In case you hadn't noticed, the middle-class and the lower class aren't really all that far apart anymore.

Source? http://www.ontheissues.org/2016/Bernie_Sanders_Tax_Reform.htm states "over 50%"but that he"never said" 90%.
I guess it;s who you believe. http://thinkprogress.org/economy/2015/05/26/3662773/sanders-90-percent-tax/
Well, if we are claiming a candidate said something, the source should be the candidate's campaign, a published comment, document, video, or
other source which can be verified as coming from the candidate or their campaign staff. Otherwise, it's unofficial hearsay.
But he's a politician, so both are probably true LOL
Lol...possibly. If you have a source that shows he said it then it would show his own website to be innacurate (or downright lying).
Again...... Politician lol

Sorry we need some anti trump memes to keep up the shilling. - t. Bernie posters
TinyAngryDog
He seems to have rewritten how he got his money (it's a lot easier to stay rich than to build up from nothing) and he regularly talks about
what a success he has always been in business, but I believe 7 of his businesses going into bankruptcy contradicts that.
And for the record not everyone who is anti-Trump is pro-Bernie.
FYI - "bankrupt" doesn't mean shutdown, those businesses got reorganized and they all now thrive. If anything that makes him more qualified
I'm curious (for both candidates) what history you feel they have attempted to rewrite? (serious question)
DammitIshouldbeworking
All of the histories.
I posed a question asking which specific histories these two candidates are trying to change..lots of debate, no precise answer to question.
Wrong. He wants it easier to immigrate whilst harder to keep out illegals who tend to be cartels. (I have illegal Mexican family)
I'm assuming "he" means Trump? How does Trump's policy make it harder to keep out cartels?
I do agree, however, that Trump wants legal immigration to be easier. Having family who would like to immigrate, are you for or against him?
BaxtersSoup
Trump says immigrants are murderous drug dealers. Blatantly not true. Also thinks vaccines could cause autism, Not a popular opinion here
He did not say immigrants are murders, rapists, drug dealers, etc...he said that of the people crossing illegally into our country
Also not true.
Which of these statements do you find untrue?
Illegal immigrants dont cause violent crime at a disproportionate rate. I understand the borders need to be more secure but Trumps claims (1
include rapists, murders, etc "and some, I suppose, are good people." Vaccines he did say might be better if spread out over time, but he's
not anti-vac(all his kids are vaccinated), just thinks the gov should let parents and doctors spread them out over time to reduce variables.

Thank you. People need to understand this.
that be the path it would lead us down?
Economic models deal with variables at the time, technology, movement of people, and movement of goods. What can be predicted is (1/2)
That established trends will cause a continuation of current patterns. Changing the equation changes the trend. (2/2)
None of those things would help me, and I'm barely middle class.

People in labor unions make $3.50/hr more on average than people who aren't, plus much better benefits.
FFPatrick
But how much do you pay the labor union for that $3.50 more an hour? Plus it keeps out people who are not in the union
Union dues are usually about $30-60/month. For avg $3.50/hr extra in wages and an extra $7/hr in benefits. Wage/benefit numbers are from BLS
Industries with high unionization also benefit workers in nonunion shops because they have to compete with union shops for workers.

Free markets got me my job, therefore my health insurance.
StarrryNight
You don't need health insurance if your system wasn't shit.
AllPowerfulAtheismo
Not as expensive as when the free market crashes due to deregulation
ProfessorExpert
His precious Scandinavian countries have more economic freedom than the U.S.
LordIggy
That depends a lot on your definitions.
DamnitBobby
And the Cubs have a shot at the series
vernon2brwn
No.
kurotan
If the Cubs win, I'm calling shenanigans.
tatoe12
Welp, here we are. Still want to?
IusedtobeapervertIstillambutIusedtobetoo
And the Pepsi thingy they had in the movie... They had that at Comic con
BigStoutBooster
I need a link. I'm curious now
Kade974
Can you imagine all the Back to the Future fans that placed bets at the start of the season on the Cubs because of the movie right now xD
menshi
i did
Shockywell
Well? @menshi
menshi
that was for last season, to make BTTF correct so i lost
Cheeseburgler
And the Bengals have a shot at the Superbowl. What a year to be alive.
philosophosaurus
No the cubs have a shot at the series the bengals could go 5-10 if AJ green and Dalton go down. Two very different points in the season.
FrankHorigan
The prophecy has almost been fulfilled
MichaelJCabooseLeaderOfTheBlueArmy
The world is truly coming to an end
chaserrrr
Obligatory Canadian comment: sorry to break to you but the Jays are taking the series this year.
geriatricsanatore
I hope they do
philosophosaurus
The mets are going to tear up the cubs. Sorry...
headlesstrauma
The blue Jays...
2manyspooks
Will win
BobbyOntario
Goddam right they will. Game 1 tonight brother!
BobbyOntario
Pepsi made Pepsi perfect
BiteTheHandsThatThieve
If they win it'll be the first time since before the fall of the ottoman empire.
AlltheAnswers
And my buddy who teaches across the hall will be insufferable.
BiteTheHandsThatThieve
No cubs fans in socal. Must be like raiders fans any time they win a single game.
TheAmericanMacho
Ha! It's funny cause there are no Raiders fans.
BiteTheHandsThatThieve
Sure there are. Prisons are over crowded.
bizon1829
To be fair though, Cubs fans have endured a lot of pain. I'd cut them a break if they won it.
NudeMotivation
I said I wish I could go back in time and put some money on the Cubbies!
SomeonePeedInMyPants
.....shark still looks fake
Therackstar
Best.
Resurrectionist
They were vegas favorites well before the season even started. They knew people would be betting on them this year.
NudeMotivation
(That quote is from part 2 when Marty gets the idea to buy the sports almanac)
smashpro1
Actually, they gave 40-1 odds before the season started. People bet on them every year.
bizon1829
And if you go back about 1 year (before Maddon was hired), they were at 50-1 for this year.
sangatster
The piece of the puzzle that convinced me. It's all coming together just like its supposed to. Now somebody pick me up some newspapers.
Lamech777
Still hyped for Jaws 19!
Taikwin
Don't worry, unless somehow we cure Michael Fox's Parkinson's in the next two weeks and Jaws 19 comes out, the future is wrong.
RevengeByAnyOtherNameIsNotAsSweet
electroshock therapy has proven to be very successful but maybe not in his type.
Specificlude
Could we substitute Jaws 19 for Sharknado 2?
MegaLoMonkey
Ummm there is a Sharknado 2, and 3, and 4 confirmed, apparently... So, nearly 19...
StygianRenegade
Fuck that, I want a delorian.
sangatster
There was at least one and I think several references to "flux capacitor" in StarTrek TNG. I think it was a loose reference to BTTF.
digitalutopia
Of all the things in BTTF, you want the easiest thing to get? Okay then. :p
StygianRenegade
Actually it's not the easiest thing to get, only about 6,500 of them exist worldwide.
StygianRenegade
I am just realizing I should mention I live in America and live with Crippling debt from trying to learn something in a for-profit college.
chupacabraattack
you can get one for less than $20k
digitalutopia
Yes, but they actually exist. In fact 13 of them are for sale or auction on classiccars.com. Cheapest being around 25k
