I'm a Fox News viewer, often considered a MAGA, I agree with everything Bernie said here. I watched the whole thing. But my definition of fair tax is equal tax percentages, which is different from him. Other than that, I'm agreeing. His upper tax is ridiculous.
@@catabakies69 I think the issue with the tax system in regards to wealth is that it specifically targets income, which is not where the upper echelon of the wealthiest people make their money. That is the prime thing that needs to be addressed.

He's too real for this country! A large number need too suffer to become humble! Republicans deserve every drop of what trump has coming! Evil horrible man!
yea that and everything he said only helps empower the top .1% and weaken any threats to their dominance. -. destroy the 2nd amendment and any natural checks on the oligarchs power. - cause massive inflation to destroy any semblance of an upper class. which are the real threats to the oligarchs. they are fine if a bunch of McDonald's workers make 100000k a year. they don't want people from the rich class starting up their own IT, pharmaceutical and health food and distribution companies that could rival them. so instead theyre content to destroy the currency and put a bunch of red tape laws in place to prevent anyone from starting up any business with real value. so they hire this clown to carry water for them

As a Brit, I've heard Bernie speak a few times he is without a doubt an extremely intelligent man, passionate about change in the U.S.a man speaks hopefully for those who have no voice. We are also facing big problems with the powerful, corrupt and greedy hear in the UK . Big unions are calling for industrial action not seen in decades against multi million £ pound companies who making vast profits at the expense of their workforces. That wealth isn't trickling down to less well off in society and there is a growing shift here . People have simply had enough.
Billionaire insanity greed- hoarders pollution- profit indifference to environment and living things in it is an untreated obsessive mental deficiency . Those who want not need nothing and holy bummer do not get off the abuser tread mill.
In all my years of watching politicians ,no one has the love and passion of this man. Trying to look after the children's future,and the working class🇺🇲🥰🥰💙❤️⚖️🇺🇲
This man want to appropriate the riches WEALTH but wants to keep his.Socialism is communism's bastard cousin and always shows up later and pretends to be socialism..
Trying to look after the working class ? How would he know anything about the working class being that he's never worked a working class job in his entire life..
@@victorseger6044 You don't need to be working class to support the working class, you just need to listen, most of politicians are very bias. That's why he's an independent, he'll even throw a democrat under the bus from time to time. Seeing all your posts there's no doubt of your ideology
@@victorseger6044 Bernie was a carpenter for many years before he went into politics. He was in a union. His parents were working class and struggled! Religion is often a very poor measure of a person, and Bernie is Jewish but like another Jewish carpenter from over 2000 years ago, Bernie spreads the message of human decency than anyone else with such a high profile.
The US has a law called the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. If you give a "donation" to not only a foreign politician seeking re-election but to anyone in government, it is considered corruption. Yet in the US it is considered the norm and acceptable before the law.
Representative government was lost as a result of three supreme court rulings, the most famous being citizens United. The courts say that money is speech, these are the same people that said corporations are people, and Trump's crazy?
Seems like in 🇺🇸, just so long as you cannot tie specific dollars to specific votes, anything short of that is allowed. When called out on this, officials tend to claim “innocent until proven guilty”. But that principle is supposed to apply to private citizens going about their everyday business, not to those holding positions of statutory power. If you are given such power, then you must be seen to exercise it impartially and transparently, otherwise you should be sacked.
Many of us our listening to the truth - meaning Bernie Sanders. The sad fact is he likely would've received the 2016 Presidential nomination however the Clinton's financed the DNC from 2015-2016 & had the DNC covertly sabotage Senator Sanders nomination. Then in 2020 the wealthy political elites worked behind the scenes to make sure Bernie didn't get the nomination again. Many millions are actually listening to everything Senator Sanders says or talks about. The smart, caring, compassionate people know Bernie is 1 of the most honest, caring public servants to EVER hold public office. It saddens me every single day, literally, that Bernie isn't the President because he should be - why? - because he's the most qualified & actually cares. I pray Senator Sanders runs in 2024... even if he has to run as an Independent because the Democratic establishment has screwed Bernie over twice already 2016 & 2020.
I've said it many times before, but MAGA are just racist progressives. There is a lot of common ground that can be had with them if we can get the hatred of marginalized people out of them.
“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.” ― Carl Sagan
WOW. That is one powerful quote.... New to me. Many thanks. I truly believe we as a nation caught the Orange One's bamboozle just in time...barely...for us to now have another chance for Sen. Sanders' consistent, experienced leadership.
Carl Sagan is one of the few celebrities I (mostly) trust. RIP. But I think he was missing a couple variables in this problem; selfishness and community. I'm not talking about our universal selfishness or self preservation, but about those born without a conscience and the ones conditioned to never develop theirs. These selfish people gravitate toward (bootlick) other selfish people with more power, happily lying, applying social pressure, threatening, and much worse for their cult leader because it elevates them as well. The power they have comes more often than not from their ability to provide community to people who have no other community, and remove members from the community at will. Being without a community is devestating to your mental and physical wellbeing, and our "individualist" society has done everything in its power to destroy any community that doesn't help the status quo, so there are a lot of lonely, desperate people out there willing to suspend their disbelief or even just lie in order to get or maintain a support network.
Bernie, the only American who always thinks of the under privledged and the big [icture. Love what he says and what he stands for. Does not bend in the furious storms of congress, aiways consistent and ought to be Prez. Go Bernie!
It's a shame that Bernie wasn't given an opportunity by the voters.....it no longer matters who's president at this point, especially with McConnell blocking everything that might possibly help. The republicans and trumpism have the nation in a death spiral, we're in a rapid decline, to say the very least! And....with so many ignorant, uninformed, brain washed people believing all of the right wing propaganda media's lies along with the greedy, self centered politicians undermining everything that might have a chance to improve our lives...well, we're all pretty much f*cked! There's no sense sugar coating the reality....the United States is now only a few years away from becoming another failed democracy. AKA: another shit hole country. 🤷🏻♂️

That's by design. The mainstream media doesn't want you to hear Bernie's words because they're in on the grift (they're also run by billionaires) and they don't want the American people to rise up against them. There's just so much corruption in this country that they can pay to talk louder than Bernie and make people think he's a lunatic.
Bernie, I love you dearly. You are a glimmer of hope in a hopeless system. I apologize that so many citizens of this country are too ignorant to realize that they've been had.
Truly incorruptible. If only politicians had a backbone like him and weren’t swayed by money. I bet if you tossed a dollar into a river of shit, Lindsey Graham would go diving for it.
As a Canadian I feel happy to live here and know that if I need medical treatment it’s covered. I need not fear the financial strain of a catastrophic illness. At 75 I’m very grateful because last year my husband nearly died from a heart attack. He had a triple bypass surgery. He walk out of the hospital looking forward to more good years and no debts. Our Medicare paid for it all. That’s freedom! I hear of Americans who have been financially devastated by medical bills. It must be a big concern for many people there.
For a lot of people in America everything is a constant concern. Will I be able to pay my rent or will I get thrown out onto the street? Will I be able to buy food or will I starve? If I need an operation or dental work will I die or have to live in pain? It even goes beyond that to smaller things. If my car breaks down and I can't afford to fix it how will I get to work? And things like will I get to go on vacation this year or get to go to a sporting event, well those things were gone a long time ago.
Housing, food and medical care are considered essential and a basic right for all Canadians. It’s not thought of a Socialism. We have a “social democratic” system of government. I see how many U.S. citizens struggle with keeping afloat and hope that that can change. Things are slipping away on this highly stressed, ‘corporate’ planet. We need to make changes ever more quickly to slow the pace of Climate change and the disintegration of societies. We all should be free to live up to our great potential as humans.
If anything the US (conservatives) can’t even call us far-leftist since Canada’s policy isn’t even as left leaning as a good amount of European/Scandinavian countries. It’s not that we’re super socialist, they’re just so far from it that it seems that way.
I remember taking an ambulance one time because I got jumped never asked for an ambulance to arrive but since I was unconscious I wasn’t able to tell them I didn’t need one I need up getting a hospital bill for $700
Thank you Bernie!! I have worked since I was 12 years old, first at my father's store, then at other low paying jobs throughout my life. I am one that you speak about, I am retired age-wise, but not financially. Currently out of a job, but looking at age 78 - not easy finding one. I can't keep living like this below the poverty line. Thank you for standing up for us Americans who seem to be invisible to our legislatures and are screaming for some attention & consideration.
Hang on. Seniors are getting an 8% SS raise in ‘23 plus more help from Biden. I wanted Bernie but angels and higher beings are on Biden’s mission and he is a good man too
Serious question: why did you spend your whole life working low-paying jobs? Does anyone else hear this? Low-paying jobs are exactly that: low-paying. You can't legislate away poverty, ask Romania. So the question is why didn't you take advantage of the socioeconomic mobility America offers? If you learn a skill you can earn double what you get at a "low-paying" job. Well, idk now you used to. Now you have to learn a skill, and then improve upon it because burger flippers now make $20/hr, so now you need a higher-level cert to make more money. Low level admin jobs that were perfect for low-skilled, but highly-educated people like recent college grads now pay the same as a job that requires absolutely nothing. I don't understand the mentality where you work in one job your entire life and expect your pay to scale with someone who takes risks to learn new skills, go back to school and earn a degree, complete a certification, or start a business. Promote _yourself._ Do you believe you stop developing after childhood? Please answer why you think you should work at the same level and get more just because you're older.
@@andrerodriguez7603 spoken like the 1% wannabe but you're missing the whole point Bernie and Jayne are making... a lot of people don't have that to invest and even if they did, it's being used up rapidly just to live.

Bernie, you forgot to mention that between the oil companies and the FED, EVERYONE JUST GOT AN IMMEDIATE CUT IN PAY! (10-15% ?) What could possibly go wrong?
Bernie was all for the incentives that created the non-working class during the pandemic that basically caused the inflation/recession we're in now. He talks like he has all the answers, but he has none. Thank God the DNC threw him under the bus - again. But he's a prolific writer. In fact, he’s written more books than successfully passed pieces of legislation, of which there have been seven, 2 of which were for naming post offices, and a third was to declare a “Vermont Bicentennial Day”
@@kurtvonfricken6829 Winning votes doesn't mean you're better . This is painfully obvious with the grossness of the Trump Era. With all the corruption of our politics, it's no wonder Bernie hasn't won. This is evidence enough of him being the only actual person qualified.
Thanks Bernie! We know your on our side. I caucused and voted for you. Thank you for being a voice of reason, fairness, and compassion, amongst the very worst people of our society. Namely the other senators and congress people.
What a powerful and thought provoking common sense speech! My goodness, all of the things he mentioned are for the good of ALL. And yet, so many Americans continue to vote for people who will keep them poor and more importantly without decent affordable healthcare which is pretty standard in most countries. America needs to take the MONEY and corruption out of politics! No wonder you can't get anything done in both the House of Reps and the Senate! The rest of the world is NOT buying your corrupt brand of 'Democracy'!
One of the big reasons I see right now, the Republicans are telling the Latino population that American will be a socialistic government if the democrates continue to give freebies like medical treatment to all Americans and they are saying that the Social Security benefits are Intitlement programs that must be taken away due to the funding for such a program is draining the funds that effects the over all economy. That is a big lie, the social security administration is not part of the American economy. Most of the Latino voters have lived in their own country and seen what socialism has to offer in the way of living and are strongly against it. They believe the capitalist conservatives are good for them. Let's face the fact that American citizens are now the new minority and we must try to help those who don't understand that we as Americans have lived under the conservative government where the wealthy got the breaks in taxes and the working class paid more without raising minimum wages.
umm, the people did want him, the majority vote during primary went to bernie. The DNC stole his nomination and handed it to Hilary to maintain the power of the establishment! We have to stand up and some how have to create a 3rd party that actually represents the people and not the corporations!!
We donated to Bernie's campaign since he announced he was running for President. I voted for him twice as I had to write in his name in on our CA ballot. A small price to pay to support a man like Bernie.
"We" did not have the power to do that. The political bosses in the Democratic party used their money (billionaires') and connections to mainstream media (billionaires') and well known corporate Democratics (Obama, Clyburn, Warren, etc.) to stop Bernie. We had no choice. That is not to say that "we" are not gaining that power. Go progressives.
He maybe old but BERNIE ain't slow. BERNIE still knows what the people want, need, and the rights this government should be delivering. And the people know that BERNIE speaks for them. Thank you, BERNIE, for bucking the winds of FOX with breezes of truth and keeping the fight going!
Bernie is great at identifying problems. He just doesn’t realize, that his solutions are what led us here. He thinks he can fix things by increasing the same measures that caused the breakdown.

Donald Trump never earned his wealth, although he has lost it several times over but managed con people and banks in nothing but theft because he got it for lies he told and fake charitable organizations. He got his start from his dad who was also a flim flam man. The kochk bros were given their wealth by taking advantage of others!

@@haroldbrown5308 I feel the same way! And, over many months, have learned that MILLIONS of us do, too. An Illinois native, I first "met" Bernie in 1963, from a Chicago newspaper photo of a policeman helping him to the ground for marching to support school integration in the city. A You Tube of it is still available, "Bernie and Civil Rights in Chicago." The NAACP got him out the next day. Over the decades Sanders has continually been in the front lines fighting for the causes that are most important to me: civil, economic, gender, racial and social justice...and peace. He is now the chair of the powerful Senate Budget Committee, also a continuing member of the Veterans Committee after a progressive tenure as chair. Along the way, he's earned national honors from both the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars and is the recipient of two university honorary degrees. For a youngster, Bernie has a great record as a public servant--starting as the thrice re-elected mayor of Burlington, Vermont's largest city-- and continuing as a US representative, now in a 3rd term as a Us senator. At 84, I would be so glad for the opportunity to volunteer for him again. #NotMeUs.
Bernie nailed it as usual. I'm in my young sixties and I'm receiving barely enough to eat from my SS but no more. But I fear the future for the youngest Americans is bleak. By the time the leaders of this and other countries react it'll be too late. Climate change is at our doorstep and if people think the wealth gap is too extreme now, just wait till twenty years from now.
@@keyoke69 Corporate Democrats are center-right Bernie is center-left. The Republicans are right-wing to far-right. Right-wing = corporate interests Left-wing = interests of Labor Western Democracy = Liberal Democracy Do you have a problem with Sanders bowing down to the election results?
The problem is that the American people of all political stripes have been convinced that we don't need an FDR or JFK ("Ask not..."), we need a Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump who make them feel good about themselves instead of solving problems. Of course, Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump personally had no problems. They were rich and had gotten rich in useless entertainment jobs. (That's where Trump made most of his own money, not real estate.) Entertainment is nice icing on the cake if everything else -- education, health care, the environment, nutrition, and fairness in society -- is already securely taken care of. That's not the way the American people think today and they have sold much of their freedom to the rich (why should your boss be able to send you email at home or while you're in a restaurant or playing beach volleyball with your family and friends?), and become beholden to them, unable to ignore that email, because they do not feel secure. Only the rich feel secure. Even someone as incompetent as Donald Trump can muddle his way through life knowing he will survive somehow, because he's rich or perceived to be rich. Bernie is basically right on the nose about the problems we are facing, who caused them and who is definitely not going to solve them for us. As long as we continue to elect lawmakers who do not serve us, the people, as a whole, this is only going to get worse.

This is where the greedy corporations are taking clear advantage of us all the worming and middle class. We are the ones who hold the weight of this country and throughout the globe to keep life going. When things opened back up they rely on us to come back to work and make them money. Then as time goes on they increase the product prices and the goods sitting in cargo shipment containers. We need to really thing about the direction we are headed in this country. Our rights are disappearing slowly.
He lost me when I found out that he owns three houses while many Americans don’t have one. Linsey is a RINO anyway so you should never take anything he says seriously. I never understood how Bernie could rant about how outsourcing “ American jobs “ to foreign workers is corporate greed and how we should make sure Americans are taken care of first, but then calls anyone who opposes open borders xenophobic.

Lots and lots of thanks for speaking not only on behalf of the the American nation but on behalf of many others around the world, it is such a great sense of responsibility towards humanity, God pless you.
For the life of me I cannot understand how anyone could view anything Bernie just said as controversial - only in America could it be taken as "radical". Take care of each other, keep the rich/powerful from becoming moreso and running our lives, make sure that everyone - everyone - has their bare minimum needs met. Food/shelter/health. Educate our youth - remember when America led the world? We've been ceding that leadership for decades now, riding on the accomplishments of a generation ago. Outrageous, I tell you - outrageous!! (/s) If we took 25% of our almost trillion-dollar military budget - leaving us as still the most powerful military on the planet - we could go a long way to accomplishing those goals. Make the uber-rich a little bit less so (they're not going to miss any meals) and we're there.
When the overtone windows has shifted so far to the extreme right even a centrist sounds like the radical left. Make no mistake Bernie would be a centrist in a lot of the developed world.

There's only one thing in this speech I can disagree with. We are not heading for an oligarchy. That boat already sailed.
The boat was a six hundred foot yacht worth $500 million.
Don't count your chickens...
yea that and everything he said only helps empower the top .1% and weaken any threats to their dominance.
-. destroy the 2nd amendment and any natural checks on the oligarchs power.
- cause massive inflation to destroy any semblance of an upper class. which are the real threats to the oligarchs. they are fine if a bunch of McDonald's workers make 100000k a year. they don't want people from the rich class starting up their own IT, pharmaceutical and health food and distribution companies that could rival them.
so instead theyre content to destroy the currency and put a bunch of red tape laws in place to prevent anyone from starting up any business with real value.
so they hire this clown to carry water for them

As a Brit, I've heard Bernie speak a few times he is without a doubt an extremely intelligent man, passionate about change in the U.S.a man speaks hopefully for those who have no voice. We are also facing big problems with the powerful, corrupt and greedy hear in the UK .
Big unions are calling for industrial action not seen in decades against multi million £ pound companies who making vast profits at the expense of their workforces. That wealth isn't trickling down to less well off in society and there is a growing shift here . People have simply had enough.
Billionaire insanity greed- hoarders pollution- profit indifference to environment and living things in it is an untreated obsessive mental deficiency . Those who want not need nothing and holy bummer do not get off the abuser tread mill.
Thank you for your view from your side of the ocean. It is so frustrating to get cement heads to see the light when it is for our mutual benefit!

This is the terrible reality! In some countries “donations” to political representatives is called corruption. This can be a good starting point.
The US has a law called the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. If you give a "donation" to not only a foreign politician seeking re-election but to anyone in government, it is considered corruption. Yet in the US it is considered the norm and acceptable before the law.
Representative government was lost as a result of three supreme court rulings, the most famous being citizens United. The courts say that money is speech, these are the same people that said corporations are people, and Trump's crazy?
Seems like in 🇺🇸, just so long as you cannot tie specific dollars to specific votes, anything short of that is allowed.
When called out on this, officials tend to claim “innocent until proven guilty”. But that principle is supposed to apply to private citizens going about their everyday business, not to those holding positions of statutory power. If you are given such power, then you must be seen to exercise it impartially and transparently, otherwise you should be sacked.
When was this speech?
bernie sanders endorsed hillary clinton
period
I love this man thank you Sir.
It breaks my heart that nobody is listening to the truth. 💔
For you to be so sure you must be the aforementioned “nobody”
Many of us our listening to the truth - meaning Bernie Sanders. The sad fact is he likely would've received the 2016 Presidential nomination however the Clinton's financed the DNC from 2015-2016 & had the DNC covertly sabotage Senator Sanders nomination.
Then in 2020 the wealthy political elites worked behind the scenes to make sure Bernie didn't get the nomination again.
Many millions are actually listening to everything Senator Sanders says or talks about. The smart, caring, compassionate people know Bernie is 1 of the most honest, caring public servants to EVER hold public office.
It saddens me every single day, literally, that Bernie isn't the President because he should be - why? - because he's the most qualified & actually cares.
I pray Senator Sanders runs in 2024... even if he has to run as an Independent because the Democratic establishment has screwed Bernie over twice already 2016 & 2020.

“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.”
― Carl Sagan
WOW. That is one powerful quote.... New to me. Many thanks. I truly believe we as a nation caught the Orange One's bamboozle just in time...barely...for us to now have another chance for Sen. Sanders' consistent, experienced leadership.
Carl Sagan is one of the few celebrities I (mostly) trust. RIP. But I think he was missing a couple variables in this problem; selfishness and community.
I'm not talking about our universal selfishness or self preservation, but about those born without a conscience and the ones conditioned to never develop theirs.
These selfish people gravitate toward (bootlick) other selfish people with more power, happily lying, applying social pressure, threatening, and much worse for their cult leader because it elevates them as well.
The power they have comes more often than not from their ability to provide community to people who have no other community, and remove members from the community at will. Being without a community is devestating to your mental and physical wellbeing, and our "individualist" society has done everything in its power to destroy any community that doesn't help the status quo, so there are a lot of lonely, desperate people out there willing to suspend their disbelief or even just lie in order to get or maintain a support network.
Aw I love Carl Sagan his books and my AP Us History class have shaped me into what I am today.
Bernie, the only American who always thinks of the under privledged and the big [icture. Love what he says and what he stands for. Does not bend in the furious storms of congress, aiways consistent and ought to be Prez. Go Bernie!

The republicans and trumpism have the nation in a death spiral, we're in a rapid decline, to say the very least! And....with so many ignorant, uninformed, brain washed people believing all of the right wing propaganda media's lies along with the greedy, self centered politicians undermining everything that might have a chance to improve our lives...well, we're all pretty much f*cked!

As a Canadian I feel happy to live here and know that if I need medical treatment it’s covered. I need not fear the financial strain of a catastrophic illness. At 75 I’m very grateful because last year my husband nearly died from a heart attack. He had a triple bypass surgery. He walk out of the hospital looking forward to more good years and no debts. Our Medicare paid for it all. That’s freedom! I hear of Americans who have been financially devastated by medical bills. It must be a big concern for many people there.
For a lot of people in America everything is a constant concern. Will I be able to pay my rent or will I get thrown out onto the street? Will I be able to buy food or will I starve? If I need an operation or dental work will I die or have to live in pain? It even goes beyond that to smaller things. If my car breaks down and I can't afford to fix it how will I get to work? And things like will I get to go on vacation this year or get to go to a sporting event, well those things were gone a long time ago.
Housing, food and medical care are considered essential and a basic right for all Canadians. It’s not thought of a Socialism. We have a “social democratic” system of government. I see how many U.S. citizens struggle with keeping afloat and hope that that can change. Things are slipping away on this highly stressed, ‘corporate’ planet. We need to make changes ever more quickly to slow the pace of Climate change and the disintegration of societies. We all should be free to live up to our great potential as humans.
If anything the US (conservatives) can’t even call us far-leftist since Canada’s policy isn’t even as left leaning as a good amount of European/Scandinavian countries.
It’s not that we’re super socialist, they’re just so far from it that it seems that way.
Yes ma'am we fear every day that nothing medically goes wrong because it means the difference of being homeless & having a home. ❤️☮️🙏🇺🇸❤️🇨🇦
I remember taking an ambulance one time because I got jumped never asked for an ambulance to arrive but since I was unconscious I wasn’t able to tell them I didn’t need one I need up getting a hospital bill for $700
Bernie, you're a beacon of hope for all of us. One day I hope your message will be reality, but I fear it's going to take too long.
It's always good to hear from Mr. Sanders.
Thank you Bernie!!
I have worked since I was 12 years old, first at my father's store, then at other low paying jobs throughout my life. I am one that you speak about, I am retired age-wise, but not financially. Currently out of a job, but looking at age 78 - not easy finding one. I can't keep living like this below the poverty line. Thank you for standing up for us Americans who seem to be invisible to our legislatures and are screaming for some attention & consideration.
@@andrerodriguez7603 You're wrong. We have to elect people like Bernie. It shouldn't be this hard.
Hang on. Seniors are getting an 8% SS raise in ‘23 plus more help from Biden. I wanted Bernie but angels and higher beings are on Biden’s mission and he is a good man too
Bernie would have been much worse than Biden,,, if that's possible. The middle class would be out of money completely if he had won the presidency.
Serious question: why did you spend your whole life working low-paying jobs? Does anyone else hear this? Low-paying jobs are exactly that: low-paying. You can't legislate away poverty, ask Romania.
So the question is why didn't you take advantage of the socioeconomic mobility America offers? If you learn a skill you can earn double what you get at a "low-paying" job. Well, idk now you used to. Now you have to learn a skill, and then improve upon it because burger flippers now make $20/hr, so now you need a higher-level cert to make more money. Low level admin jobs that were perfect for low-skilled, but highly-educated people like recent college grads now pay the same as a job that requires absolutely nothing.
I don't understand the mentality where you work in one job your entire life and expect your pay to scale with someone who takes risks to learn new skills, go back to school and earn a degree, complete a certification, or start a business. Promote _yourself._ Do you believe you stop developing after childhood? Please answer why you think you should work at the same level and get more just because you're older.
@@andrerodriguez7603 spoken like the 1% wannabe but you're missing the whole point Bernie and Jayne are making... a lot of people don't have that to invest and even if they did, it's being used up rapidly just to live. The rich are getting richer and everyone else continues to get poorer, something needs to change.
Bernie did so well in this debate on Fox. Hopefully it reaches some who need to hear it.
Unfortunately it probably won't. The conservative corporate cuks have been completely brainwashed by the culture war. It's all that matters to them.
Bernie, you forgot to mention that between the oil companies and the FED,
EVERYONE JUST GOT AN IMMEDIATE CUT IN PAY! (10-15% ?)
What could possibly go wrong?
Bernie was all for the incentives that created the non-working class during the pandemic that basically caused the inflation/recession we're in now. He talks like he has all the answers, but he has none. Thank God the DNC threw him under the bus - again.
But he's a prolific writer. In fact, he’s written more books than successfully passed pieces of legislation, of which there have been seven, 2 of which were for naming post offices, and a third was to declare a “Vermont Bicentennial Day”

Thanks Bernie! We know your on our side. I caucused and voted for you. Thank you for being a voice of reason, fairness, and compassion, amongst the very worst people of our society. Namely the other senators and congress people.
Other worst people in our society must include the big corporations, the polluters, the lobbyists and most unfortunately, the current SCOTUS.

What a powerful and thought provoking common sense speech! My goodness, all of the things he mentioned are for the good of ALL. And yet, so many Americans continue to vote for people who will keep them poor and more importantly without decent affordable healthcare which is pretty standard in most countries. America needs to take the MONEY and corruption out of politics! No wonder you can't get anything done in both the House of Reps and the Senate! The rest of the world is NOT buying your corrupt brand of 'Democracy'!
One of the big reasons I see right now, the Republicans are telling the Latino population that American will be a socialistic government if the democrates continue to give freebies like medical treatment to all Americans and they are saying that the Social Security benefits are Intitlement programs that must be taken away due to the funding for such a program is draining the funds that effects the over all economy.
That is a big lie, the social security administration is not part of the American economy.
Most of the Latino voters have lived in their own country and seen what socialism has to offer in the way of living and are strongly against it.
They believe the capitalist conservatives are good for them.
Let's face the fact that American citizens are now the new minority and we must try to help those who don't understand that we as Americans have lived under the conservative government where the wealthy got the breaks in taxes and the working class paid more without raising minimum wages.
That’s because in America is god. And I’m not sure how long it will take to finally rid citizens of this diseased religion
Your efforts and work are appreciated, thank you for being concerned for all.
Succinct and right on point, every single point he made is exactly what we need to do in this country.
Amazing clip. Love Bernie.
Bernie sanders you speak the truth about government, health care ,the need for raising minimum wage, and how a government is supposed to work.
Hind sight being 20/20 we should’ve had this man in the White House in 2016
Anyone on this video probably knew that already. But yeah, it would’ve been nice if the Iowa debacle didn’t end up stagnating his momentum.
umm, the people did want him, the majority vote during primary went to bernie. The DNC stole his nomination and handed it to Hilary to maintain the power of the establishment!
We have to stand up and some how have to create a 3rd party that actually represents the people and not the corporations!!
We donated to Bernie's campaign since he announced he was running for President. I voted for him twice as I had to write in his name in on our CA ballot. A small price to pay to support a man like Bernie.
2016 yup
"We" did not have the power to do that. The political bosses in the Democratic party used their money (billionaires') and connections to mainstream media (billionaires') and well known corporate Democratics (Obama, Clyburn, Warren, etc.) to stop Bernie. We had no choice. That is not to say that "we" are not gaining that power. Go progressives.
He maybe old but BERNIE ain't slow. BERNIE still knows what the people want, need, and the rights this government should be delivering. And the people know that BERNIE speaks for them. Thank you, BERNIE, for bucking the winds of FOX with breezes of truth and keeping the fight going!

I'm standing up. Go on Bernie light my 🔥! Feeling the Bern!🙏👏👏🆙️
The level of clarity is impressive.
I love Bernie, I love his message ! Thanks for speaking out !
So you're a communist like him?
Thank you, Bernie. Again, as always, you exemplify what it means to be a leader and public servant. Not me, US!
Tell them bernie! They need to hear the truth!!
Go Bernie--right to the White House!
@@haroldbrown5308 I feel the same way! And, over many months, have learned that MILLIONS of us do, too. An Illinois native, I first "met" Bernie in 1963, from a Chicago newspaper photo of a policeman helping him to the ground for marching to support school integration in the city. A You Tube of it is still available, "Bernie and Civil Rights in Chicago." The NAACP got him out the next day. Over the decades Sanders has continually been in the front lines fighting for the causes that are most important to me: civil, economic, gender, racial and social justice...and peace. He is now the chair of the powerful Senate Budget Committee, also a continuing member of the Veterans Committee after a progressive tenure as chair. Along the way, he's earned national honors from both the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars and is the recipient of two university honorary degrees. For a youngster, Bernie has a great record as a public servant--starting as the thrice re-elected mayor of Burlington, Vermont's largest city-- and continuing as a US representative, now in a 3rd term as a Us senator. At 84, I would be so glad for the opportunity to volunteer for him again. #NotMeUs.
Bernie nailed it as usual. I'm in my young sixties and I'm receiving barely enough to eat from my SS but no more. But I fear the future for the youngest Americans is bleak. By the time the leaders of this and other countries react it'll be too late. Climate change is at our doorstep and if people think the wealth gap is too extreme now, just wait till twenty years from now.
Awesome! The Fox crowd needs to hear more of Bernie.
He ran their town hall and was the only one drumpf feared.
yea, people keep saying hes too left, no he actually appeals to the republican voter base. left, right doesn't matter.
He steps aside for corporate Democrats every single time. He's a fraud.
@@keyoke69 Donny dotard keeps going when he's beaten, but then again Donny dotard can still grift from the magats.
@@keyoke69
Corporate Democrats are center-right
Bernie is center-left.
The Republicans are right-wing to far-right.
Right-wing = corporate interests
Left-wing = interests of Labor
Western Democracy = Liberal Democracy
Do you have a problem with Sanders bowing down to the election results?
You smashed it Bernie! Keep up the good fight for us 👏 👏 🇺🇸
I will always be a Bernie Bro!
I used to be, and then I joined the Tulsi train after Bernie folded and supported Biden. What a dud
@@RocketGator05 That means you are a right-winger and you probably like Jimmy Dore too!
What a wonderful man! Btw most things he wants are fully normal in many European countries!
Bernie has been saying this for DECADES!! My heart was broken when ppl didn't KNOW u like I do/did. U were my new FDR!!!
The problem is that the American people of all political stripes have been convinced that we don't need an FDR or JFK ("Ask not..."), we need a Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump who make them feel good about themselves instead of solving problems. Of course, Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump personally had no problems. They were rich and had gotten rich in useless entertainment jobs. (That's where Trump made most of his own money, not real estate.) Entertainment is nice icing on the cake if everything else -- education, health care, the environment, nutrition, and fairness in society -- is already securely taken care of. That's not the way the American people think today and they have sold much of their freedom to the rich (why should your boss be able to send you email at home or while you're in a restaurant or playing beach volleyball with your family and friends?), and become beholden to them, unable to ignore that email, because they do not feel secure. Only the rich feel secure. Even someone as incompetent as Donald Trump can muddle his way through life knowing he will survive somehow, because he's rich or perceived to be rich. Bernie is basically right on the nose about the problems we are facing, who caused them and who is definitely not going to solve them for us. As long as we continue to elect lawmakers who do not serve us, the people, as a whole, this is only going to get worse.
New for? So you wanthim to get up into a war? GIVE TRILLIONS of taxpayer dollars to foreign governments and hold our economy down until we get into another war. My father's favorite story on Frankie was when he ordered SHIPLOADS of potatoes to be taken into the Atlantic and DUMPED. BTW all the military that had lick British or Russian asses would really look forward to seeing YOU lead the way.
I pray for Bernie every night! God bless Bernie!
@@haroldbrown5308 Mr "I OWN FOUR HOUSES" DOES NOT WANT YOUR PRAYERS. He is an atheist.Do some research before you insult people.
@@wlbond008 Gee, a few hours ago Bernie owned 3 houses--now it's four. Can you say writer of two books, can you say one small house left to his wife or are you so sure his daddy didn"t give him millions like the orange man? Oh, thats right--he went bank rupt on his business ventures. He doesn't even know that he will soon be wearing orange clothes--not just his hair!
Thank you Bernie. I hope this is read/ viewed by millions.
Help by liking and sharing
Bernie is the man!! I think the only person who has the ability to do what Bernie does and who can reach out to people the way Bernie does is John Fetterman!!
It’s a bummer that our political climate is so hostile to the members of the squad (for obvious reasons *cough cough* xenophobia), but I have to agree with you there. I think he has the potential to carve himself as the left’s champion with the optics of an independent ‘in the middle’. He also will win any senate gladiator competition if it comes to that!
i love Fetterman. I support & donated to him. And I'm not even in his state. lol
Guess you haven't seen Katie Porter and her whiteboard of death.
Its like you havent seen Bernie surrender every single time.
Senator Bernie Sanders Our Unofficial President since 2016 !!!
THIS IS WHAT A REAL PRESIDENT SOUNDS LIKE!!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Keep Your Blue No Matter Who !!! 🤬
Bravo, spoken like a representative of the people, for the people!
And Karl Marx. Don't forget him.
@@RLTtizME Marxism is a critique of capitalism. By those standards, marxism is very relevant today and has proven to be spot on in many ways, such as the consolidation of businesses into larger and larger corporations that eventually sit at the top of society's power structure.
@@darrenfleming7901 Nice justification and insertion of your own definitions. Nobody is buying it Phlegming. Nobody. We will not stand by and let people like you and Bernie defile our country. So give it up or emigrate somewhere else.
Bernie you're my actual president ♥️😇
Love you ♥️
He's AMERICAS DAD NOT BIDEN
TRUTH in Bernie! You always have our backs, thank you Bernie
Shit, man. That was great. That is everything I believe and would like to achieve. It’s what I really believe Americans want. Great job
Sir this is truly what the average American wants. We just want to live a decent live without having to struggle especially now the way the economy is right now. This is where the greedy corporations are taking clear advantage of us all the worming and middle class. We are the ones who hold the weight of this country and throughout the globe to keep life going. When things opened back up they rely on us to come back to work and make them money. Then as time goes on they increase the product prices and the goods sitting in cargo shipment containers. We need to really thing about the direction we are headed in this country. Our rights are disappearing slowly.
He lost me when I found out that he owns three houses while many Americans don’t have one. Linsey is a RINO anyway so you should never take anything he says seriously. I never understood how Bernie could rant about how outsourcing “ American jobs “ to foreign workers is corporate greed and how we should make sure Americans are taken care of first, but then calls anyone who opposes open borders xenophobic.
@@Navy35 Attack the Messenger right, and not the message? Way to come with the oldest trick in the establishment playbook!
@@Navy35 How many times can you use whataboutism in a sentence?
How about you ASK americans. Because we want NONE of it. You can get major surgery every 18 months cheaper than just the obamacare PREMIUMS.
It is democrats FORCING you to work for less wages than the CEO, a LIE as well, he is making only $1.
But you can't quit because liberals made it a crime to NOT be in a union forcing you to work for a company that mistreats you.
Oligarchy can't do shit unless democrats TAKE the bribes and write what they want into LAWS.
Bernie, thank you for having our back. Your awesome 😍💕
Go Bernie, I believe he’s the only one speaking for us retired or disabled in America. We definitely need him in the senate and standing up for us.
Go Bernie!!! He never changes his message…always fighting!!
Bernie Sanders only runs in order to get another mansion.
Right on Bernie!
Go get em Bernie !!
LOVE YOU BERNIE........GOD BLES & KEEP YOU...........YOU SPEAK THE TRUTH. ❤️☮️🙏
You are amazing my friend.
Lots and lots of thanks for speaking not only on behalf of the the American nation but on behalf of many others around the world, it is such a great sense of responsibility towards humanity, God pless you.
For the life of me I cannot understand how anyone could view anything Bernie just said as controversial - only in America could it be taken as "radical". Take care of each other, keep the rich/powerful from becoming moreso and running our lives, make sure that everyone - everyone - has their bare minimum needs met. Food/shelter/health. Educate our youth - remember when America led the world? We've been ceding that leadership for decades now, riding on the accomplishments of a generation ago. Outrageous, I tell you - outrageous!! (/s)
If we took 25% of our almost trillion-dollar military budget - leaving us as still the most powerful military on the planet - we could go a long way to accomplishing those goals. Make the uber-rich a little bit less so (they're not going to miss any meals) and we're there.
Absolutely!
When the overtone windows has shifted so far to the extreme right even a centrist sounds like the radical left. Make no mistake Bernie would be a centrist in a lot of the developed world.
Ok... sounds good in theory BUT where specifically is the money going to go?
Where exactly is that money going? How is it going to be spent? AND who is going to be handling it?
@@justjoking5841 Well that's up to US, isn't it? Vote for people who do what should be done - and watch them to make sure they do it. Frankly I get tired of the cynicism - "oh they're all corrupt" -- when WE are the ones responsible for who is in these offices. If you (not you specifically, JJ, just everyone) vote for someone and then don't hold them accountable, WE'RE the problem, not them.
As to your specific questions - I'm not a policy wonk, let's ask any of the countries that make such things work. Simple fact - we ARE the ONLY developed nation that doesn't provide these things for their people. So let's look at the countries that do - no need to reinvent the wheel.
@@justjoking5841 yeah there can be inefficiencies due to bureaucracy, which is a separate issue that can also be improved, but why ask yourself that and not ask how the money is being used right now? Useless military deployments in never ending wars? Endless dick waving between the US and China with military parades and border conflicts? Maintaining influence to control the resources and governments of foreign states? Financing the Israeli colonial project?
If you think that social service budgets would be mismanaged, how in the fuck are you okay with all the wasted resources poured into the American military?
Thanks Bernie
The voice of reason in America. Whom most Americans take for granted.
This man is more alive than most of the younger politicians! Speak it, Bernie.

🌷Honest politics with heart??? You are a ‘round peg for a square hole’.
Where is my magic wand when I need it? 😢
Thank you so very much Mr. Sanders, you are beyond wonderful…. and unfortunately, probably ahead of your time.
Thank you so very much for all your HARD WORK … your TIME …. your untold SACRIFICE …. your MANY accomplishments … your LOYALTY to the TRUTH and sooo much more.
My very Best, to you and yours. 🌷
