OF COURSE: Bernie Sanders Wants $15 Minimum Wage But Guess How Much He Pays His Interns

[Vigilante]

Yes, BUYING VOTES, the Bern doesn't even HIDE THE FACTS!!!!!

 

[playtime]

Really? There is a budget set forth for expenditures. No government agency or department can spend more than what they allotted. In case you didn't realize it... but Bernie, or any other Senator or Rep aren't 'bosses' that can pay based on what they bring in from day to day or month to month. Everything is set forth from base pay to 'locality' pay... & that comes from the OPM.

So he can't pay the help because the government won't let him? I'm still waiting for you to support that.

don't you love all the Excuses they have when they are caught Red handed. two faced hypocrites makes up that progressive/commie/democrat party. and also bald faced liars. yet so many still falls for it. that is what we are fighting against to save our country from.

I have credible links. You brought a freakin' tweet. How stunted are you?

So weasel boy... Where does the money come from 'eh? He can't go to the OPM & say please sir, may I have some more? You think he's a multi millionare like most of his colleagues? Or his 'outside DC' competitors in this race? LOL. He has his VT residence & a DC apt. DC alone takes boku bucks to live.

What is Bernie Sanders’ Net Worth?

Net Worth
Bernie Sanders’ net worth is $528,014. Our Bernie Sanders net worth calculations come from analyzing his U.S. Senate financial disclosure forms...'

So, unless you can link him being able to do it, I'll be happy to see what you got.

Well, playtoy, sounds like you're saying he's entitled to OPM (other people's money). He shouldn't have to pay because he's a socialist. DC is expensive because liberals run it, like everywhere else, they screw up everything they touch.

 

[playtime]

Not from what I read-
http://library.clerk.house.gov/reference-files/112_20120104_Salary.pdf

U.S. Congress

Internships are available in many Members’ Washington, DC, and district or state offices, as well
as in congressional committees’ offices. Internships are generally unpaid and offered year-round.

BERNIE'S interns for his VT & DC offices actually get paid $12 an hour MORE than they normally would.

Golly, yes, $12 an hour is $12 an hour more than nothing. Who knew? Why isn't he putting his money where his mouth is?

Your reading comp sucks. Bernie has NO CONTROL over what - if anything - his interns are paid.

Is he handcuffed or something? What prevents Sanders from paying these interns a living wage? Would it be illegal?

He has to follow the standards the OPM sets forth.

He doesn't have control over the amt the 'allowance' given him is.

 

[SAYIT]

Internships are not full time jobs. This is much ado about nothing. These are temporary jobs for college students to gain experience and learn about the legislative and representative process.

So far, Bernie is paying $12 more an hour that those nasty Republican's. Go Bernie!

And this is the problem with uninformed responses.

It is difficult to get a straight answer because Bernie's campaign website does not mention intern wages but a "Sander's 4 Prez" blog at Redit proudly states his Vermont interns (which number about 10) are paid $10.10/hr while his Senate staff interns are paid $12 ... the official gov't stipend for interns.

The bottom line remains Bernie's hypocritical promotion of "a living wage" ($15/hr) while his campaign is paying $10.10/hr.

Evidently someone directing his campaign info is bright enough to keep the hard info on the down-low as it would obviously be an embarrassment if our #1 socialist got caught playing "do what I say, not what I do."

[SAYIT]

Ice, I agree with you to a point. The reality is that just because you and I would not do it does not mean that isn't what has been happening or will happen. We can't just make this claim because we don't like it.

It isn't a wild claim, it's reality. Almost everybody started with low pay, people used to understand you waited until you could afford a family to start one. Now, it's expected right out of the gate with no consideration of what the help is actually worth.

Tragically, many of today's entry-level job seekers have kids before they consider how they will earn a living.

He's not taking any corporation blood money either.... the average Sanders donation is < $50 a person... & I'm willing to bet the people on his campaign are seeing the bigger picture...

Bernie Sanders is running around the country demanding a $15 minimum wage. Surely he pays his employees as much as he’s demanding other employers should, right?

Wrong. See the tweets below, via Twitchy:

Um, was under the impression you don't pay interns anything. If you do they're not interns.

It says right here on his fucking web page $12 an hour for interns, not $10 an hour, dingbat.

That's $12 more an hour than those nasty Republican's I listed.

I admire Bernie for his refusal to benefit financially from his life-long career in politics - he's never had a real job - and for his refusal to accept "corporation blood money" but that is merely deflection.

The point of this thread, in case you missed it, is his two-faced position on a $15/hr "living wage" ... a wage he demands others pay their people while he does not.

They never practice what they preach. When they demand things it's ALWAYS from someone else.

I know you are smart enough to know there is a diff between Bernie's Senate staff and his prez campaign interns so I presume you are intentionally trying to fudge the facts.

Now since you are so good at GOOGLING, see if you can find a link to what his campaign interns are being paid.

 

[bodecea]

Is Bernie Sanders a business? Are people that are working for him expecting to make a career of it and raise a family? What a stupid ass topic.

I don't think you understand the conversation. Burger flippers aren't supposed to be raising families but the socialist cry is that all workers need to make $15 minimum. Bernie doesn't practice what he preaches and lefty lies can't hide it.

Who made that rule?

Cheap bastards themselves AND it's always someone else's fault too.

[bodecea]

Minimum wage earners aren't supposed to be trying to raise families either. But explain how it's not possible to pay them whatever Bernie wants? I don't get it.

Since when? Because you say so?

No because I live in reality. Only retards think a starting wage is good to go for a family.

So you made up a rule. Lots of people end up in low paying jobs who have families. But Iceweasel says they are not supposed to be there.

I guess I was wrong about you.

Evidently you are neither smart enough to know that Bernie has Senate interns AND prez campaign interns (and that they are paid different rates) nor honest enough to admit it.

I also note you failed to find any support for your $12/hr claim about his campaign interns.

Your GOOGLE not working?

There's been a lot of trash that has come on this board since Obama was elected. Back during Bush it wasn't quite so bad. but look at it now. it's awful

If you don't like it, you are free to leave. But I'm guessing you somehow like being laughed at over your stupidity....a bit masochistic, you are.
