Just a few months before the historic triumph of neoliberalism...in 1975: "Tuition‐free higher education, reinforced by open access, recognizes that more than secondary‐school training is needed to move ahead today." https://t.co/kUSUbnax4v — PolitiTweet.org

None of this is new: "Why give a free ride to those who can afford to pay? The question is not unfamiliar. In the past, fiscal conservatives asked quite regularly why those who could afford should not pay for their children's high school education." -@NYTimes editor, 1976 https://t.co/QZAb0dYgKD — PolitiTweet.org

New York Times, 1976: "Once free tuition is buried, the politicians will want it to be forgotten. Others who take a longer view of higher education's kinship to America as the land of opportunity will want to keep its memory alive...as a sensible and realistic option." https://t.co/78qYFkoqIU — PolitiTweet.org

“For the first time last winter, we didn’t fish because the fish moved,” said Petur Birgisson, a fishing captain whose trawler is based out of Isafjordur. If there aren’t fish, he said, “we can’t live in Iceland.” https://t.co/s0wllkGtua — PolitiTweet.org

@JonReinish @justicedems Ah, yes. The influence of corporations and the insurance industry on our democracy is a conspiracy theory. https://t.co/QNgBq4GPIt https://t.co/MzQ17bqtYt — PolitiTweet.org

I find it pretty gross for Buttigieg and Biden to continuously accuse people like AOC of doing the bidding of elites like Trump while they're both hosting fundraisers with wealthy corporate executives on Wall Street and in the insurance and pharmaceutical industry. — PolitiTweet.org

"Ultimately, the success of Social Security is largely due to the fact that almost all Americans can rely on the program to make their retirement more secure." — PolitiTweet.org
Waleed Shahid @_waleedshahid
Buttigieg's attacks on free college today remind me of this gem from Biden's website on Social Security. "Proposals to make the program 'means-tested' so that only low-income retirees workers receive benefits jeopardizes the program’s universal nature." https://t.co/mByM0sfMiI https://t.co/pduUcF1uOz — PolitiTweet.org

Buttigieg, the candidate claiming to represent “generational change,” is just recycling arguments from the old guard: McAuliffe on free college: "There is no way the Democratic Party should support paying for children of wealthy parents to go to school." https://t.co/KubzxOmGsT — PolitiTweet.org

It’s bad faith because people who make a little bit above that threshold are not the children of billionaires. Why are Social Security, Medicare, public parks, and K-12 schools universally available to every American? — PolitiTweet.org

I worry that the “Republicans should put country over party and respect checks-and-balances” messaging on impeachment doesn’t help educate voters about the much deeper rot within the core of the GOP and the structural changes Democrats need to implement to win and pass laws. — PolitiTweet.org

Interesting. “Medicare for all doesn’t divide Democrats the way the wealth tax does. Democrats of all ages, races and education and levels support the policy by similar margins.“ https://t.co/0W9JgoIkvB — PolitiTweet.org
