"Bernie Sanders will shut down the business YOU work for!"

He's already said he's going to break up banks and shut down insurance companies. The GOP could DEFINITELY sell America on the proposition Bernie will also shut down the petroleum companies, the tobacco companies, the liquor companies or any other companies liberals supposedly don't like.
