Who said the goal of Democrats is to destroy America?

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) on Wednesday blocked a Republican request to force railroad workers and companies to accept the recommendations of a nonpartisan panel to avoid a strike that would impact millions of Americans.

Sanders stood up on the floor to block the speedy approval of the resolution — introduced by Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pension Committee ranking member Richard Burr (R-N.C.) and Sen. Roger Wicker (R-Miss.) — that would require railroad workers to adopt the outlines of a labor deal.

 
So what happened to all that talk about the free market? The RR companies have been making increasing record profits for quite a while while workers wages have remained stagnant. How many more Billions need to be hoarded for the super rich before the workers see some benefit for their hard work?
