Probably the reason Trump and a bunch or Republicans got elected is because that's who they're catering to. Whether or not they will actually help the working class remains to be seen, but like with all politicians, he was elected because of his promises to the majority.
There were people speaking out about Reaganomics and "trickle down theory" but they were scoffed at. Some even went as far as to call the naysayers communist (I wonder which side said that) ?
@@bunyipdragon9499 Not to mention that the talking heads of news television were all conservatives. The only liberal featured in bookstores or television of that time, was occasionally Robert Reich. Otherwise, there was no liberal counter allowed to the Reagan argument by the MSM of that day.
@stevenmitchell1 interesting your comment came through to me but it doesn't seem to be posted public. Guess you hit a nerve. ( I agree by the way, that's why those that tried to warn us were shot down so easily😡)
Fifty years ago, people thought that unions were safe (and then Reagan lied to them), and corporations weren't "people" yet. And the conservative propaganda machine wasn't up and running to full power yet.
People are finally waking up to the fact that this isn't a left vs right issue, it's a class issue. The 1% want us to keep fighting each other to keep us distracted.
Damn straight, Bernie! I work my ass off 40+ hours a week and after rent, bills, and groceries, I have little to show for it. We need massive reforms for the working class so we don't have to work ourselves into the grave.
@@southernfried19That's the most anyone should have to, advancing technology and prosperity should've reduced the workweek to less than that by now but the fat cats at the heads of megacorps took that from us and use every advancement to make workers' lives worse. Hell, 40hrs a week is twice what the average adult used to be expected to do when you consider most homes were single-income back in the day. Now both parents are forced to clock a full week before little ones and other obligations can even be tackled.
At least you have 40 hours. No one is calling me back and I'm sure I'm more than qualified to handle grunt work in fast food, at least. They just don't want people to survive anymore
Well, idiots like yourselves believe this is capitalism when if you simply listened to the fathers of capitalist thought Adam Smith and Milton Friedman, youd find out this is not capitalism.

I could be working more. But. Yeah. 3 dudes shouldnt own half of everything. Not even Jesus. Or the Phrophet Mohammod, or Buddha, or Moses. No one should. This is why I hate the game monopoly.
Most of the time the reason these people get so rich and successful is a combination of hard work and innovation, and once they've gotten successful, the need for these things goes away, like with Apple. These people are rich because we made them rich.
One of the only politicians who is openly speaking out against enormous corporations and their donations. Thank you. In this environment where everything feels like it is for sale and nobody is accountable, I need this.
I find it kinda charming that government agents promote "eat the rich" rhetorics now that they are grow afraid of influential corporations after sticking with them for past 50 years on every occasion. Remember the United Fruit Company?
Speaking out after it's too late and he used zero of his leverage to force change in the people he endorsed 🤷♀️ it's not his fault but he's part of the problem
"3 People own more wealth than 50% of the US population" let that sink in! 334.9 million (2023) US population. 3 Americans own more wealth than 167 Million American Citizens. That is just insanity. And they should raise the tax bracket when earning above 10 million a year. The tax rate after 10 Million should be 90%

I am in the UK and its exactly the same here. The rich pay next to no taxes. Royalty pay no taxes. Its sickening. Too many people struggling to make ends meet. I wish we had someone like Bernie here.
The issue is that he can't offer a real solution to this. If the government taxes the corporations more, we'll still be paying for it. We're literally stuck in a system that no matter what the politicians do, we the people get screwed over. If they tax the rich, they don't give it back to us. If they tax the rich, the rich will charge more for everything. If they artificially raise our wages, the rich will charge more for everything. We're stuck. Bernie is correct about the problem, but he doesn't have a solution for it, and neither does anyone else.
Just end the two party system and be like all other western countries, real democracies for the people and take all that money out of politics, why is it leagal to buy politicians in the US?
You should pay attention to the work of Committees where Bernie is Chairman..... He does have some effect, but as Capitalism crumbles worldwide, we need to prepare a new state of mind?
And yet, half or more of the discussions in this thread are people playing out party politics as usual. If you really stand with Bernie and his ideals, then you also are against the two parties. You are against both, if you are logically consistent.

When i did the economics 101 unit at university decades ago, we were taught that, under the theories of capitalist economics ‘competition’ would prevent excess profits. Which meant that, technically, billionaires shouldnt exist under capitalist economics, because competition should whittle prices and profits to a minimum. Even my professors teaching that unit openly stated the theory underlying our economic system was false - because those conditions never exist in the real world. We live in a system, worldwide, that is a gigantic lie. And once again, people are starting to see the lie very clearly. The question is, how do we change the system peacefully, before it collapses violently, as it has done so many times before throughout history. Democracy should mean we can peacefully change this, but the unjust economic system has reached out to prevent even that.

@@Gandhi_Physique I think the argument is more that if we have a variable rate they get taxed more. eg: 90% == 900 million for everyone else, and they still have 100 million that is more than enough money for anyone to do with.

@@futuza Yeah, of course. Variable is something I'm not sure if I support or not, but at the very least it should be the same as everyone else. Still maintaining some threshold where people in poverty are able to keep the money they do make, or at least get it back at tax time.
If by maximum wage you also mean money earned through non-salary/non-hourly/non-tip means such as stock options, etc., then yes -- if you don't put a cap on that, then the rich just jack up prices until they get minimum wage earners back down to grinding poverty. This is not theoretical -- they're already doing it. Because wealth isn't just about Greed -- it's also about Envy.
@@braceyourselvesfortruth2492 Sure it does. No one should be allowed to "earn" more than a specific amount, guaranteeing that the rest go where it will help the most people the most.

If the Democrats had campaigned on these issues, they would have won, but they’re too afraid of upsetting their wealthy donors. Instead, they chose to focus on topics that don’t affect every American. Yes, LGBTQ rights are important, but it’s hard for people to care about that when they have to work two jobs and are still barely able to survive. The same goes for women’s reproductive rights not even all women in the U.S. care enough about this issue to vote, so how can they expect to rally men around it? Similarly, with student loan relief, those who paid off their loans by being frugal are going to feel bitter about others receiving relief while they lived a basic life to pay theirs off as quickly as possible. And the list goes on. Issues like raising the minimum wage, fair taxation based on income, free healthcare, nationwide improvements in education with free meals for kids-these are topics that everyone can get behind. But instead, the Democrats built their campaign around issues that primarily affect minorities. I also believe the majority of Americans don’t want their tax money being used to provide free healthcare for Israelis while funding the killing of children with American taxpayer money.

That news article was published by the Wall Street Journal evening edition, at exactly 8pm PST ( for prime-time news outlets) the night before the primary, and the record-setting pre-primary registration of young voters that spring, actually resulted in the 2nd lowest voter turnout in modern California election history, giving Hilary Clinton the victory. The Associated Press/Wall Street Journal announcement the night before was perfectly orchestrated, giving Hilary Clinton the primary win, with the largest batch of state delegates to the Democratic Convention.
Its probably either the same as this one. Or way way way worse. Most of his economic ideas do not track math. Meaning what he thinks will happen.

The democratic party hates populists - they're at the forefront of censorship and screwed him out of the primary twice. We could've had 8 years of Bernie but it would've meant the end of the censorship industry and empire building globally, so they pulled all the stops to make it not happen. Also sad that Bernie is too old to adopt a stronger pro human position and really put fire to the Democrats who betrayed him. If he started to run 20 years ago he'd still have it in him, but things weren't as bad then. Now Bernie knows his life is on the line if he talks about it. Seriously, they already started to treat him like Trump when he was running against Hillary - articles were calling him an angry old man for white people, calling him a populist fascist is next and I'm serious. Remember what I wrote when they do. When you're that age it's all or nothing - and sadly it's on the nothing side from Bernie; otherwise he'd be a lot more open about the good Trump is doing going after censorship. I bet he got a lot of threats when he approved of Elon cutting government waste - part of the that waste is the censorship industry... At BEST he's a Trump skeptic which is reasonable but not bold enough in face of this danger and what he's literally experienced. To be honest, he should've run as republican in 2020. Instead he's going to enjoy his golden years "fighting the good fight" before going peacefully surrounded by his family. Very human, but not the hero we need.

The Electoral College gives them a shot nationally. Even "red states" maintain their state legislatures by clustering all black, brown, and poor working class voters into 2 or 3 districts. Then there's the billionaire-funded voter suppression, purging voter roles, archaic anti-voting laws like ID requirements, no mail-in ballots, etc. Billionaires fund both parties, to be sure. However, if billionaires were restricted or if donations to PACS were eliminated - the Democrats would survive, not the GOP. The US is a plutocracy. Corrupt and at the end of a broken economic system. We live under a neofeudalist two-tiered economic hellscape. If we start peeling votes from the Democratic Party, we will all be doomed to something similar to the Handmaid's Tale. Don't doubt it for a second. Just listen to that maniac Vance speak, listen to a Peter Thiel interview or Tom Homan. These people are ideological maniacs.
The fact that Americans said no to have this man lead them not once, but twice and reelected Trump is honestly disturbing to me. I am seriously worried for the future of this world.
I really hope there’s not another pandemic under trump. I am an ICU nurse who cared for COVID patients. I work in a large hospital and we saw the sickest of the sick. It is so frustrating to me when the severity of the pandemic is completely dismissed. The heath care system was on the brink of collapse and there was a great deal of collateral damage that was suffered by the mishandling of the pandemic by the Trump administration and the disinformation. We had 3 extra units open. The Navy had to come in and help us. When the vaccines were released the ones who died were overwhelmingly unvaccinated. We were being threatened with violence and the care we were providing patients was obstructed by families who did not trust us. Many of the unvaccinated patients we cared for were MAGA anti-vaxxers and their families made our lives hell. We ran out of gowns and masks. We had to reuse N95s for days. I will never forget the day when a respiratory therapist told me we were down to 1 ventilator and the dark laugh we shared wondering what would happen. The amount of nurses who quit working bedside is staggering. Anyone who worked in direct patient care during the COVID pandemic has some level of PTSD. Hospital systems have found that nurses can do more with less, when pressed, and now that is the standard. Trump and MAGA ideology has had a devastating impact on the heath care system and cannot be understated. The lesson I have learned from Trump's win is that if you tell a lie over and over and over and over again, it becomes the truth. That is exactly what he did and it worked./“
No... burnie is just telling you what yoy want to hear. Its not based on facts or reality. Hes as much of a liar s all the others. Probably more. He just tells lies you want to here. If you do the math on what he says. Ive found 90% of what he says to be wrong.

This explanation just seems too simple, and we all like simple answers to complex problems but it's the bottom 80% that rather save a few bucks to buy something offline than shop at a local mom and pop store. Amazon and Walmart didn't become giant corporations by putting a gun to anyone's head. The same situation with Instagram and TikTok. No one is forcing people to use these.
And one of them, Elon Musk, the richest man on the planet has been appointed with task of arranging "Efficiency savings" in the next government. We had that in the UK under the last Tory government. It means slashing government spending on things like the NHS, welfare benefits for the vulnerable, public roads maintenance, social care,etc. Austerity,in other words.

Billionaires should not exist. No one needs that much money.

If the Democrats had campaigned on these issues, they would have won, but they’re too afraid of upsetting their wealthy donors. Instead, they chose to focus on topics that don’t affect every American. Yes, LGBTQ rights are important, but it’s hard for people to care about that when they have to work two jobs and are still barely able to survive. The same goes for women’s reproductive rights not even all women in the U.S. care enough about this issue to vote, so how can they expect to rally men around it?
Similarly, with student loan relief, those who paid off their loans by being frugal are going to feel bitter about others receiving relief while they lived a basic life to pay theirs off as quickly as possible. And the list goes on. Issues like raising the minimum wage, fair taxation based on income, free healthcare, nationwide improvements in education with free meals for kids-these are topics that everyone can get behind.
But instead, the Democrats built their campaign around issues that primarily affect minorities. I also believe the majority of Americans don’t want their tax money being used to provide free healthcare for Israelis while funding the killing of children with American taxpayer money.

I do wonder what the timeline where Sanders won the primary and the election in 2016 looks like.
The Associated Press (led by 3 journalists) strategically announced that Hillary Clinton had already wrapped up the delegate count for the Democratic nomination, on the eve of the June California Democratic Primary. That news article was published by the Wall Street Journal evening edition, at exactly 8pm PST ( for prime-time news outlets) the night before the primary, and the record-setting pre-primary registration of young voters that spring, actually resulted in the 2nd lowest voter turnout in modern California election history, giving Hilary Clinton the victory. The Associated Press/Wall Street Journal announcement the night before was perfectly orchestrated, giving Hilary Clinton the primary win, with the largest batch of state delegates to the Democratic Convention.
Hey back in the early oughts we could of had Nader. Then the DNC convinced liberal America never to try and do anything democratic ever again
Its probably either the same as this one. Or way way way worse. Most of his economic ideas do not track math. Meaning what he thinks will happen. And what he thinks will help you... doesn't hold up o what he believes. Itll make things worse. Be glad he lost.

Trump redirected the anger to the immigrants, and away from the ollagarks, and billionaires.
However are the oligarchs and billionaires that bring immigrants in the first world in order to pay them cheap wages (thus reducing the wages of the local workers) and keep the supply of resources of the third world constant by removing poor population and bringing them to the first world (reduction of probability for revolutions). The people voted for Trump for keeping their jobs and having some law and order. But both political parties have the same plan for the populace: its destruction.
exactly right
Precisely. “Find a scapegoat and fixate on it”. So it was about immigrants, borders, etc., rather than the greedy people at the top, who supported Trump bc he is going to make them MORE wealthy. I suppose a billion doesn’t go as far as it used to?!?
immigration is a huge issue. a bigger issue is the government having control of the currency and being able to debase it and set interest rates.
@@rhysfridays3871 who else are you going to give control over the currency than the government? There's not really another way to do it, because whoever is setting the control of the currency might as well be the government for all intents and purposes. Sure you could give it to a corporation or an individual, but that just makes them the government instead of your elected officials. Or are you talking about the lack of checks and balances and accountability to voters when they change it without authorization from voters?
Thank you, Senator Sanders.❣You always speak for working people.
Bernie is so intelligent. He is always for America.hes good at what he does
Which is why the DNC has fought so hard to keep him from becoming President. They only want what's best for them, Bernie wants what's best for us.

Senator Sander's, I implore you sir, to take this last chance to formally establish a worker's party. If the same uber wealthy, sold-out SOBs are still running things in the Democratic party, a whole lot more of us are going to vote for more of the Trump insanity.
america cannot break out of the 2 party system. Auxiliary parties are doomed to fail, that's why Sanders tried to run as the democratic party presidential candidate, since he knew it was his only opportunity to change things.
There are workers parties in the US. But you will never hear of them because the billionaire media giants will never give them airtime, funding support or newspaper space. Jill stein wasn't even allowed to participate in the party leaders debate on TV!- because she didn't command 25 percent of the electoral vote!- I wonder why!!!

@Endoterrestrials comrade we need to unite the entire left as we have been shown that the workers need a mass party diverse in ideology but united by guiding principles and must advocate for all proletariat and not just be another group that is part of the bourgeois culture war

As a Leninist we must unite the groups and run locally as DSA can't do the work alone and many just run as Democrats so we need to form a workers party
Like if the Socialist groups merge with communist and syndicalist groups and appeal to the rural communities and all people then we have a fighting chance against capitalism

Trump voter here, and while in principle I don't like some aspects of socialism, I like Bernie and believe he's genuine. I also like how he quotes this data from a conservative source. It's time for We the People to get together from each side and figure out how to stop the unimaginable corruption. We're being used as slaves by psychopathic liars.
"It's time for We the People to get together from each side and figure out how to stop the unimaginable corruption. We're being used as slaves by psychopathic liars."
Imagine having come to that conclusion, and then *still* voting for Trump, a corrupt billionaire who lies every time he opens his mouth. Un-believable.
We were told in the 1980s by Reagan and followers that if all that money would go to the top they would use it to provide jobs and increased standard of living for the working class. We got a trickle. They got a massive amount.
Even back then I knew that was a joke. Nobody willingly gives up money.
Lucky you. I got nothing. Was your trickle yellow?
Like any pyramid scheme it doesn't work that way because it is ultimately a grift and a scam
You’re right, a lot of us are angry. The issue is we lack politicians who showcase that same level of angry and channel it. You need to run on these populist ideas and attack relentlessly the other side and any opposition saying they’ll never do it. When they say they will call them out, tell them I dare you to do it because you won’t. Force them into a difficult position. When they halve measure call them out say to everyone I told you they wouldn’t do it. And if they actually do it guess what? You outplayed and got something accomplished because they towed to the political theater. Be more aggressive
What's also amazing is that 50% of you think Trump is going to fix this. Unbelievable.
Because years of corporate democrats have been no better. Even Democrats can see their own party betray Bernie time and time again. Personally - the more government Trump shuts down, the better. He doesn't actually need to fix anything, he can do what he's good at, break everything! The more you read about these departments the more you realize just how many are universally against the people, and would be shut down by Jury if you put them before one. A bare minimum government would be far better than what we already have.
Over 50%.
What's truly incincivible is you think Democrats might actually have a plan.

I have never been let down by anything this man has said..
I wonder why do they need more and more money? What do they do with it? Nothing will ever change only to get worse!
Good question. I like Bernie but I have never given a dime to any politician and I never will. And I wouldn't even consider giving him money. They already get more than enough money from their donor class to buy what they want. My thin wallet will not vote loudly enough since the supreme court decided that money is free speech.
Stop buying from and Bankrupt their businesses. Buy & make what you need and want, locally. Do this in less and less concentric circles outward like ripples on a pond. Follow the money ( the corrupt monies are tied to politics through religion and fear mongering war & resource exploitation) and disconnect. So stopping the resupplying of those ripples.
Also get in front of everything you want by advocating its toughest & most sincerely self accountable & reliable action.
In example: Women (and men) need to write abortion rights and law to most basic human distinction, between lawfully take action and medicinally, dont cut healthy flesh or break hypocratic oath. Because of viability, without womb of mother, public wants stronger law distinguishing from technologically antiquated Roe v. Wade.
Choice conscious Women and Men should write that Civil Rights Act with Ob/Gyn experts. Not religious and willfully ignorant who dont understand the anatomy or medical practice.
After a certain dollar amount that money translates to power. So they are gaining power- which is what all narcissists, psychopaths and sociopaths want.
Well, Trump surely is not the answer. But they are too stupid to realize this. 😮

i can't understand why we've never had the opportunity of president bernie.. only 1% of people should vote against
The democratic party hates populists - they're at the forefront of censorship and screwed him out of the primary twice. We could've had 8 years of Bernie but it would've meant the end of the censorship industry and empire building globally, so they pulled all the stops to make it not happen. Also sad that Bernie is too old to adopt a stronger pro human position and really put fire to the Democrats who betrayed him. If he started to run 20 years ago he'd still have it in him, but things weren't as bad then.
Now Bernie knows his life is on the line if he talks about it. Seriously, they already started to treat him like Trump when he was running against Hillary - articles were calling him an angry old man for white people, calling him a populist fascist is next and I'm serious. Remember what I wrote when they do.
When you're that age it's all or nothing - and sadly it's on the nothing side from Bernie; otherwise he'd be a lot more open about the good Trump is doing going after censorship. I bet he got a lot of threats when he approved of Elon cutting government waste - part of the that waste is the censorship industry... At BEST he's a Trump skeptic which is reasonable but not bold enough in face of this danger and what he's literally experienced.
To be honest, he should've run as republican in 2020. Instead he's going to enjoy his golden years "fighting the good fight" before going peacefully surrounded by his family. Very human, but not the hero we need.
My father a carpenter could buy a 1972 camero for 2 months wage. Now me. 4th generation carpenter is one Camaro per year. And these same people pay our wages and expect us to buy there investments. There investments are only worth what you can get. So only ones buying are investors. And is the consumer can not bail them out.
Let's go, Bernie. Third party
I would have agreed some years ago.
Third party from the left will ONLY HELP THE REPUBLICANS stay in perpetual power.
They have redistricted and gerrymandered their way to power. The Electoral College gives them a shot nationally.
Even "red states" maintain their state legislatures by clustering all black, brown, and poor working class voters into 2 or 3 districts.
Then there's the billionaire-funded voter suppression, purging voter roles, archaic anti-voting laws like ID requirements, no mail-in ballots, etc.
Billionaires fund both parties, to be sure. However, if billionaires were restricted or if donations to PACS were eliminated - the Democrats would survive, not the GOP.
The US is a plutocracy. Corrupt and at the end of a broken economic system. We live under a neofeudalist two-tiered economic hellscape.
If we start peeling votes from the Democratic Party, we will all be doomed to something similar to the Handmaid's Tale. Don't doubt it for a second.
Just listen to that maniac Vance speak, listen to a Peter Thiel interview or Tom Homan. These people are ideological maniacs.

I really hope there’s not another pandemic under trump. I am an ICU nurse who cared for COVID patients. I work in a large hospital and we saw the sickest of the sick. It is so frustrating to me when the severity of the pandemic is completely dismissed. The heath care system was on the brink of collapse and there was a great deal of collateral damage that was suffered by the mishandling of the pandemic by the Trump administration and the disinformation. We had 3 extra units open. The Navy had to come in and help us. When the vaccines were released the ones who died were overwhelmingly unvaccinated. We were being threatened with violence and the care we were providing patients was obstructed by families who did not trust us. Many of the unvaccinated patients we cared for were MAGA anti-vaxxers and their families made our lives hell. We ran out of gowns and masks. We had to reuse N95s for days. I will never forget the day when a respiratory therapist told me we were down to 1 ventilator and the dark laugh we shared wondering what would happen. The amount of nurses who quit working bedside is staggering. Anyone who worked in direct patient care during the COVID pandemic has some level of PTSD. Hospital systems have found that nurses can do more with less, when pressed, and now that is the standard. Trump and MAGA ideology has had a devastating impact on the heath care system and cannot be understated. The lesson I have learned from Trump's win is that if you tell a lie over and over and over and over again, it becomes the truth. That is exactly what he did and it worked./“
