Bernie's Twitter Feed 3
#26577930 - 04/04/20 07:21 PM (3 years, 9 months ago) |

Someone sent me an e-mail containing a comment written on Bernie Sanders' Twitter feed by one of his supporters, which points out some obvious facts:
"When Bernie said everyone should have healthcare as a right,you called it socialism..now you’re begging for free tests and treatment and healthcare that is not tied to your job......
When Bernie said workers should be guaranteed paid leave y’all called it socialism,now y’all are begging for paid leave as places close and people are laid off.
When Bernie said every child in America should have high-quality child care and universal school meals you called it socialism,now schools are closed and you need child care and food for your kids.
When Bernie wanted to cancel all student loan debt to help millions struggling Americans y’all called it socialism,now you’re begging for student loan relief...
When Bernie wanted national rent control so landlords can’t jack up rent prices as high as they want and kick tenants out unfairly,y’all called it socialism,now you’re begging for landlords to not evict tenants during this time..
When Bernie all people should be making a living wage of at least $15/hr you called it socialism,now y’all are literally relying on those same people at the grocery store,food service,child care,cleaners and other minimum wage jobs to SURVIVE
Bernie has been fighting for basic human rights his entire life and it took a global pandemic for you people to realize he’s been right this whole time..honestly it’s time to give this man a chance..Bernie2020🇺🇸
I don't think I could have written it better myself.

I didn't hear the feed, but I saw him on Bill Maher yesterday. He talked for 10 minutes completely clearly and intelligently about all the major measures that need to be taken right now to get us through this humanely.
As I said before, if the pandemic had gotten this bad before Super Tuesday, everything would have been different. We would have had our FDR.

It's sad when it takes a pandemic for people to realize that striving for an egalitarian society is actually good. Unfortunately, as you stated, it's too late in the game now for that to be realized under Bernie's leadership.

Yup always fighting for that quick orgasm and not caring about the life that is left from it.
Emotion before logic, that's the human way it seems and those who understand this have exploited it to oblivion at this point.

This is such nonsense. Everything Bernie promises is fantasy land nonsense if not downright unnecessary.
Its not a solution he promises, he promises false hopes and dreams and you guys are buying it.

Fantasy not because it can't be done. Fantasy because our corporate government won't let it be done because it requires them to raise taxes on the super rich and make them pay more than the rest of us like they used to.

Taxing the super rich more isn't that terrible a problem for 99% of the population.

How is free health care and education a bad idea? Having an educated and healthy population is a bad idea? Lmao. The only reason that MIGHT be legit as to not want these things is how to fund it, which, really isnt an issue....just end all the meaningless war....there is your funding right there.

Bad idea because it rewards people for bad decisions, like most socialist programs.

How does that reward people for bad decisions? People who work forty hours a week and cant afford insurance, dont deserve insurance because they didnt decide to do something else for a living?

Correct. No one "deserves" it. Its something you invest in if you determine you need it.

This is why I think anyone that makes less than 75k a year in the US should seriously consider suicide. At that point, what's the purpose of life? Your life is going to be a march of pain, and somebody else will take your money.

We should start charging the freeloaders. I don't get why it's so hard to understand?
