Last night, I saw a piece on Bernie on Nightline...infuriating.

They spelled out his plan:

Step 1. Free College!!! Yeah!! Free everything!
Step 2. Tax the rich and corporations.

Only a toddler would vote for that...and we have a lot of adult toddlers out there.

More than I make and I’ve had 15 years of experience. Interns are just that. It’s PRACTICE for the real world.

Bernie Sanders demands ‘living wage’ but pays his own interns $12 an hour

He has promised that they will get preferential treatment when he opens the GUM store.

If the minimum mandated hourly rate is raised high enough to enable a person to afford an apartment, a car, and food, then the prices for apartments, cars and food will rise rapidly, making the rate too low. This will spur the leftists to demand another raise in the rate, which will then repeat the above process.

“starvation wage”

Ok, Bernie, so millions of working Americans are starving.
Better to not work at all, right?
Or are all those not in the labor force starving too?

Maybe folks should try the math out before saying stupid things.

If one were to annualize 12 dollars an hour (52 weeks time 40 hours = 2800 hours per year), one arrives at at yearly salary of 33,600.

At that salary, the US poverty guidelines for 2015 indicate that you are not living in poverty unless you have more than 4 people living on that income.

Hillary will be the Democrat nominee. Sanders will move to Venezuela after he is defeated and in a case of socialist poetic justice will get arrested for smuggling toilet paper into the country.
