Can someone explain what Bernie Sander's policies are?

[BluesLegend]

4. he wants to end fossil fuel subsidies
basic premise is the federal government shouldn't be subsidizing companies that make billions in profits each year

5. infrastructure program to rebuild/upgrade public utilities and roadways

he wants to end fossil fuel subsidies
basic premise is the federal government shouldn't be subsidizing companies that make billions in profits each year

I agree that the government shouldn't subsidize profitable companies.....or unprofitable ones.
That being said what subsidies do fossil fuels get?

What pisses the left off is that government doesn't get 100% of the fossil fuel profits like governments in some other countries do, if they did the left would tap every damn natural resource we have.

they would suck it dry

Your goddamn right they would. If you look at the left's hatred of corporations they are those corporations making profits off natural resources, timber, mining, energy, etc.

Obama gave money to tesla, solyndra, the automotive companies, etc etc etc. He has given billions to corporations now tell me how the left hates corporations

Good lord please tell me you don't vote. Obamatard gave billions of taxpayer dollars to unions which are the Democratic party's cash cow, I feel even one such as you can grasp that.

I want to know about these fossil fuel subsidies.

Have you googled "U.S. fossil fuel tax breaks and subsidies"

Go wild man, get your learn on

I'm supposed to Google one of Bernie's imaginary fears?

OMG those evil bastard oil companies, those sons-a-bitches have the gall to hire tax accountants and claim perfectly legal tax deductions on their tax returns that every other business gets to claim on their return God I hate them...

The question I was asked was what companies has Obama given money to because dems hate corporations. I was merely listing some corporations he gave tax dollars too

I was just answering your question, so you didn't like the answer. Tax breaks AND subsidies. And yes I agree Obama has made some awful decisions

Nobody said Dems hate all corporations, work on your reading comprehension. Dem's are pals with many corporations, typically the ones willing to line their pockets. But there are certain types of corporations like those I mentioned that they hate simply because they feel those corporations are stealing natural resources money that rightly belongs to government.

OK so if dems hate fossil fuel companies then why all the tax breaks and subsidies. In Obama's 1st term when dems had a majority he could have closed the tax breaks/loopholes.

Man I 100% agree with you that Democrats are corporate tools right there with Republicans. I go 1 step further and call Obama a bluedawg. You seem to be the one splitting hairs

 

[Nicholas_1982]

Obama and Hillary anti progressive policiies

1. private, for profit prisons
2. regime change in Libya
3. expansion of the Bush drone war program
4. tax payer bailouts to auto industry
5. vote for Iraq war
6. extended bush tax cuts for the rich
7. pro patriot act
etc etc etc, want me to keep listing ?

Tax breaks AND subsidies.

You have a list of the ones for fossil fuels? Or is asking for specifics too much for you?

All the tax breaks and subsidies? Why don't you list a few?

 

[Nicholas_1982]

Ok so back to the question from the OP

1. universal single payer healthcare.

we would each pay a 9% increase in federal income tax so as to have guaranteed healthcare.

what this means. currently most americans have some form of private insurance. unless you are poor or old, then you have medicare/Medicaid/CHIP or you are a veteran with VA benefits.

you would basically have no more copays or deductibles or premiums. you would just be able to walk into the doctor and get treatment no matter how much money is in your checking account.

2. tuition free college

Bernie wants to impose a 0.5% tax on every stock trade over $100 to generate the approximately $70-$80 billion needed subsidize tuition at a state school.

call it free stuff that we pay for I guess.

3. End mass incarceration

he wants to change the mandatory minimum laws and take marijuana off the federal narcotic list

4. he wants to end fossil fuel subsidies
basic premise is the federal government shouldn't be subsidizing companies that make billions in profits each year

5. infrastructure program to rebuild/upgrade public utilities and roadways

not really a policy or legislative agenda, but he wants to nominate a supreme court justice who is clearly in favor of overturning Citizens United

he also wants to move us towards public funding of elections

go to Berniesanders.com to read his positions. go to transcripts of his floor speeches, watch his floor speeches on Cspan youtube channel. I gave broad strokes.

I am not prepared to specifically quote Bernie Sanders on each position he has taken on every line of tax code involving fossil fuel companies. for 1 I have not read through every single federal rule and regulation he supports and opposes. nor would I expect that I could word for word quote his position on every single subsection of every single piece of legislation he has voted on. You are going to have to do your own research if you want that specific of an answer.
