the opposite of what classical Socialism was supposed to be. The idea that the WORKERS get to decide what happens to the business they work and the people get to decide how their lives are run scares the shit out of the elite. They know the power of this idea and will stop at nothing to crush it. Don't think for a second that the Heritage Foundation and American Enterprise Institute don't have people trying to combat Bernie's message, but it's hard to go up against truth. Hopefully, if Bernie doesn't get the nod then at least he will pull more and more people to the Left and away from unfettered Capitalism.
