Right now, there are two Democrats running
for president that have plans to eliminate student loan debt. First, we have Elizabeth Warren who wants
to eliminate up to $50,000 of student loan debt for American citizens. Each versus Bernie Sanders who says to hell,
let’s get rid of every single penny of student loan debt for everyone, regardless of how
much you have. So you’ve got Elizabeth Warren’s plan, which
is, Hey, if Bernie wasn’t running, this would be the best one. But then you’ve got Bernie’s plan that is
leaps and bounds better than what Elizabeth Warren is offering. Now, keep in mind, this is not coming from
me. It is coming from me because I also feel the
same, and I’ve talked about that in the past. But that’s actually coming from economists,
economists at Moody’s who say that total and complete student loan debt forgiveness here
in the United States, not just forgiving most student loans, but forgiving all of it would
be a massive boost to the United States economy, to the tune of possibly upwards of $100 billion
per year. So here’s what I have done. I went through and I looked up the statistics
and then I did the math. Right now we have 44.7 million Americans in
this country who holds student loan debt. The average student loan debt payment here
in the United States per month is between 200 and $300 again, per month, 44.7 million
people paying somewhere between 200 and 300 million, $300 excuse me, every month. So if we take the low number, if we take just
the 200 and we multiply it by 44.7 million, we get eight point $9 billion per month that
American citizens are paying on their student loans. Almost 9 billion a month. You know what? We’ll round it up. 9 billion a month, $9 billion per month, and
under Bernie Sanders plan, suddenly that $9 billion a month doesn’t go to the banking
industry. It goes elsewhere in the economy. We’re talking about a sudden infusion of $9
billion a month to the United States economy. And that’s what economists are starting to
look at now, even from Moody’s who are not the most progressive people on the planet. I can tell ya, but they’re looking at that
and they’re saying, okay, wow, this would actually be huge. And so what about the people who say, well,
how do we know they’re going to spend it because they’re not able to spend it? Now, student loan debt is one of the major
reasons why the millennial generation is having to put off things like home ownership, why
they’re having to put off things like buying a new car, why they’re unable to afford a
lot of the little simple pleasures that people take for granted, like going out to or getting
their car fixed or going to the doctor because they don’t have the extra money. Two to $300 per month makes a big difference
when you’re talking about a population that spends 99% of their paychecks when they get
them, not because they’re irresponsible, but because they have to. So that money will continue to be spent. It just won’t go sit in a vault at a bank
somewhere. It’ll go out there to local restaurants, to
local businesses, maybe even to big box stores. Who cares? It’s money that travels through the economy
now instead of going to a bank and stopping, that’s where that chain ends. When we’re paying student loan debt, but you
go to a restaurant, right? You tip your server, that person has a few
extra dollars in their pocket now that they ordinarily wouldn’t have had because you wouldn’t
have gone to that restaurant, so suddenly they’ve got a few more dollars that they can
go out and spend and so on and so forth. You go to a mechanic because you’ve needed
a new tire for three years, but you couldn’t afford it. Now you can, so you buy a tire. That mechanic shop now has an extra $200 in
their pockets that they get to do something with and so on and so forth. All throughout the economy. That’s what happens, but it won’t happen if
these people are still making those payments on their student loan debts. It won’t happen to the same degree under Elizabeth
Warren’s plan because you’re only going to take out about half the debt, maybe even three
quarters of the debt. That’s still not enough. This economy at the lowest levels is still
failing, is still struggling and has not recovered from the great recession. Bernie’s plan would put that recovery back
with working class people, and that is the only way to have true real economic recovery
in the United States.

Investigation Reveals School Workers Have Been Illegally Isolating Children
December 4, 2019
A new investigation reveals that children
in Illinois are being locked away, terrified and alone at schools for reasons that often
violate the law. RTs Brigida Santos joins me now from LA to
talk about it. First of all, Brigida, why are children being
isolated at schools to begin with? What, what’s this story about? Well, children are often sent into isolation
as a form of timeout. In Illinois, it’s legal for school employees
to put children in a separate room if they pose a safety threat to themselves or others. But a new investigation of timeout logs reveals
that school workers in at least 100 districts have been isolating children’s for reasons
that are not legally permitted, including swearing, spilling milk, and refusing to do
assignments, for example. So far, journalists have tallied up over 20,000
incidents between the fall of 2017 through December of 2018. Now, out of those only 12,000 reports were
detailed enough to determine what prompted seclusion and in 42% of those cases, no safety
concern was even documented. You know, ProPublica looked at this and the
numbers that they reviewed are startling. You talked about some of those numbers, but
what they found was a pretty ugly pattern. And they say they’re supposed to be somebody
standing outside the room when these children are isolated in basically padded rooms, taking
notes about what’s happening minute to minute. But the problem is nobody’s reviewing those
notes. And that brings me to the question, how old
are these children and, and how did they react to being locked up? What, what are some of the stories here? Must be pretty bad. ProPublica did an entire exposé on this story. Yes, so many of these children are as young
as five years old and according to the timeout logs, most of the students who end up in isolation
are either physically or mentally disabled or suffer from behavioral disorders like autism. Now because adults are legally required to
stand outside the door and write down what happens, as you said, we know that in isolation
students have injured themselves while scratching at the windows and tearing at padded walls. They’ve even thrown their bodies against locked
doors, hit their heads and gotten bruises. Their hands have bled from banging on the
doors and in some cases they’ve even wet their pants. Now the median time that students have been
kept in isolation is 26 minutes, but some of these students have been locked up for
hours or been locked up on multiple occasions. Records also reveal the heartbreaking things
that some of these kids have said during seclusion. For example, one child screamed, I’d rather
die, you’re torturing me, while in isolated timeout. Workers and teachers say that seclusion helps
keep everyone in class safe. They also claim that it helps children learn
to calm themselves down. But in 2012 the US department of education
warned against seclusion saying it’s dangerous and that there’s absolutely no evidence that
it reduces behavioral issues and special education experts agree. They say isolation has no therapeutic or educational
value and that it can actually traumatize children. Well, you know, a lot of States use isolation. I mean this is, I understand this is being
looked at right now and it should be with these stories, but it seems like this is a
little bit wider than just Illinois. I mean, if these incidents are illegal, why
isn’t anybody cracking down on the practice to begin with? I mean, why is this even taking place? Yeah, it’s not strictly happening in Illinois. Now, at least 19 States though, have banned
seclusion. But there are no federal laws regulating the
practice. And even though Illinois school workers are
legally required to file those detailed reports about the incidents, no one’s required to
read them, which means that state education officials are not monitoring these types of
timeouts. People are now questioning whether our tax
dollars should fund schools that illegally lock up children. So hopefully this investigation will raise
awareness and result in some much needed systemic changes. Well, and to me, you can’t miss this. You can’t miss this point about the story. This isn’t just the average child that misbehaves. These children have all kinds of disabilities. They’re mixed up with kids that are also put
into these same rooms. So they’re just, just behavioral problems. So this, this goes beyond just trying to correct
behavioral problems. These are children that have some real fundamental
disabilities and that’s, that’s easy to miss in this story. Anyway, Brigida, thank you for joining me. Okay. Thanks, Mike.
