you don't have to agree with everything, brings up many good points.



The green agenda kills me. Sure we could work to be more clean and efficient, it all seems forced though. I don't like it at all.

He's a socialist...I'm a conservative, that is enough. But he'll continue to get elected by the most liberal state in the Union.

cut the bs... He's a democratic socialist which means he supports things like the post office, public education, roads and infrastructure and other basic universal needs of society.  You guys make it sound like he's a communist ::)  If we didn't have people leaning that way, we would be paying way more to corporation X for the same services.  Corporations have plenty of room to make their money in other areas yet they keep pushing and forcing their way into even the most basic community tax paid areas.  Why do they do this?  because they can.  Glad there are people like Sanders to push back against it.

Wouldn't you say that we are well en route to becoming a state in which 95% of the riches are contentrated on 1% of the people? I mean, the gap keeps getting larger and larger by the year, with no reversal of the trend foreseeable in the short or long term, knowing we just gave them a 850 billion blank check to keep accumulating shit they do not need.

Why is it that the very same people who profess an rampant disconfort with government are the very same crowd who seem to live life like nothing's wrong, like there's an "invisible hand" looking out for them? I mean, when the shit hits the fan the immense majority will be left to fend for themselves. It's happened before and it won't certainly stop because we are Americans.

My two cents.

So then your answer is to have the government redistribute the wealth to the other 95 percent (1/3 of which do not pay taxes)?

How much more of our money do we have to give to the incompetent asshats in Washington before we come to our senses?
