Does Bernie Sanders understand his socialism?

I hope Disir comes and clears all this up :)

He's actually pro-labor rather than pro-immigration. That's what his track record has been. So, what's the problem?
I clearly pointed that out.

No. You want to play another round of ideology about someone that you don't know and you don't give a shit about.

Sanders has continuously been against bringing in guest workers. If you don't get these people to come forward or "out of the shadows" then they are at risk for abuse and they will continue to decrease the wages of American workers. That essentially puts those that do the hiring, Democrats and the activists on notice. By telling those that do the hiring that you have to pay these people the same as you do American workers then they have zero incentive to hire them. . If you have been paying attention, it's the same rational behind unionizing. If all of these undocumented workers join unions and get the same rights as American citizens then they don't make much of a profit and it's not worth their while.

Then there are extra penalties:
Authorize and substantially increase funding for the Legal Services Corporation to provide legal representation to guest workers who have been abused by their employers. Further, employers should be required to reimburse guest workers for housing, transportation expenses and workers’ compensation.

And more:

Opposed NAFTA, CAFTA, permanent normal trade relations (PNTR) with China, the TPP, and other free-trade agreements. These deals kill American jobs by shifting work overseas to nations which fail to provide worker protections and pay extremely low wages.

That’s why Bernie has been a strong supporter of the Employee Free Choice Act, which would make it easier for workers to organize and bargain collectively.

In 2008, Sen. Sanders traveled to the tomato fields of southern Florida and met with migrant workers who were paid paltry wages for back-breaking work. After his visit, Sanders invited leaders of the Coalition of Immokalee Workers to come to Washington and testify at a Senate committee hearing where they confronted growers on abusive labor practices. The result in Immokalee, Florida was better working conditions and increased pay.

But how many more Immokalees are out there? How many fields or factories are there where people – often without legal status – are used up and thrown away? We cannot continue to run an economy where millions are made so vulnerable because of their undocumented status.

Many in the business community have argued for a massive expansion of temporary guest worker programs as the answer to the immigration issue. That is not the answer. As the Southern Poverty Law Center has documented, guest workers are routinely cheated out of wages, held virtually captive by employers who seize their documents, forced to live in inhumane conditions and denied medical treatment for on-the-job injuries.


What he will not do is demonize the powerless. He will go after those that have the power. That is the primary difference between many on the right who operate on the if you terrorize them then they will leave on their own method and Sanders.

Bernie Sanders has spoken a lot about how the trade policies have done damage not just to the US but to other countries. He has also been very vocal about the disaster that we call the IMF. It puts the Democrats and the Republicans on notice. You cannot go into another country and wreak havoc that benefits no one but those at the top and not expect people to try to leave the country or for their to be an increase in violence. This is the world that the trade policies and the IMF in combination with the World Bank has created. It does not serve the people.

As president, Senator Bernie Sanders will:
  1. Sign comprehensive immigration reform into law to bring over 11 million undocumented workers out of the shadows. We cannot continue to run an economy where millions are made so vulnerable because of their undocumented status.
  2. Oppose tying immigration reform to the building of a border fence. Undocumented workers come to the United States to escape economic hardship and political persecution. Tying reform to unrealistic and unwise border patrol proposals renders the promise illusory for millions seeking legal status.
  3. Sign the DREAM Act into law to offer the opportunity of permanent residency and eventual citizenship to young people who were brought to the United States as children. We must recognize the young men and women who comprise the DREAMers for who they are – American kids who deserve the right to legally be in the country they know as home.
  4. Expand President Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program to include the parents of citizens, parents of legal permanent residents, and the parents of DREAMERs. We need to pursue policies that unites families and does not tear them apart.
  5. Authorize and substantially increase funding for the Legal Services Corporation to provide legal representation to guest workers who have been abused by their employers. Further, employers should be required to reimburse guest workers for housing, transportation expenses and workers’ compensation.
  6. Substantially increase prevailing wages that employers are required to pay temporary guest workers. If there is a true labor shortage, employers should be offering higher, not lower wages.
  7. Rewrite our trade policies to end the race to the bottom and lift the living standards of workers in this country and our trading partners. Not only have free trade agreements like NAFTA and CAFTA hurt U.S. workers, they have been a disaster for small farmers in Mexico and Central America

He likes to throw up Denmark as we could all tell form the debates. Why didn't he mention them when he was spouting his rhetoric about immigration? Is it because they have some of the strictest laws in the world? Imagine that, a democratic socialist country not bending backwords for illegals?
What about Sweden?
Do they actually UNDERSTAND what democratic socialism means and know they cant have immigration like we do?Sweden: Why Socialism and Immigration Clash - The Last Resistance


Jimmie Akesson, the leader of the Sweden Democrats, has a simple explanation for the lack of jobs. “If you allow more asylum seekers into the country than the number of jobs you can create, the result is obvious,” he said in a recent speech. Sweden expects more than 90,000 asylum seekers this year, a huge number in a county of only 10 million people. According to the United Nations, Sweden received the most asylum applications per person in the world from 2009 through 2013. . . . Akesson calls for cutting back on asylum acceptances, requiring immigrants to pass language tests, and trimming immigrants’ welfare benefits.

Immigration To Denmark - Immigration | Laws.com

People who are seeking immigration to Denmark have a high chance of acceptance if they are well educated in respective fields of education and professional studies
So they don't let bottom of the barrel losers in. Why cant they be like Bernie? He wants to legalize criminals.. Why doesn't Denmark do that? Is it because they care about their citizens?
Another snip :
This is because there is a large job shortage in Denmark, and they are looking for immigration to Denmark in order to solve this.

LOL imagine that. No one working.. Is it because they tax the fuck out of everyone and they don't have a reason to work? Sorry, I digress..



Why cant people ever be consistent with their bullshit? It is because he is ignorant on his premise, or is it just pandering? If its just pandering, he doesn't care about America the way he says he does..

This is the world that the trade policies and the IMF in combination with the World Bank has created. It does not serve the people.

All of these issues are connected.

He's the only one bringing up these trade policies that have hurt the average worker in this country.

I said Marxist when I meant communism. sorry

But socialism is not communism. You want pure communism? Look at First Century Christianity.


Historically, socialism has been a stepping stone to communism.

Sanders doesn't have a clue. He is promising a lot of things with no idea how it would further harm the country. He admits to being socialist, but his ideas go beyond that. Whether you have socialism or communism, it still means many won't help carry the load and those who do eventually give up. All Sanders is doing is making the load heavier. There is no such thing as free. While every liberal claims they are going after the wealthy to pay for their big promises, it has never actually happened. Middle class gets the brunt of it every time.

Maybe a stepping stone that ends before it begins. Please inform us of a nation that went to communism..
