LGBTQ+ is antihuman rights - 10/10/2015 10:39:32 PMSocialism doesn't work because you are FORCING people to do things. It ALWAYS preys on the working class and it ALWAYS begins to degrade to shite just like Greece. All Sanders will do is piss off the entire country when our economy goes to the shitter back like it was in Canada. FREE HEALTHCARE DOES NOT WORK Even in the best circumstance, England, they LEAVE the country because of the inefficiency and incompetence in their healthcare system DID WE NOT LEARN ANYTHING FROM GREECE AND ITS MASSIVE SOCIAL SERVICES?! Where the hell are these kids going to get jobs? From the companies that don't manufacture here? We already have a shortage already, so that's fuked already. The entire Euro is falling along with the sovereignty of the EU and it's all due to economic failures. -

Private education always outperforms public because people invest more money in their education. A government product will NEVER beat a private product because the private product is founded on innovation and providing a better alternative. >Train over a million youth in jobs What jobs? What are you going to train them in? This is a system that isn't necessary, On The Job Training is one of the best ways to gain experience in whatever it is you're working in, but if companies aren't hiring than what will they do with that "training" that we aren't even sure is viable for employment or not? The Socialist dream will never become reality. The one man who could've made it happen (pic related) died and the perfect community, with him. EPCOT would have been the perfect socialist community, but only because it's foundation would be built on capitalism. There would be no need to tax citizens because all the revenue for the city would come from the profits of it's resorts where everyone who lived there would be working until death. No retirement, you work for the betterment of the community until you can't provide for the city any more. The idea was too good for this world, too pure, and too CORRECT. -

The OP has gone full retard. Everything in the plan is pure speculation and note to self every time a government official projects something they are never ever ever close to target. The OP and people that believe in Bernie Sanders plan live in the land of make believe instead of reality. Every mathematical formula known to man has estimated at worse case his plan would raise our debt by $18,000,000,000 in the next 10 years. Here is a logical and factual debunking of the OP fairy tale. http://youtu.be/e-8spGrLrUM -

Fun fact about Bernie's proposed Wall Street Robbin Hood tax: it was tried in Sweden and failed miserably. Turns out that you can't force people to invest. They take their money elsewhere. The Swedish financial transaction tax was a 0.5% financial transaction tax (FTT) applied to equity securities, fixed income securities and financial derivatives between 1984 and 1991. On the day that the tax was announced, share prices fell by 2.2%. But there was leakage of information prior to the announcement, which might explain the 5.35% price decline in the 30 days prior to the announcement. When the tax was doubled, prices again fell by another 1%. During the first week of the tax, the volume of bond trading fell by 85%, even though the tax rate on five-year bonds was only 0.003%. The volume of futures trading fell by 98% and the options trading market disappeared. 60% of the trading volume of the eleven most actively traded Swedish share classes moved to the UK after the announcement in 1986 that the tax rate would double. 30% of all Swedish equity trading moved offshore. By 1990, more than 50% of all Swedish trading had moved to London. Foreign investors reacted to the tax by moving their trading offshore while domestic investors reacted by reducing the number of their equity trades. As a result, revenues from these taxes were disappointing. For example, revenues from the tax on fixed-income securities were initially expected to amount to 1,500 million Swedish kronor per year. They did not amount to more than 80 million Swedish kronor in any year and the average was closer to 50 million. In addition, as taxable trading volumes fell, so did revenues from capital gains taxes, entirely offsetting revenues from the equity transactions tax that had grown to 4,000 million Swedish kronor by 1988. But Bernie supporters won't give this any consideration because they don't think for themselves. -

Bernie Sanders will make the national debt even worse, therefore he shouldn't be elected. Donald Trump is...... ummm.... I got nothing. TRUMP 2016 -

Holy Fawk! How has no one pointed out yet that there is no source anywhere on this chart except for the health care bit? And that bit demands single payer, universal healthcare and has the analysis of ONE economics professor? Get smarter or the progressives gonna eat this country for breakfast. Edit: not everyone, just most. -

Unfortunately we won't see any of it come to fruition because it doesn't support the dirty politicians and the rich benefactors lining their pockets. Gotta love America.
