(587 posts)Answers give information and resolve questions. The above just rephrases Bernie's positions while answering nothing.
Laws don't trump the laws of capitalism or those of supply and demand.
If Bernie were a king and simply mandated his viewpoints become law, then we would experience a massive energy shortage, a depression the likes of which we've never seen, unemployment in the mid-double digits, jobs and business departing the USA at a rate unimagined, college being something that only the top 1% of students can hope to achieve, and the quality of our educational institutions falling to mid to lowest standards in the world.
Bernie understands nothing of economics or capitalism, so he would try to fix the above problems by just making more and more laws, thinking that he just needs to tweak the system. And every change would make things worse and worse, until the USA quickly got into a Greek-like situation where our economy simply stopped functioning.
Bernie is so dangerous because he's a foolish man, without the humility to realize that he really has no clue what he's talking about. Arrogance and stupidity is a dangerous combination.
