No, this has nothing to do with wanting to get ahead. EVERY candidate is offering some plan to help lower college costs, housing costs, to help get you ahead .

Bernie is the only one who is outright campaigning on confiscation of wealth.


Millenials who support bernie don't just want to "get ahead", they want other people's money. They don't want to simply rise themselves, they want that in combination with tearing down others.

They don't just want lower college costs, they want it for free.

they don't just want lower housing costs, they want housing for free.

they don't just want lower cost medical care, they want it for free.

it's greed.

The problem isnt that the millennials have it too tough. It’s the exact opposite.

They have it so damn easy that they lose their minds at the slightest adversity.

What you pay won't be based on what it should be.

Therefore it's a handout.

It’s not greed. Greed is having enough and wanting more.

It’s coveting. They’re mad at those who are successful because they aren’t. Bernie bots are also like Trump supporters but opposite sides..they want to punish the right with the most controversial candidates just like we wanted to punish the left and their PC crap with Trump

Don’t tell me. Socialists have finally found a way to get blood from a turnip.

Its tough out here

Only having a 60 inch TV instead of a 70 inch TV

Only having the Samsung Galaxy S10 instead of the Samsung Galaxy S10+

Only getting to watch Netflix + Hulu + Amazon instead of Netflix + Hulu + Amazon + HBO

People cant even afford to set the A/C at 72 degrees all summer long. 74 degrees is the best they can do

HOW CAN WE SURVIVE

Socialism is the politics of envy, weakness, and resentment. I do think they want to supplant to existing ruling class though. Look at the comfortable life Bernie has built for himself, and his family. I think that’s the dream.

I think there’s also a sense of entitlement work. People want to get what’s “theirs.”

There’s this assumption that the world owes them, or they personally deserve whatever they’re lusting after.

The thoughts they need to work for it. Or that taking it would be immoral. Those never really come up.

It absolutely is envy. I think Bernie is going to be the nominee too. This will be interesting. If it isn't a landslide win for Trump this country is done within 2 generations.

The only true socialists I’ve ever met are short sighted capitalists.

Liberalism has ALWAYS been about greed.

It's just another word they've bastardized.

If wanting shite you didn't even earn isn't greed, then there's no such thing.

Liberalism is about nothing more than "I want I want I want" and, from there...……"and I don't want to pay for it" because reasons.

Do you have any cognitive skills at all? Are you listening to what is being said by the candidates on Dem side.

Are any of them who are calling for Medicare for all telling their sheep that people on Medicare pay for it every month and paid into the Medicare system for decades.

The sheep believe they will get it for free.

Sanders supporters are lazy asses with a sense of self entitlement, they have no desire to actually work for anything. They expect and demand to have everything given to them, they’re pussies that need to frick off.
