Ilhan Omar: ‘America Does Not Suffer from Scarcity, America Suffers from Greed’

EXCERPT:

OMAR: “What my bill does is simple as it is revolutionary, as Senator Sanders says. It cancels all of $1.6 trillion student loan debt. No exceptions, no questions asked, full cancellation. Americans will no longer wonder if they can buy a home or start a family or open a business, or retire. America does not suffer from scarcity, we suffer from greed. So we can ask speculators on Wall Street to pay a small financial transaction tax, which will fully fund student loan forgiveness over ten years. The American people bailed out Wall Street. It’s time for Wall Street to bail out the American people.”
