Senator Bernie Sanders Address To Congress

[Hymie]

For those with an interest in America, Senator Bernie Sanders address to Congress may well go down as a seminal speech, re the current political situation in the USA.

 

As he points out, the top three wealthiest people in the USA own more wealth than the combined wealth of the bottom 50% (170 million Americans).

If he wanted a communist country, why doesnt he move to one?

[sandyRoe]

Does he want a communist country or a more equitable one?

[Clone]

He wants a country in which he can write anti capitalism books that make himself a millionaire from the proceeds. 

Not to mention the big wad he got from the pharmaceutical industry.

Yeah, Bernie is great.

He's a tyrpical leftwing idealist- creams in the money himself, but doesn't like other people getting rich. Like many outdated socialists, his economic ideas might sound appealing but ignore practical funding and economic realities. His "Corbyn-style" movement may have energy, but it hasn’t translated into real electoral success because fiery speeches and symbolic votes don’t lead to actual policy achievements—leaving him more of a misguided idealist than a true political game-changer.

Is he really in the pocket of big pharma?

[ynnafymmi]

Just another champagne socialist sandy.He is much a left-wing fascist as Elon Musk is a right-wing fascist.Both are Amerikans,both are fascists.Which one do you choose sandy?

May check it out later.

 

But surely all know that a presidential candidate has to have wealth in excess to run their campaign, which is why it is a criteria for the job. It's a weakness of their version of democracy.

If you feel that strongly about what's happening, send Bernie your money.

His net worth is around $3 million, he's part of the 1% he's always banging on about.  Typical socialist hypocrisy.
