His multiple homes are safe then, eh?
How about seizing all wealth earned by current and former US senators above that the have as if they had earned the minimum wage while they were in office.
Basically let’s just take everything they have, since it was “taken” from the taxpayers in the first place.
So says the politician with three homes.
I’m so glad I only have $998 million!!

The people with ZERO common sense are in charge.
Those same people would not be in charge if wealth became a sin.
Those same people would be just as poor as everyone else, if the rich were to have to give up their wealth.
Wealth does not come from the bottom up, and the bottom up economies are all failures, historically and now, and will be in the future.
Musk wouldn’t have been in a position to catch Twitter in the act, by means of a successful bid to purchase the company, were he not a multimillionaire.
What Musk did was not only magnificent for society as a whole, it seems also to have been something unachievable any other way. If it were up to Sanders, though, it could never have happened, and thus would never have happened. With Musk’s good turn for society already on the books and part of U.S. history, while we are still digesting the details that prove how lucky we are that he chose to do it, why would we now act in such a way as to prevent it from ever happening again?
Agree. Only in Vermont.
How about that only happens to Millionaires/Billionaires that may be shown to meddle in and steal elections, money laundering, trafficking, crimes against humanity, etc ..
But take it all from them and their heirs.
And give them 3 hots and a cot till their execution date.
How many in and around DC would want to flee the country to escape that kind of Justice?
Bernie?
You were a victim of that election stuff, too. But you were paid off by the wealthy and powerful to shut up and sit down..
So, shut up and sit down..
...were he not a multibillionaire...(darned autocorrect)
Communism makes envy the moral foundation of a worldview. Bernie wants to confiscate from those who have more than he does.
I’m all for it, provided it is for those that essentially got their money via connections with the government, rather than providing valuable services for consumers (i.e. the majority of billionaires today are via the monetary policy of the government and their connections to said monetary policy).
And distribute it to Bernie?
Most billionaires are actually government CRONIES, created and supported by Fed.gov and a complex web of regulation, interventions, lobbying and bailouts - which are the consequence of the work of filthy marxists like Sanders.
Would you care to buy some confiscated stock?
No! How would I know that it will not subsequently be confiscated from me?
The stupid burns.
Confiscate, then what? There won’t be any billionaires producing jobs and wealth for the government to tax.
Confiscation is only a one-time deal. Afterward, no person in his/her right mind would be interested in accumulating wealth.
The leftists are so jealous of those who become wealthy. That jealousy makes them greedy.
Of course, the jealousy-greed factor is greatly responsible for the thousands fleeing blue states and moving to red states.
To paraphrase Margaret Thatcher: ‘Socialism is great until you run out of other peoples’ money.’
That wouldn’t leave Joe with any supporters...
Would hurt the Democrats far more than the Republicans.
How about the government just seize the second and third homes of politicians.
Then they'll just move the maximum amount over 3 places.....to $999,999.00...
