12. Biden’s plans are progressive, but pragmatic.

As to student debt, and I have it, a program that rewards those with lucrative careers college gave them while any number of social programs are at risk and families across the nation losing their homes to foreclosure is wasteful and selective.

Biden will have the forgiveness program up and running, expand it dramatically, allow discharge
through bankruptcy, and expand Pell grants.

Most Bernie supporters have not bothered to listen to Biden’s plans.

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