idk, you're the one that wants to vote for a socialist with multiple houses. Imagine voting for a socialist millionaire. what a joke.

Social Security, Medicare, child labor laws and agriculture subsidies are all examples of U.S. socialism in full scale. Not to mention infrastructure, public education, and public utilities. Bernie wants housing, healthcare, and education to be an unalienable right. It is entirely possible for these to be achieved with, a short term blow to taxpayers, but a long-term benefit to all U.S. citizens for generations. Denouncing policies by calling them "communism" or "socialism" leaves no room for discussion and nuance.

FYI voting for a capitalist billionaire felon is infinitely worse. Bernie's net worth is 3 million for a guy whos pushing 90. If you went through the 1960s all the way to now by saving you would be a millionaire too. I'm surprised his net worth isn't higher.

You can't make someone else carry out a "right." That's insane.
