These children, with their child-sized brains, may have been coached (and, sure, many of them probably were). But they've been coached to speak adult-sized truths. Unlike the right-wing adults from the working-class, with their child-brains stuck in adult-sized bodies, who have been coached by the wealthy right-wing owners of FoxNews, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, etc.

Jill Stein did an interview in which she wouldn't call Putin a war-criminal. You know who else won't call Putin a war-criminal? The RW-extremist Republicans, that's who. With that being said; BOTH political-parties in the US are bought, owned, bribed, & controlled by the corrupt wealthy-class with their corrupt RW-politics. Jill Stein is a member of the same wealthy-class.
She has had OVER a decade to build-up the party she represents, and she has done next to NOTHING. And if she's done anything, it has been wildly ineffective.
As Robert Reich said of Steve Mnuchin, Stein is either a fool or a knave. But, considering she's a member of the wealthy-class, like Mnuchin is, I'm going to go with the latter.
I wouldn't vote for Stein any sooner than I would vote for a RW-extremist Repub or a moderate-RW Democrat.
And I wouldn't vote for either of those two RW-parties before I voted for a ham sandwich.
And I hate ham sandwiches.

@Krill_all_health_insuranceCEOs Maybe it depends on the kind of loan. But, for some loans, they can garnish Social Security or Pension payments.
My dad is retired and in his late 60s, and they are currently garnishing 20-ish percent of his monthly Social Security and/or pension to pay for it.
My dad took out one student loan, on my behalf, 20 years ago. It was a Parent PLUS loan. When the bills started coming in the mail, my dad discarded the bills because he thought they were junk mail.
Additionally, my dad didn't comprehend what was happening when he took out the loan. My mom talked him into doing it.
I didn't even know he (and my mom) took the loan out on my behalf, because I applied for, and received all of my student loans ($100K worth) in my own name with no co-signers. (Which, in and of itself, is absurd, considering I was making between 7-8 dollars per hour at a part-time job when I applied for them.)
I often wonder if my mom (who is hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt herself) committed some sort of fraud to get the money from the PLUS loan for herself. But without proof, it doesn't really matter.
Anyway, yes, they can and will garnish the fixed incomes of senior citizens, or they will put liens on property.
Capitalism is like a cancer that keeps on growing. That cancer's name is inequality.
Capitalism causes addiction-driven mental illnesses in the wealthy-class knaves who perpetrate it, and in the working-class fools who help the wealthy-class to perpetuate it.
/End rant.

Logic, reason, cognitive dissonance, The Dunning-Kruger Effect, The Four Stages of Competence, The Paradox of Tolerance, equity, equality, oppression, repression, and suppression, micro/macroeconomics, propaganda, indoctrination, social/psychological conditioning.
All of those things are understood by the wealthy right-wingers who own the Repub & Dem parties. And those wealthy right-wing Repubs & Dems remain in power because the working-class Repub & Dem right-wingers do not understand those things.
Ignorant working-class fools were the reason why wealthy Confederate & Nazi right-wingers were able to remain in power. And that's why wealthy right-wingers don't want an intelligent working-class -- because ignorant working-class fools will vote against their own interests, and they won't even be able to comprehend it.
Ignorant working-class fools will be the reason the U.S. sh!thole will fall. Just like ignorant working-class fools were the reason the Confederate and Nazi sh!tholes fell. I just hope I live long enough to see it.
