He runs around bitching about how rich people don't care so they should be taxed. This the problem I have with so many leftists.
They define "caring" as, "hey, I see man X who needs help, let's get together and force an Y to give entity Z some money so entity Z can help man X".
Then they run around acting morally superior because they "care" so much. I'm sorry. That's not "caring".
So, when a guy who pretends to be morally superior buys his 3rd home for $600K, yeah, he's asking for it.

Wife inherited property and sold it. Bought another property with the proceeds. I don't get how that makes him a hypocrite.
He openly demonizes the accumulation of wealth, especially through inheritance, in order to gain political power and then accumulates wealth through inheritance.
It's pretty straight forward.

I find it quizzical that our resident Bernie Backers don't see this. "Inheritance for me (or my wife), but not for thee."

Look, Sanders is a hypocrite but so are most of the blowhards in DC. The bigger issue is that he is economically illiterate and preaches dangerous policies to the economically illiterate masses.

Ya know, "loopholes". Otherwise known as perfectly legal actions.

Senate salaries are waaaay too high. They should be making middle class salaries.

What's bernie's stance on inheritance?

They are definitely too high,, it's not like we are attracting the best and the brightest to serve in Congress with these salaries.

You mean loopholes like legally depreciating assets, in the case of Big Oil, that are now considered "subsidies?"
