All a thread like this communicates is that you already have the notion set in your head, and that trying to convince you would be pointless. You may as well have just said, "Bernie will never win; prove me wrong," which would have been a Flood-tier post.
Curious to see if there are plans out there, since I could not find any.

There isn't enough potential revenue there, especially given the unintended consequences which will likely ensue. Let's be honest, it isn't all that surprising. Sanders is all rhetoric; he likes to go on about Sweden and their wonderful model of social democracy, despite the fact that--unlike his rhetorical flourishes would have you believe--they don't soak the rich.
Aside from raising taxes on the rich, and on Wall Street, has he stated anyways he would raise revenue?

Quote from: MyNameIsCharlie on October 15, 2015, 11:24:09 AMOf the current candidates, his ideas are the least impractical. Everyone agrees America is broken. Our system pools resources in the hands of the very few, and those with the means have demonstrated that they do not have the general population's best interest at heart. Industrialists up until the early 80's counted themselves as Americans first. That isn't the case. Main St America has suffered because of this. Bernie may not have the ideal solutions, but at least he's going in the right direction.lolNigga you need those "industrialists", their tax dollars actually fund shit.And if they're not Americans first anymore, good luck keeping them around once the soaking starts.
