Gotta love the hypocrisy of Socialist elites
Bernie Sanders is rich.
that's OK with me, I'm all for being rich.
But Bernie is a socialist. Sure he'll say that he's not saying no one can be successful, but at the end of the day the very fundamental belief of socialism is "from each according to ability, to each according to need."
So while Bernie may not want to tax everyone to poverty per se, by definition he is holding onto wealth and resources he simply doesn't need, instead of giving it to those who need it more.
He said he wont' apologize for writing a best selling book. A book that sold b/c of his political status of course. yet is a businessman supposed to apologize for building a successful business? An inventor for creating a better mouse trap?
No? So they don't have to give it all away either? How much do they have to give away? Who decides that exactly? Why, Bernie Sanders and his fellow millionaire elites decide it. They pass a law that says you have to give up X amount, and then we'll borrow way more against our grandkids, and then we'll give it all to these other people.
Of course he'll manage to set those amounts so he's still rich, and stay elected.
And he won't apologize for getting rich in the process, but he's happy to tell every other hard working person who has succeeded that they should feel bad and give up their stuff, and he will make it easy and decide how much.
The truth is the only honest socialists are those who give up what they own to those in greater need. If Bernie REALLY believed in socialism he'd live in a modest house, not fly on private jets, and he'd give that money to the government. They will let you pay more than you legally owe you know.
Does he over pay his taxes? Nope. If not then he's just another hypocritical elite who is happy to sell his bill of goods so he can FEEL good about himself, so long as it's you and me paying the tab.
Funny how all these billionaires are all for socialism isn't it? Funny how socialism locks the current social cast in place too. Must be a coincidence. And guilt. Lots of unaddressed guilt.

He’s not got a clue that the rich guys making stock deals primarily use other people’s money.
