Bernie Sanders has purchased his third house – a move that has drawn mass criticism and trolling from social media users. Vanity Fair confirms the purchase, reporting that Sanders purchased a four-bedroom home on the shore of Lake Champlain for $600,000 – more than three times the median American home price. The proceeds reportedly came from the sale of a home his wife inherited. Sanders now owns three properties – one in Burlington, Vermont and another in Capitol Hill, D.C.

He's the typical,"do as I say, not as I do" politician.

Regrettably, I majored in them.

No. Typically rulers live like kings while the working man suffers.

I own two houses at 36 and never made six figs so what's the problem?

Sanders has been a senator since 2007 I believe.

Senate salaries
2007 -- $165,200 per annum
2008 -- $169,300 per annum
2009 -- $174,000 per annum
2010 -- $174,000 per annum
2011 -- $174,000 per annum
2012 -- $174,000 per annum
2013 -- $174,000 per annum
2014 -- $174,000 per annum
2015 -- $174,000 per annum
2016 -- $174,000 per annum
2017 -- $174,000 per annum

Even your article says they bought the house with inheritance money. I'm lost as to how this troubles anyone.

I'm not a socialist so I'm not exactly arguing for it, but the average Scandinavian seems to do pretty well. Obviously, socialism has an ugly side too but it does seem possible to be socialist and wealthy. Theres no conflict between the two.

It wouldn't trouble me at all if Bernie didn't pretend that he's one of the little people and offended by the rich. He's a classic hypocrite.

Every time someone wants to make an argument for socialism, they invariably talk about one of the Scandinavian countries.

The article I posted is current. I don't know why the author chose to bring it up?

Let's put some demographics on a ship and send them to Scandinavia and see how fast that shot works out.
