Sanders Tweets 'How Many Yachts Do Billionaires Need? How Many Cars?

[PK1]

what's wrong with a yacht in Hawaii, one in San Francisco, and one in Miami?

I think Jesus, if he inherited lots of money, would keep only one (1) yacht, if any, and use his other funds to help the less fortunate.
I'm not religious, but I understand ethics and the golden rule.

Buying yachts does help the less fortunate they get jobs making them selling them transporting them fixing them working on them etc. etc.capitalism is the greatest social welfare program in history. Chyna just switch to it and instantly illuminated 40% of all the poverty on the planet

Jobs? Unskilled jobs?
Maybe instead of "investing" in more yachts (& houses, cars, furs, etc) for personal use, the rich can invest their extra money in skill-developing training programs for the poor, like Jesus would have done?
The most ethical rich people give back to society that made them rich in the first place.

If you don't think it takes lots and lots of skill to build a yacht you are very very crazy

Of course it takes skill to built good yachts. How does one get those skills? That's what i was referring to. The builder is not going to hire unskilled labor, so how will a rich person buying lots of yachts going to benefit poor unskilled folks ... the type Jesus would have sympathy for?

. The builder is not going to hire unskilled labor,

of course he is; he will hire them and train them if he wants to stay in business. Most corporations do this, obviously!!

What are you trying to say, that there is no yacht school?

Sanders believes that the American worker isn't making enough money. That IS true.

That's only half of Sanders' belief system. He also believes rich people don't NEED their money and that it is okay to steal it from them.

That's complete BULLSHIT. Shouldn't the rich/wealthy pay the same percentage of tax on income as you?

Sanders' yacht comment clearly indicates he feels we should take even more money from the rich.

Shouldn't the rich/wealthy pay the same percentage of tax on income as you?

Last summer, the IRS released data on taxpayer incomes that offers intriguing insight into the taxes rich Americans pay.

The information suggests that the average person with an income north of $1 million per year pays 25% or more of adjusted gross income in taxes. Exactly how much money does the average American with a seven-figure-plus income pay in taxes? Read on to find out.

Regular filers
The IRS reports that 44,500 Americans with adjusted gross income north of $1 million filed income tax returns using regular tax computation methods in 2013, including 2,100 Americans with incomes of $5 million or more.

Among those filers, Americans with income between $1 million and $1.5 million paid 28.1% of their adjusted gross income in taxes, or an average of $335,912.

A person has an income of $10M and an AGI of $1M pays 28.1% in taxes or 3 percent of total income in federal tax.

Sanders is a total fraud and hypocrite. Can't Sanders live in a cheap apartment why does he need a house? He should sell all his belongings and give his money to the government to be redistributed then he can talk shit.

Sanders is pro-American worker. Trump isn't.

Sanders never had a real job in his whole adult life fool.

Anybody that has a government job doesn't have a real job?

If employees were better paid we'd not have a $20T debt.

It is ill-gotten gains.

How do you figure that????

The middle class where the IRS receives 72% of their collection would have paid more in taxes.

Debt is less about more taxes collected than it is too much spending. We collect enough in taxes.

Debt is caused by not enough income.

Let me guess...you're a government employee?

No. I'm an entrepreneur, Angel Investor, Business Owner, and Sugar Daddy with a total worth of $800M+/-.

Twitterers respond with how many houses do you need?
Once again, the lack of self awareness of the left is mind boggling.

Sanders Asks How Many Yachts Billionaires Need, Twitter Asks How Many Houses He Needs

One of those homes was inherited by his wife. He is a senator. It wouldn't be weird to purchase two.

He's also a socialist who constantly attacks wealth. He's a hypocrite.

Answer: the same people he grovels to when he bowed down humbly before Hillary, that pay 400K to listen to Obama speak?

What did Obama float round on in French Polynesia? A fucking wooden pallet?
How many residences does Bernie own?

Shouldn't a person making much more than you pay the same percentage of their income in federal payroll tax?

FYI, they don't, they pay much less.

I spent some time there 26 years ago. It was a nice place to land my 180 float plane then.

I honestly haven't been down there in years personally. Halibut fishing is a bit over my capacity heh Last time I went I almost ended up in the ocean, stupid thing pulled me across the deck of the boat and I lost a pole. I imagine it is though, stuff like that goes good with the tourists

All American workers need a Union to protect them from capitalist racketeers and short minded people like you.

I owned a Union company. I had the best employees. The best trained employees. I did make about 2% less Net, but I still made a pile of cash.
