The righties want to pay down the debt. But they don't want to pay taxes. Or even have the .1% , people they will never know, pay their fair share.
We're giving tax breaks to rich corporations and wealthy speculators and spending obscene amounts of money on war. How long can this go on before we go under?
You mean like they did during the Eisenhower administration, when we created one of the greatest infrastructure programs of our history and entered into a period of unprecedented prosperity. What a horrible idea.
Bernie like other Democrats believe that no matter how much you earn, it is not your money.
The man is nothing but a socialist, and if he doesn't like the the system in the US, he is more that free to leave to a country more to his liking, say Cuba for instance.
Not in the least. Democrats are promoting giving back, something that un-American sociopaths like you can't fathom.
At least Repubicans have a choice. You fools are being force fed Hillary. Sadly she is the best the Democrats have. You fools can't fill a sardine can with your bench......Bernie is a loon who's campaign's sole purpose is to make Hillary appear centrist and same.
Of course, you are wrong again, but if you don't like him then you don't have to vote for him. You can have your choice of any one of the crazies in your clown car.
You want people like Bernie to lie, and keep their mouths shut, rather than say what they feel?He's a communist disguised as a socialist.
Good luck with that Bernie. Although the left is so fucking crazy it would not surprise me if this idiot won.

Once more for the permanently dense:
The top 10% of America's earners pay 68% of personal federal income taxes.
68%.
How much would satisfy you? 78%? 88%? 108%?
BTW, the bottom 50% of Americans pay no personal federal income tax. Zippo. Zilch. Nada. No skin in the game. Free ride.
Talk about inequality. The government has it all while you're at their mercy under his ideas.
Bernie Sanders A 90 tax rate sounds fine to me Hot Air

"Democrat presidential candidate, Bernie Sanders, has no problem with taking 90% of your income"
Incorrect.
Sanders isn't a democrat, he's an independent, and his views are not representative of democrats, which is why he won't be the nominee.

We have had that tax rate before and the country prospered and people still got rich
Thank Eisenhower
Real tax rates were a lot lower. Even Levine concedes that “not many people paid that much. Only three baseball players — Ted Williams, Joe DiMaggio and Willie Mays — got there.” Indeed, the top effective tax rate was probably somewhere between 50-60% because of a tax code full of loopholes. Now, that’s still higher than today’s top effective tax rate of around 30%. But those 1950s tax rates actually generated less tax revenue than subsequent periods of lower rates. From 1950 to 1963, income tax revenue averaged 7.5 percent of GDP; that’s less than in the Reagan years when rates were being slashed. This could suggest that rates are right around the Laffer Curve equilibrium point in the current economy. Indeed, the following chart from the WSJ makes this calculation over a variety of time periods:
Emotion should not be playing a role in political decisions.Talk about inequality. The government has it all while you're at their mercy under his ideas.

Sanders lost all my emotional support by running on the Democratic ticket. If he's an Independent, run on their ticket. Just a craven sell-out grandstanding right now.

I just love when Marxists bring up the 80% income tax rates of the 1950s as "proof" that high taxes result in prosperity. It shows how ignorant and uneducated you are when it comes to economics.
