(236 posts)Have you ever taken economics or polysci? All institutions work perfectly in theory. People are the corrupting factor. All revolutions have resulted in the winners bullying, destroying and displacing other members of society for their own personal gain. I do not see the rhetoric of Bernie supporters, or their actions, as being anything different. Modern history, French revolutionaries went after the elites, but then the middle class, and then their own class if they did not agree. Stalin did the same.
Bernie supporters make clear they will take whatever action is necessary to WIN. NOT to achieve JUSTICE. Bernie has raised and spent way more than Hillary - why isn't he winning if his message is so pure?
Probably because it isn't. Why is he refusing to release his old tax returns? Is it something to do with his wife's payments from the schools she destroyed? His income? Their contributions? Did they contribute to the Clinton Foundation? That would be a hoot, wouldn't it?
Start calling for the Sanders' disclosure. Hillary certainly disclosed all of hers.
