Bernie is the only logical choice right now.

Sure, he said he'd raise taxes on the wealthy and corporations, but that's not a bad thing at all. Trickle down economics is a fucking joke that's been spoon-fed to the lower class for decades. There's a reason we're in the mess we're in right now.
The only real question is where the money goes. Bernie says that it will go to infrastructure, job creation and financing college education. That's all well and good but we need something a little more concrete than a bunch of verbal cliches.

I like Bernie though. He seems honest. He's always stood for taking the money out political campaigns, which just makes you want to trust him more.

I don't survive off handouts. You really want to defend capitalism and trickle-down economics? Please.

There are many ways to do things. Plenty of countries are running just fine on what you would call 'socialism' and their people are happy and they have good lives.

Capitalism is the reason for wealth inequality. Greed. If you work a full-time job, you should make enough money to support yourself on it. Instead, we have people below the poverty line, who require government assistance to make ends meet. And you continue to show your lack of understanding by talking about 'socialist programs'. They're just programs. Bernie is a democratic socialist. Democratic socialism is simply the support of economic intervention to promote social justice within a capitalist economy. It's not about the state takeover of industry, which is I think the fear of most conservatives.
"Democratic socialism is simply the support of economic intervention to promote social justice within a capitalist econonmy." So you're pulling for Bernie the bumbling socialist ( PC way of saying COMMUNIST ! ) so that you can get your glory hole franchises sanctioned BYTHE GOVERNMENT and have them on every street corner like a 7-11 or a Starbucks ! No WONDER you've been working SOOO hard to expand your 'hole franchise territory all over Arkansas. And you're hoping to get taxpayer funding for the expansion of those franchises by backing Bumbling Bernie early on. Typical liberal, steal from others that EARNED THEIR money by working for it so that it can be redistributed to the "cause of the moment " or lazy lay-abouts such as yourself !
