The New Yorker: "Bernie Sanders’s New Deal Socialism"

[jwirr]

19. One of the things I know that Eisenhower did was add a

whole bunch of people to Social Security - farmers like my dad and I think waitresses like my granddaughter. And as the article said AA and isolated people.

I have long said I do not care that people are rich - I care that people are poor. Today the Rs and the businesses that support them no longer understand or care about the lives of those on the bottom. They want ALL the money and do not care that we need jobs, a roof over our heads, education for our children, health care, and a living when they are old - in other words they want those of us who are not in the 1% to live as if we are in a third world country. And they are keeping the people who do live in those third world country in poverty as well.

As Bernie says they do not want to pay their share of the taxes.
