Bernie is a millionaire. He never once proposed eliminating millionaires or billionaires and just pushed for higher taxes. For some bizarre reason, republicans still think his platform has anything to with Venezuela’s model.
I could go on and on about how the US has always been socialist in nature, but it’s pointless even to explain this to republicans.
Bernie’s brand of socialism is more like that of Canada, Denmark or Sweden. Countries with high approval ratings among citizens for their country’s healthcare system. These citizens from the latter two are the most happy populations according to a world happiness survey.
Republicans cherrypicking Venezuela really sets the coveration back.
Because in his heart like most hard core Democrat lunatics, he probably believes the American people need to be punished. Don't forget to them America is an illegitimate country, founded on oppression. Americans and mostly Americans of european ancestry have benefited by this illegitimacy according to them. We need to have wealth taken away from us and given to the rest of the world which we have oppressed and what better way to do this but through Socialism? It like Communism drift towards more and more regulation and punishment by nature especially when you are talking about these lunatic politicians who despise a good portion of this country. Is it any wonder that Bernie doesnt want to deport illegal aliens even when they dont show up for their immigration hearings? It's why they support sanctuary cities and ignore the laws they want to ignore. because inside they dont really like America. They have guilt and think we are all guilty. Capitalism gives too much power to the average person... too much freedom, to much upward mobility, thus with Capitalism in place, social justice can never occur. Socialism is needed to implement social justice according to Monte Python..... uhh I mean Bernie Sanders.
