How young? Because isn't he the guy suggesting the age to vote should be raised to 25?
Regardless this whole republican primary is a joke. It's going to be Trump vs Joe and I have yet to talk to anybody that is excited about that notion.

Taking a page from Team Biden’s book. I’m not convinced Biden is going to end up being the Nominee. I think the Democrat Convention will be interesting and the time and place a bait and switch will happen. Gavin Newsome has been too visible not to be considered a stealth candidate But, I thought Biden would be gone shortly after the mid terms so I’m not batting 1000 here.

Seems much harder to purchase a home, get married, have kids, grow wealth. Part is the reluctance to be patient. Part is the overwhelming debt with which every 20-something seems to be saddled. Student Debt is the new mortgage. And we figured out too late that college isn’t necessary for all.thepostman wrote: ↑December 8th, 2023, 1:54 pmHuh?Biden suports the WEF.
"You'll own nothing and you'll be happy" (alternatively "you'll own nothing and be happy") is a phrase originating in a 2016 video by the World Economic Forum (WEF).

That should be criminal.These loans are no longer the sole property of private banks. They are issued and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government. Go back to Private Lenders making loans and all of a sudden you won’t have Gender Studies or Russian Folklore of the 1500’s graduates with $300k in Student loans.

But regardless, private or public, it should be illegal to loan 18,19,20 year olds that kind of money. Kids that young make terrible decisions. It's insanity.92% of all student debt are through federal student loans.
Also I'm confused by your last sentence.
