Communists have wanted to destroy the US since the 1910s.

This isn't news.

That equals $1025 per person in past due medical debt....that does not sound like an outrageous amount.

I'm pretty sure the doctor/hospital will be more than happy to work out a payment plan.....they obviously didn't withhold service to the patient because of inability to pay.

Fixed it for ole Bern.

Why do lefties never learn that companies will NEVER just take a hit without passing it on to their customers? Taxes are an expense. When expenses go up, the cost of the company's goods and services go up. Who pays for that? That's right. The customers pay. Ultimately, that is you and me.

Bernie is a fricking idiot and an economic retard, but his followers are even dumber.

This makes no sense. Just to take money away from people who have earned it.


The ideology of the left is never to lift people up into prosperity. It is to drag everyone down to mutual poverty...except the political members, of course.

How is that the fault of CEOs? It makes no sense to take people with debts and give their burdens to people without them.

"And, when elected, I promise that if you owe anyone money for anything... Mortgage, Car note, check cashing place, credit card companies, student loans, medical debt, anything... you'll no longer owe it."

AOC be like... "Oh, Bernie, you're my hero. Take me. Take Me now."

So what happens to those hospitals that wrote off billions and billions in bad debt because they gave up on trying to collect? Do those come back and make those healthcare systems whole?

How is this not "From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs" again?

I've been assured by some very serious people that calling Bernie a communist is slander. Just haven't figured out how.
