Well considering they've been bought out by corporate money/interests, no I'm not expecting that to happen. The big issue is money in politics.
I blame the politicians for letting the money influence them.

First step? He's been in government for half a century

By reducing the amount of money in politics. Reading comprehension is hard, I know.
Bernie wants to flood the US government with Trillions and Trillions of dollars in new spending. How exactly is that "Getting money out of politics"?

nor what Bernie wants
Wants the Gov't to cap income- check
Wants Gov't to run healthcare- check
Wants free college paid for by the Gov't- check
Wants the Gov't to pay off student loans- check
I could go on.

The dude is acting like Bernie is not bought and paid for as well.

This is not the government " in control of everything in your life".

That's probably because he's not.

TLDR
This probably true but that’s not how it work unless your parents give unlimited amounts of money. You’re forties and fifty’s and don’t have to do shite.

I don't necessarily disagree. But it's an issue that needs to addressed regardless.

Be honest. Your grandfather worked a lot more hours than you. Saturdays, Sundays, 12-14 hour days.

Fewer billionaires? So, 3 less billionairs?

That idiot thinks that lobbyists will disappear from DC if we only dumped 10 trillion dollars more per year into it while taking over major American industries.

I wonder what monetary policy decision occurred in 1972.

That graph is misleading due to computerization and technology.
Why do people (as a generalization) deserve a ton more money when their jobs get easier?
