Yes, i am the owner of Black Sands Entertainment. His tax hikes wouldn't even hit me until I make 50 million a year. What in the shyt are people scared of? I am already at 600k in March but I don't have a single fear about Bernie hikes. The better you do, the less you should give a fukk.
only in America where our political spectrum is so far-right would he be considered radical. In any other developed country his policies would be mainstream positions
This. Bernie is far left economically, not socially. High taxes, wealth redistribution, and central planning. He doesn't really give a fukk about sjw issues aside from open borders
Right. Politics have moved center-right. Centrist politics favor the right as the itsbase turns out and if Texas is any indication, they are willing to do whatever it takes to make their turnout the most consistent. People have gotten so used to it that they think nothing of Medicare and social security but with the right buzzword, these white people would vote against identical measures if you dont give them a name.

Those same corporations have spent billions over the course of the last three decades to shape that public opinion. It’s even easier when they OWN the media.
America is absolutely fukked for the few decades... the sounds of the cracks are getting louder everyday
I remember Trump mentioned repealing the inheritance tax at a rally, and the whole crowd cheered.
Come to find out you don't even pay any taxes on the first $5.45 million you inherit (in 2016, now $11.58 million in 2020)
Crowd cheered like even 1% of people inherit that much money or the tax free portion is too small
Americans are just brainwashed to protect the rich at all costs, even though they would still be rich with more reasonable taxes.

What does this have to do with politics?
Sooner or later this nation is going to burst..
Government cant keep taxing and corporations cant keep slapping fees on everyday citizens, then turn around and say the economy is slow, we need people to get out and spend..
Even if you have a hiring surge, what would that help if you can't keep some of your earnings in your pocket?

I don’t really care what the political spectrum is in Europe. He’s a radical left winger here.

Free the guys
Well everything is in my opinion of course but you should be worried. It starts at a radical #...then trickles down over the years...my wife owns her own business. The amount of benefits and loopholes currently available. Keep being in business for yourself and not wanting the benefits....
Salute to being an owner tho...

Politics is an EXCHANGE!!!
Politics on the main stage is buzzwords. You can say whatever and promise whatever as long as you hit a moral point that shouldnt have anything to do with politics.I remember Trump mentioned repealing the inheritance tax at a rally, and the whole crowd cheered.

Talk to enough people and they will say “I voted for so and so because he looks like a guy I want to have a beer with.” Or the amount of Trump voters who voted for him and a couple years later are suffering for whatever reason because he followed through on a promise they did not think he would. An example being Trump wanting to out up the wall, Jethro voting for it, but then them boys come through wanting to plant the fence through his yard. fukk all Jethros.

America’s identity is based on the idea of getting rich. I’ll move here to get rich. I’ll wear this to show my wealth.
Self preservation is a slow mover of an idea.
