Short term unemployment for some people can happen from time to time (print lab workers, switchboard operators, etc), but it's never widescale enough that those people will find entirely saturated job markets and be out of work indefinitely.
I'm all for education and tech training being incentivized at the federal level but for young students, not displaced workers. Usually the people who are truly displaced find themselves in that condition because they're old or too stubborn, not because they're untrained. It's easy to picture Cleetus, the 55 year old disgruntled coal plant worker who got his job killled by liberals and their clean energy (we can hope!), but enough of those actually exist that they should garner that much attention?

Who would be considered responsible parents? Those who have kids after getting married? Those who have a certain number of kids?I do believe it could be restricted to the poor or to (responsible) parents.
@waiguoren has been hogging it for a whiiiile nowWhere's the dunce cap?
Great, now I have to clean off the plum juice stains before I put it on.@waiguoren has been hogging it for a whiiiile now

Bernie: No real progress made. If you don't jive with Bernie already, he didn't do anything to win anyone new over. Before, he seemed more unique compared to now where he comes across as a less appealing guy in a group of similar, but less fanatic guys.
Not interested in that. People need to be invested in their own higher education, for reasons they probably don't understand until they get older. I'm okay with giving people help, and even lots of help. Maybe go free for the poorest with the most promise.Are there really people in favor of the "free" four-year university for all Sanders/Warren plan? Seems like a horrible idea. Who's supporting this?

I think that's all about right, though Gillibrand seems to have done pretty well for some reason.I glanced over debate night 2. If you're not Kamala or Buttigieg, don't think you can feel too good about how it went.
Impression from some of the other candidates:
Bernie: No real progress made. If you don't jive with Bernie already, he didn't do anything to win anyone new over. Before, he seemed more unique compared to now where he comes across as a less appealing guy in a group of similar, but less fanatic guys.
Swalwell: This guy seems hard to like. He tried hard to land some soundbites but mostly failed. I also think it's probably impossible for him to win a general election with a stern plan for an immediate and mandatory buyback on assault rifles.
Yang: He has one solution to everything: $1k a month to all Americans. It fixes everything, including climate change (?)
Gillibrand: too much interrupting and over-speaking. One of her people must have said something, because there was a dramatic change in her behavior at one point. She went hard for the feminist vote, which would make sense if she was the only female candidate, but she's not, and not even a decent one.
Hickenlooper: This dude was proud of what he did in Colorado, super proud. Unfortunately, that's really all he had to say.
Marianne Williamson: What in the world is going on with this lady? Her presentation is unsettling, to say the least. If it's alright with most other people, and I'm guessing it is, I'd rather not see her in the next set of debates.
Michael Bennet: This guy didn't really do anything wrong other than just being himself. He almost couldn't have been more invisible if he tried.
Biden: Kamala cut him, and now the blood is in the water. Everyone is going to be after him on past mistakes (except Bernie, which was weird), and he's going to keep bleeding points from that nice big lead. He didn't really do much to make any new ground. This was a small net loss.
If they're poor, they're irresponsible by definition and their kids should be punished for that. That's the way to get a good society.
Me, and everyone else with an IQ over 145.Are there really people in favor of the "free" four-year university for all Sanders/Warren plan? Seems like a horrible idea. Who's supporting this?
Normally that is what I assume is meant but I give him more credit than that so I wanted to see his answer.If they're poor, they're irresponsible by definition and their kids should be punished for that. That's the way to get a good society.

Not a motorcycle fan or so, but I wonder if this thing has the potential to hurt Harley Davidson.
