Astounding! After a 1988 trip to the USSR, @BernieSanders & wife Jane praise the Soviet system. When I visited Moscow the same year, the decrepitude overwhelmed me. The Sanders are 20 years older than me. To a shocking degree, they are blinded by ideology.

What's not to like about socialism and the USSR when you live the life of USSR Commissars?

As a college leftist Bernie belonged to CORE and SNCC, participated in college sit-ins and looked to socialist leader Eugene V. Debs for inspiration.

Altough Bernie has lived almost all of his adult life sucking on the public teat, starting out as a mayor in Burlington, he and Jane are multi-millionaires living the good life.

They own a big home in Burlington, a home in Washington DC and a lakefront Dacha in Vermont.

They purchased the 4 bedroom lakefront home in Vermont for about $575,000 after he dropped out of the 2016 presidential race.

Maybe that was his payoff money from Hillary to get out her way to the presidency.
Did she give him a choice to take a payoff or get whacked?

Either way - Bernie and Jane spent that money on themselves rather than share it out to the less fortunate as Bernie lectures us to do.
