Yeah this is the trial ballon. They bout to pin every atrocity committed by a communist regime on Bernie's head and make Democrats defend it. It's honestly their best play. Prepare to see hundreds of thousdands of dead bodies piled up by the Khmer Rouge and Soviet Union on your tv screens for the next 9 months.
Everything I warned about is happening.
Sanders is in real time fukking us in the general.

I was playing around with tax calculators between the USA and the UK to see what the difference is.
If you make $50,000 in the US, that’s roughly $38,000 after tax (may vary by state). I get that people contribute to 401ks and health plans but imma keep it simple.
The equivalent of $50,000 in the U.K. is 38,618 pounds. That’s roughly 29,796 pounds after UK taxes are taken out which is equivalates back to $38,577 in US dollars. The UK workers makes roughly the same post tax earnings in terms of purchasing power as the US worker.
If you jump the salary to $150,000, the US worker has roughly $100,700 after tax (may vary by state). The U.K. worker ($115,854 is the British Pound equivalent of $150,000) has 72,557 pounds after tax which is roughly equivalent to $93,900 in US dollars on a post tax basis. It’s $7,000 more than the US person had to pay but in the scheme of things it’s not a big deal.
Why is it that the British pay a comparable tax rate to us but they have various social services that we don’t in America
Idk six figure salaries are pretty rare in Europe though

I wonder what would happen if a Democratic presidential candidate campaigned on universal healthcare while Republicans spent years calling him a socialist.

I wasn't speaking on the transitional aspect at all there though, im speaking explicitly to the fact that since its inception Liz's plan will have qualifications which makes it decidedly NOT universal healthcare. I know it feels like im mincing words but I explain the difference below.
Yes she will be negotiating within her party i e vs insurance lobbyist. The amenable aspect to warren's plan is the fact that it has qualifications and thats where I feel it will get watered down to the point that only the those in poverty will qualify.
Its a negotiation weakness m4all doesnt have. And this is ultimately where I feel Liz's inauthenticity will screw us. Regardless if it happens via republicans or
Agree to disagree. Well written tho, have some rep
We're about to witness the greatest opposition dump in history
You can't distance yourself from the guy leading the ticket. Republicans don't do that shyt.
She's gonna get casted as a goddamn communist and lose her seat that she JUST won for the first fukking time.
You're so fukking naive its insulting.
You can't show party unity if you IMMEDIATELY have to jump out the window distancing yourself from that candidate.
I was literally showing y'all yesterday how down ticket democrats are moving away from Sanders to help their reelection chances. This is further proof that Sanders is TOXIC to down ballot races!!!!
