Sanders: ‘It’s Wall Street’s Turn to Help the Middle Class of this Country’

BAIER: "Currently we’re at 19 BNT 1 trillion gross federal dead projected to rise by 10 trillion 2026."
SANDERS: "I raise the issue, because of that 19 you were talking about, 15 was health care. You exclude that. And let’s talk about the others. I happen to believe that in the year 2016, when we talk about public education, it means to me that a college degree today in many respects is what a high school degree was 50 years ago. I believe that we’ve got to make public colleges and universities tuition free. I believe that we have to substantially lower student debt because young people should not be forced to pay off their debts for 50 years. How do you pay for that? That’s your question. When the illegal behavior in this country caused the downturn, the United States Congress against my vote, Hillary Clinton and I disagree, she voted for it, I voteded against it. Congress passed a bailout. I think we should impose a tax on Wall Street speculation, I think it’s Wall Street’s turn to help the middle class of this country pay for it."
