Little Mike could have bought votes

“It's an incredible way of putting it.”

Imagine what one million dollars would have done for millions of Americans.

Bloomberg spent $500 million on ads. The US population is 327 million. He could have given each American a check for $1 million and still have money left over. This would have been life changing for most people. Yet he wasted it all on ads that got him nothing.

I'm still thinking about that statement...

Do you need more coffee or less booze???

Yes

That would equal 327 trillion.

If Democrat primary voters were pre-qualified (literate, aware, not insane, not hoping for more government handouts), Bloomberg would have been the Democrats' best bet to beat President Donald Trump. He is more qualified, more intelligent, and less compromised than any of the occupants of the original Clown Car.

I know several Trump voters, including myself, who would have given him strong consideration - which is not the case for either Biden or Sanders.

But the truth remains that all these extremely wealthy people could single handedly lift the entire poor class out of poverty. They could do that without govt help and without supporting policies that hurt lower and "middle" middle class people like me.

you sound like a democratic socialist, TN.

I am referring to WILLFULL contributions. Not authoritarianism.
Yuge difference
In fact, I even spoke against socialism. Leave it to you to still link the 2 lol

oh, silly me. & here i thought perhaps you were in favor of closing tax haven loopholes & rolling back them thar tax cuts where the estate inheritance tax doubled & how the uber rich can now write off $22,000,000 dollars instead of a mere $11,000,000 before one penny is taxed.

And do you believe that a sudden hanout like that would eliminate poverty?

For a couple months lol

Great, then after that America would suffer a decline worse than the Great Depression in the 30s....

But the poor would have cool cars and air pods!

I support a flat tax with absolutely no expenditures

The day he quit I got two of his campaign pieces in the mail and another today, plus we’d gotten others in previous weeks. Good for the direct mail folks but that’s about it around here.

Had he done that, he would have won.

Had he done that he could have bought his own country seeing the math is off in the OP...
