Bernie Sanders Is Right

What these idiots who like to claim to be republicans don't understand is that Eisenhower who was a republican had tax rates for the rich at 90%. This used to be an American problem now the republican party is the party for the rich bought and paid for. Guess the democrats are all that's left...and most of the time its not even them its just one man right now who is actually an independent.
 
I don't think it is possible to go long as an adult in the US without paying some tax either directly or indirectly.

I don't think the justification for supporting people with tax dollars is based on how many tax dollars they gave but their needs.

If you don't want your government providing things like health care for the poor then I am sure there are a couple nations left that still don't do that.

Yes and he doesn't get it because he and others don't understand what builds a strong economy and the importance of a strong economy to the country.
I give you 1932-1970 as an example.

Because they're greedy and wanted slave labor.
Because the purpose of a corporation is to turn a profit. Jobs left because American labor priced itself out of the market.
All you can do is bitch. If all consumer electronics were suddenly made here, you'd be bitching that you can't afford them.
 
Fuck that guy. He bitches about the top 1% controlling most of the money. They also pay most of the taxes. If they're supporting everybody else, they SHOULD have more control than the ones who don't contribute shit.
So then obviously people who make more money than you should have more power over you. I'm sure that makes perfect sense to a royalist or a plutocrat, or just some fucking moron.....but it certainly isn't American.
It would be pointless to try and explain capitalism to someone with a socialist mentality because you've been programmed to believe that any wealth created should belong to the government to distribute as they see fit (except if it's YOUR wealth). That's not what this country was founded on and it's what has made us the strongest economic force in the world for over 2 centuries. But I may as well be talking to a wall because you think you have a right to what everyone else has, whether you work for it or not.
You can't explain capitalism because you obviously don't know anything about it.
Says life's loser who can't do shit without the government doing it for him.

Well, yes. They were made here before and they were more expensive but we got paid more and had better bennies...the women stayed home. We bought the goods then but we couldn't afford them now so much because in the early 70's carter started removing tariffs which allowed the corporations to go and go they did.
The effort snowballed and our jobs with them. There are virtually no tariffs now but when we export WE pay tariffs! Its the corporations purpose to turn a profit? What is a country's purpose?
What we need is to go back to the policies that made us healthy and get rid of the policies that are killing our middle class and working.(which used to mean the same thing). These greedy corporations were making plenty of money before the exodus...they're just fucking greedy, like you, want it all and don't, like you, give a damn for the country.
And the imports from china are cheap, poorly made junk.

The country's purpose is very clearly explained in the US Constitution. I suggest you read it some time.

Hint:
Nowhere in the document does it authorize the government to take my wealth and give it to people who sit on their asses.
