"Greed is good because it provides motivation and incentive to innovate. Except when it's bad like when we have economic crises." 
It's ironic because everytime I have a discussion about politics I use this quote. The greatest quote by Abraham Lincoln."A government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
at least untill i get into office and see that corporate money
Seems annoying, tbh.

"The rhetoric of the Right is disgusting, except when we use it ourselves to argue against those to our Left. Then it's great."
Reach for the realistic goals, given your socioeconomic status!!!! 
Bernie should use this exact criticism cuz her message is such trash and also argue that his movement will help lead to the House and Senate flipping to get what the people want.

Where are your politics FYI? That's never been clear, but this is a hilarious point. At least now progressives are aware that they've been paid lip service for 20 years now.
If I had to call myself anything, I'd say "classical liberal."
I don't have a horse in this election.

Lol. Fair. That's why I register independent. It's crazy to watch how HL is demonizing people that wanted to not affiliate with a party formally due to its actions. If anything, non-affiliation is a protest stance because I "should" be a Democrat, was raised by Democrats, interned for Democrats, etc.If I had to call myself anything, I'd say "classical liberal."

I would say I'm your modern progressive, but I don't share Sanders' inherent disdain for Wall Street. I mean shyt, I AM Wall Street lol. But I don't think the partners above me should be out here influencing policy. I promise you they don't give a fukk about most poor people. They think if you got educated that everything would be fixed.
I'm a registered Republican, but only to vote in the primaries. I dispiritedly voted for Obama in '12 over Mitt Romney, who I maintain could have won that election if he hadn't been forced so far to the right.
If the Libertarian Party wasn't a stalking horse for protofascists and conspiracy theorists, I'd be a Libertarian.
I like some of what Bernie has to say. He's pro gun, pro pot, pro choice, pro sentencing reform, anti police brutality, and anti corporate welfare. I'm iffy on everything else he has to say.
