Democratic Socialism. The politboro meets, and votes (democratically) how many loaves of bread the average grunt gets in a year.
He’s just a crazy old bastard. Nothing more.
DemocRATic socialist = Communist.
National socialist = Nazi.
What he wants is a country run by liberal elitists who are above the law.
Whether or not it works in Denmark is a separate issue. But let’s pretend that it does work in Denmark. Denmark is a very small (<6M people), quite homogenous (88% Danish origin) society. The US is as different from that as can be. There is no reason to believe that a system that works in Denmark can be transplanted to the US and work. To state it bluntly: Newark, Baltimore, St Louis, etc ain’t gon’ be playing nice.
We’ve already run out of OPM.
Bernie is a liar. He’s not a socialist, he’s an anti-capitalist. If the media, and anyone else who gives a damn was being honest, we’d call him a collectivist. If he had his way, we’d absolutely be pursuing a communist system at 100 mph.
Anyone who votes for a socialist always thinks they are one of the deserving. They never think about the person next to them eying their wallet.
And it is making sure that all of our people have health care as a right, education as a right, decent housing as a right, child care as a right. That’s what I believe.

Bernie, here’s the deal, point out those rights to me in the U.S. Constitution and I’ll vote for you.
“So what does that mean?” Sanders asked the students. “Does anyone here think I’m a strong adherent of the North Korean form of government? That I want all of you to be wearing similar colored pajamas?”
“Is it a society where the government owns every mom-and-pop store?” he asked. “Of course not...”
Stalinits lie. ALWAYS
“One press release – from a Senate race he contested in 1974 – proposes a radical solution to rising energy prices. “Bernard Sanders, the Liberty Union candidate for the United States Senate, today called for the public takeover of all privately owned electric companies in Vermont,” it stated.”
Bernie, you said: “You don’t necessarily need a choice of 23 underarm spray deodorants or of 18 different pairs of sneakers when children are hungry in this country.”
So let me get this straight, Bernie . . . you're going to set up an agency or a czar to determine how many kinds of deodorant, and how much of it, can be permitted by law?
Will you do the same with toilet paper? I mean look how many brands of toilet paper there are. Shall we just set up a monopoly of one company, or better yet, a government monopoly, to produce exactly the right amount of toilet paper, or otherwise limit the amount of toilet paper that gets produced?
Are you going to hire Michael Gruber to be the guy who figures out the correct amount of toilet paper that people should be allowed to use? He's smart. He teaches at MIT. So why shouldn't we put him in charge of figuring out exactly how much of everything should or shouldn't be produced for the American people?
Have you been to socialist Venezuela lately, Bernie? They seem to have solved the problem of too many toilet paper brands. Because right now there is no toilet paper to be had at all in socialist Venezuela."
So tell me Bernie, what exactly will you do to feed starving children by reducing the amount of toilet paper we have in this country? And by the way, when you close all the toilet paper companies, how will the people who used to work at them feed their own starving children?
Bernie? . . . .
I just want to see Sanders and his ilk in front of a firing squad. I think we’ve had quite enough of communist atrocities to last us for the next millennium or so.
Using Karl Marx’s ideas to help the middle class is like using Adolf Hitler’s ideas to help the Jews.
Marx HATED the middle class.
He wanted them DEAD.
He had NOTHING to offer them.
The Communist Manifesto is free online if you don’t believe me, but reading it would be hard and require effort.
It’d be so much easier to just call me names and talk down to me.
You’d be wrong, but you’d feel good about yourself and that’s all that really matters in Obamaland.
Guess Bern-bern didn’t talk to the recent ‘refugees’ to Denmark. According to them Denmark stinks when it comes to handing out freebies.
“You still have your choice of pajamas.”
Well that’s crazy. More than one type of pajamas is wasteful. All the money spent on different types of pajamas could be spent on free college tuition. But why should we have more than one college? Or more than one student? That sounds wasteful too.
Vermont is not a real place.
Question. I know he is in caucus with the Democrats, but Sanders is an INDEPENDENT. How can he get DNC money and support but not be a declared Democrat. So he’s a third party candidate using Democrat funding? Why is no one asking him to declare being Democrat before he cashes the funding checks?
