Sanders laughs with supporter who tells billionaire class to 'f--- off'; excerpt:

Bernie Sanders shared an appreciation for the blunt language of his supporters Monday, even as he remarked that he could not be so vulgar himself.

“I think that when the top one-tenth of 1 percent — one-tenth of 1 percent — now owns almost as much wealth as the bottom 90 percent, we got some other choices that we can make,” Sanders said at a rally in Evansville, Indiana, repeating a common refrain on the trail.

As Sanders then said, “That choice is to tell the billionaire class — ” a man in the audience could be heard shouting, “To f--- off!”
Sanders briefly continued before pausing and chuckling.

“Well, that is one way to phrase it,” he said, gesturing at the interrupter. “See, I myself am constrained. I can’t quite phrase it like that, but that’s not bad.”... The crowd cheered, as Sanders let out another laugh before continuing with his speech.

1. oligarchs like sanders (look up the definition) like a laugh at themselves and their values nt

3. Your cute little use of "oligarch" is a little....um, misleading. A Fail.

A representative democracy is not an oligarchy.

It only becomes one when a small number of the wealthy and power acquire grossly undue influence and control over that government and its representatives.

The oligarchs do not control Sanders.
