Redistribution of wealth never works. Bernie is a far more dangerous candidate than Hillary would have been. That being said, both terrible, TRUMP TRAIN 2020!!
If you would have basic economics knowledge you would know theres no way he can fix anything close to that. Just taking the whole market cap of the FAANG(microsoft) stocks would barely cover medi care for 2-3years.
Any socialism he portrays will never work in a big country like the US. Just certain aspects of it.
How is he going to pay off the debts? The biggest economic drivers are big companies nowadays. If you tax them they will just lay off the workforce and adapt automation even faster. With a debt to gdp ratio of over 100% there has to be some sort of defaulting. He has no idea how to deal with that.
All he sees are the big companies, and ignores anything below. How will he help the small companies? Surely not by taxing the rich. Why would anyone try to grow their business just so they can be taxed 50% after a certain limit

He is quite logical person with practical approach. Quite rational and expressive. Good choice
In honor of Bernie Sanders official announcing his presidential run for 2020 today
DO YOU FEEL THE BERN, BROTHER?!?!?

This screen shot is from a group called (ironically) Bernie or Bust. The Victor in this post refers to Victor Tiffany, the founder of Revolt Against Plutocracy and one of the originators of the original #bernieorbust pledge that shook things up so drastically for the DNC in the last election cycle. Some Bernie supporters were frustrated when the Revolt Against Plutocracy Steering Committee decided to ask pledge takers to vote for Jill Stein in the general election. Because of this frustration, some abandoned ship on the pledge strategy that was supposed to leverage Hillary Clinton voters, delegates, and superdelegates to switch to Bernie in the primaries, or else.
This is the facebook group where Andrea is an admin:

Arguably, Joe Biden cares even less about poor people than does Donald Trump. If anyone has the audacity, in their middle class suburban comfort, to allow Joe Biden to win the primaries by not applying leverage when there was a chance, then they deserve whatever revolutionary zeal ends up getting directed at them. The pitchforks are coming.

The question I would like to ask Andrea is: Should Bernie supporters be more loyal to progressive ideals or to a team/tribe/party? A lot of us have rooted for the Democrats in the same way we root for the Steelers or the Eagles. It’s a type of tribalism. Some of us are/were Democrats because our family members for generations have been Democrats. It’s almost like growing up with a particular religious faith. When Brady lets some of the air out of the game ball, it’s terrible if you are a Colts fan but perhaps different if you favor the Pats. What I’m insinuating here is that when someone on our team lets the air out of the game ball, rigs an election, oppresses people of color, oppresses poor people, oppresses workers, ruins the environment, bombs the shit out of innocent people around the world for the benefit of oil companies and the military-industrial complex, allows corporations to exploit everyone and rig all three branches of our government (not to mention mainstream media), do we look the other way because it’s our home team? Trying to keep the Dem team (or Team USA for that matter) “winning” is not winning if lots of other people are losing. That’s zero sum thinking. It’s untenable and ugly. We all end up losing.
If anyone on the Bernie team truly dislikes Jill Stein, for example, I would assume it’s because of what she stands for. However, that makes no sense because she stands for almost exactly the same things Bernie stands for. Ruling that out, I have to assume that they’re pissed because someone is trying to steal their teammates. Is it my place to tell them that they should rise above these feelings for the sake of not only their team, but everyone else on earth, too? You decide.
We need to 'splain some things to landline-using Biden supporters who are talking to pollsters. There already are too many Busters to have any chance to get a sock puppet like Biden, Harris, Buttigieg, O'Rourke, or the like, into the White House. If you shove one of them down our throats again, we absolutely guarantee you that a Republican will win in the general election. #wepledgedso
If you don't like this outcome, then #unitebehindbernie is the only option available.

Meanwhile, FaceBook is putting its thumb on the scales and making it impossible to repeatedly post links to the Bernie or Bust Pledge 2.0 from Revolt Against Plutocracy
Or the link to the Political Action Fundraising Link.
Thinking Outside the Bernie Box - Bernie or Bust 2.0
Even though Bernie made a deal with the Devil/DNC, he told us not to listen to him. I believe that we need to tell Biden supporters to wake up, it's not going to happen. Not only do 20% of Bernie's supporters intend not to vote for a democrat if Bernie is cheated out of the nomination (Emerson Poll), in the 2016 elections, 12% of Bernie supporters voted for Trump. This was especially devastating in swing states.
From the shenanigans that already are being played in California with the plans to purge progressive voters ( ), it's clear that the DNC plans to rig it again. David Brock and other powerful establishment figures are actively seeking to*#stopsanders. The fix is already in.
What will we do about it? Bernie or Bust is the best answer. Have you pledged to trash the Democrats if Bernie is not the nominee?

I keep landing in FaceBook jail. I need new recruits for the Bernie or Bust Army! They don't want this shit spreading.

If we can pay for the military-industrial complex, we can afford to forgive student loan debt.
Bernie is a full blown communist, you should go watch some of his slightly older interviews.
Che and Castro are like his fucking idols, he wanted to suck Cuba's dick...and look how Cuba ended up...
He's also old as fuck...he should just stop trying lol...2016 was his chance and the DNC fucked him over.
