Because in a perfect world to socialists, everything would be free, and people would never need to worry about things that "should be theirs" because they live in America. Healthcare, Education, success, etc. To me, it comes across as entitlement, without the hard work. I just don't think Bern's fantasy land ideas for social programs can even succeed. Some of his other ideas are cool in theory though. I will give him that.
I don't think that's exactly true. In a perfect world, everyone would like Socialism so much they'd submit to central planning and forgo earnings based upon merit.
It's because most the Oregon population are liberals, er um, progressives, er um democrat socialists. Whatever the flavor of the day is.
Well, he could choose policy positions that differ from what neo nazis want. That might discourage them. barfo
Maybe because Mags talk AT us, rather than WITH us. A rational discussion is (hopefully) two sided.....
Seems like the majority of Americans agree with his policies too. http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.co...isis-impacting-public-opinion-on-immigration/
Socialists are like elementary school student leadership. "Less homework and MORE recess!!!" Just insert whatever buzzwords you want for homework and recess.
Actually, the rich guys who post on message boards during work hours would be the ones submitting to the new meritocracy. The other rich guys, the ones who work as hard as the poor, would take a pay cut, but their lives wouldn't change much. They'd still be sweating all day trimming their 6-foot hedges.
Hahaha this is fresh coming from liberals, who are poster children of being one sided and argumentative. Look at the liberals that are wanting to protest actors that endorse Trump. Liberals that say Carson is Uncle Tom. It seems they can't fathom that republicans can court many minorities.

One man's Socialist is another man's Christian. And perhaps it's because our parents and/or life circumstances taught us that there is more value in treating our fellow humans with respect than there is in kicking them in the balls. We're all in this world together, like it or don't. And if I shit on someone, they're likely to shit on me. I prefer to use reverse psychology in that area.....
Oddly, Bernie Sanders also agrees with Trump about closing the borders and getting rid of illegals. Sadly, I suspect liberals will spin this to their advantage.
That's a pretty big stretch there Mags! a 2014 poll that says 51% of americans think we should focus on border security is not the same thing as saying that 51% of americans agree with Donald's proposals. barfo
