Opinion: Why Sanders should get your vote by Arthur Bradbury

1. Perhaps even more importantly Bernie Advocates Increased Estate Taxes

Awhile back, we were all so upset that although we gave the banks money to keep them solvent we could not claw back the money, yey today when we see that the richest among us has purchased our government and changed tax laws and policies to unjustly reward themselves, we seldom hear the term claw back. No small amount of tax increases on the rich will level the playing field. The advantages they hold with prep school educations and attendance at our most expensive universities buys them a better education than any our public universities can normally furnish. Yet we hear little about this disparity, acting as if the benefits of income disparity is going to vanish, when in fact the only real solution to this problem must have wealth redistribution at its core. President Obama was not willing to do it, but we must revise our inheritance and estate taxes in order to reduce the inequities that have been gained over decades and ensure a more equitable society. There really is no other way. Hillary does not address this to my knowledge and President Obama for all the talk about a fair shot was unwilling to admit this was needed. Only Bernie!
