Bernie Sanders Stands Up For The Middle Class By Dropping a Huge Fact Bomb On The Senate

[Flash]

Yea right your moron. Government mandated wage rates always produce more jobs.

Apparently Sanders is not considered a huge threat as yet, or conservatives would have labeled Sanders a communist and not just a socialist, but standby.

Sanders labeled himself a socialist.

Yes, he did that way back. As mayor of Burlington IIRC.
He did that because he understands the distinction between socialism, commuism, Marxism, the USSR, "fucking millions", "mental institutions" and sticking one's thumbs in one's ears going "booga booga".

Some however prefer to stay with the comic book version.

Actually he still claims to be a socialist, what brand of socialist I don't know, and honestly don't care. I just made a simple statement of fact, do with it what you will.

 

[OKTexas]

From the article linked in the OP:

"Sen. Sanders said, 'The simple truth is that in America people working full time should not be living in poverty.' "

But in fact, there is no "right" to a comfortable existence simply because you do something 8 hours a day. If someone spends that time painting a wall green, then painting it blue, then green again etc. he will "live in poverty", as he deserves.

Sanders started his speech with a flat lie.

So much for the "fact bomb". It's a dud.

Just admit you hate working class people. Scumbag.

Apparently Sanders is not considered a huge threat as yet, or conservatives would have labeled Sanders a communist and not just a socialist, but standby.

Sanders labeled himself a socialist.

Wrong. He labeled himself a DEMOCRATIC socialist.

How about you provide that quote.

What quote? About him being a democratic socialist? Sure give me a minute.

My references above are all from this thread spewed by various posters with obviously no clue what socialist means. I asked one point-blank for a definition. He ran away.

Bernie holds the distinction of facing, as an independent, a candidate who was endorsed and supported by BOTH the Democratic and Republican parties -- and he won that election.

We need more of that.

Exceedingly Social But Doesn t Like Parties

This old fool Bernie Sanders is an admitted Socialist.

It has not even been a generation since the greatest Socialist experiment in history--United Socialist Soviet Union--collapsed in glorious ignominity, joining its total and complete failure with the same result as in all previous Socialists experiments, including the Utopian Societies in America.

It has been shown to all but those who are too ignorant to learn from History, that Karl Marx sucks.

Where do you people come from?

Democratic Socialist. Oh and we come from REALITY....its hit us in the face head on...we realize capitalism is theft and the rich are stealing our labor without paying us real wages in return.

What I find amusing is that the GOP claims to endorse free market capitalism, but they run screaming from or sideline everyone that proposes it - especially Ron Paul.

Even if I was to consider voting for the GOP, on 'free market' grounds I couldn't, as creating a false free market is more damaging to capitalism, than bringing in state communism.

Capitalism in America will entirely discredit itself eventually, but I would prefer to not live through it.

Though the military-industrial complex, big agriculture corporations, banks, and such are doing a great job of setting America up for catastrophe.

When the money dries up and they make bad investments, wait for the crash - as a globalized economy means we all crash together, and the American govt goes bankrupt from corporate bailouts.

If I was a true believer in free market capitalism I would be worried, but I gave up on America becoming a better place when I considered the career politicians that America has elected. So will have to wait for a revolution, whether that is a free market one or a socialist one, is an open book.

The Republicans have convinced many that socialism leads to communism, and if some fail to do their homework, their research, that can become their truth. Does anyone know of a more effective use of a political label?
Social Security, Medicare and other programs were labeled socialistic programs that would turn America into a communist nation. I remember taking a course in comparative economics and the prof told us to cover are books on Marx or the school would be accused of teaching communism.

Yup. And some of our more shallow have yet to climb out of the Red Scare mud pit seventy years on.
That's why it's so fun to ask them for a definition. Something they never thought about before.

That's the first time I've seen a quote attributed to him where he actually claims that, Thanks

Do you really expect anyone to believe you went to college when you use "are" instead of "our"? Really?

Many years, and the mistake is mine-won't be the last.

Bernie Sanders Stands Up For The Middle Class and Drops a Huge Fact Bomb On The Senate

Hopefully you reached one idiot republican Bernie. Their's is coming in 2016 when we elect someone who gives a shit about the poor.

Your thread should be closed for creating a post with a link and no content.

And you and Bernie are smoking dope, the minimum wage is a pure job killer. When you can explain how the two of you know more about economics than economists do let me know, that would be an interesting discussion.

 

[Flash]

It is amazing what these Moon Bats think will produce jobs.

Things like:

Being a non right to work state

Government mandated wages

Higher taxation

More welfare

Using the government to take money from the productive people that earned it and giving it to non productive.

Then they wonder why the economy always goes to crap when they get power in the government.

Pogo isn't interested in an actual discussion on anything. His schtick is spell checking, word parsing, taking words literally that were obviously not meant literally and intentionally taking quotes out of context. It provides him with hours of amusement

"Anybody" didn't waltz in here with false USSR analogies, red herrings of Marx "fucking millions" or vague insinuations that circle like flies and never land on anything. You did.

I'm asking for your basis. And you're going humma humma humma.
Which is what I expected; you don't have a clue.

Interesting how the post culminates in advocating "interesting discussion" -- after starting out advocating shutting it down.

Maybe that energy might be directed to trolls who stand around flinging red herrings they won't define.
Naaah, fat chance. They're Republicans.
