every time it’s the same answer, give more money. Throwing money at it clearly isn’t the answer.

As for healthcare any option except Medicare for all or universal healthcare. It’s also not a human right. I wish each state passed a law requiring working permits.

while I agree with you in general, we do that for many other things (schools, etc.), and people are OK with that.


Schools are kind of the opposite of healthcare in that they are educating the youth to replace workers, which in turn support these proposed systems like free healthcare.

Further, they are managed at a much more micro level of government.

They also allow parents to go to work to provide the current economic base.

Rogan wants to be a leftist. He thinks he's a leftist. He always says this then starts talking and speaks mostly in right leaning ways ?

Yep. This

Both of those things are a product of government intervention.

Rx drug costs: government prohibiting competition

College costs: government-backed student loans

Rogan is a libertarian. At least he was a big ron Paul supporter. No idea what he is now.

I have had the show on in the background and have gotten through almost the entire segment - I have not heard a single pressing question.

Could have missed it, but it seems Joe is just letting the guy talk.
