Fifteen Bucks an hour minimum wage! f*ck it! Let's do it!

If I was an American, he would get my vote. He seems to be the only voice of reason and sanity out there.

[notyou2]

after WWII and right on into the 70's or early 80's people earned a decent wage they could live on. Gas pump jockies could raise a family, struggle, but it could be done. Department store clerks more easily.

Try raising a family on a department store clerks earnings now.

Sanity?

Bernie Sanders, Progressive Enemy #1 (Politico)

Sanders has been sandbagged by Black Lives Matter protesters for not prioritizing solutions for institutional racism, knocked by immigrant advocates for arguing that too much immigration would depress wages and had his bona fides on campaign finance reform challenged by new Democratic party presidential aspirant Lawrence Lessig.

Bernie Sanders Gun Control Problem (Washington Examiner)

In 1993 Sanders opposed the Brady Bill, which required background checks and a five-day waiting period for most gun purchases. Sanders had at least the tacit support of the National Rifle Association when he was first elected to Congress in 1990, beating a pro-gun control Republican incumbent.

Milquetoast Bernie Sanders, Senator from Lockheed-Martin (People's Voice)

Sanders has exhibited a history of limited opposition to war. After his hawkish support for military action in the 1999 against Serbia, one of his advisors quit. In that same year, antiwar activists occupying Sanders's office faced arrest by the police. Sanders did not vote in Congress to oppose the war in Afghanistan and instead voted for the authorization of funds for the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Dissent on Israel Not Permitted at Sanders Event (The Intercept)

In 2004, while President George W. Bush was running for re-election, he developed a sinister reputation for aggressively banishing political dissent from his events. Fast forward to 2015, this past Saturday, when Bernie Sanders, an increasingly viable contender for the Democratic presidential nomination, held one of his biggest campaign rallies to date. Among those visitors were a number of young activists from Boston Students for Justice in Palestine, who were curious about Sanders’ position on the occupied territories. They had a sign with them; in a playful nod to one of Sanders’ campaign slogans, it simply asked, “Will Ya Feel The Bern For Palestine?”

But staffers working for a candidate widely viewed as one of the most progressive members of the Senate were apparently not happy. Security was made aware of a threat: Some students who support Sanders were holding a sign with a question on it. A tactic right out of the Bush campaign “playbook” went into action. In a brief cell phone video of the incident, security staff can be seen threatening to arrest the students if they didn’t leave the premises.

Bernie Sanders isn’t as progressive as you think (Washington Post)

Beyond the hyperbole, however, must be real policy. And on that score, this self-described socialist from New England is less progressive — in the real effect of his proposals — than he sounds. His promises, according to a new analysis from the Wall Street Journal, would cost the government an eye-popping $18 trillion over 10 years. Instead of carefully crafting policy to help those who need it, he would shower largess on young and old, poor and well-to-do.
