    Propaganda for free college

    Okay, so far the series was good up until this episode. Having Ilhan Omar on there was bad enough...but having her spout debunked racial propaganda as a talking point without proof was too much. I wanted to learn about how the student loans got out of hand...but instead I was faced with an attempted indoctrination of liberal tripe. Major fail...

    Biased Much

    I thought it would actually explain how Student Loans work. No. It was just interviews of people whining about loans with Biden Harris signs behind them. Deception: appearing to be educational when all we got was propaganda.
