Why Is Bernie Sanders Invested On Wall Street?

[JDPriestly]

22. There are a number of countries in Europe that are or have been governed by socialist parties.

They all have capitalist systems today. In the West a number of them have certain socialist institutions. Some have large national banks. Some have free higher public education. Many provide stipends to parents with young children. They, like we, have free education K-12 and a number of them have free or nearly free pre-school education.

The list of socialist programs, programs that function well and serve not just the interests of the people as a whole but the individuals within their society, is longer in some countries than others but at their foundations, these countries are mixed, CAPITALIST with some beneficial socialist programs.

We rank with a couple of very, very poor countries in our lack of paid family leave for new mothers. We are in terms of social programs very backward.

Bernie is popular among the younger generation precisely because he favors changing our society so that we work together and support each other.

The main reason that we don't have these beneficial socialist programs is racism. Selfish white people did not want to fund healthcare for all or pre-school for all and other such programs because they did not want to pay the costs of these programs for people of color. Sheer racism and selfishness.
