SOCIALISM USA! Bernie Slams ‘Wealth Inequality,’ Says 40% of US ‘Can’t Afford Basics'

posted by Hannity Staff - 12.24.18

Vermont Senator and potential 2020 candidate Bernie Sanders identified a major “moral issue” plaguing the nation this week; saying “wealth inequality” needs to be “addressed” because 40% of Americans “cannot afford the basics to live.”

“Wealth inequality is a profound moral issue this country must address. The richest 3 Americans cannot continue owning more wealth than the bottom half of our country, while over 40% cannot afford the basics to live,” said Sanders.

The self-described Democrat-Socialist found himself in hot water from supporters and climate change activists just weeks ago, when recent FEC filings revealed he spend large sums of money on private jet travel during the 2018 midterm elections.

posted by Hannity Staff - 12.03.18

Vermont Senator and potential 2020 candidate Bernie Sanders set his sights on “fossil fuel billionaires” Monday; saying the United States needs a “political revolution” to turn the country towards “clean energy.”

Sanders posted his incendiary comments on social media this week; slamming President Trump’s tax cuts as an outright “lie” to middle class Americans.

“During Trump’s campaign, he repeatedly promised the American people that ‘the rich would not gain at all’ from his tax plan. He said it would provide a ‘big-league tax cut for the middle class.’ He lied. It’s time for an economy that works for all of us, not just the rich,” Sanders tweeted.

The self-described Democratic Socialist is widely believed to planning another run for the White House in the coming months; refusing to deny his political ambitions when asked in recent interviews.

SOCIALISM USA! Bernie Claims USA ‘Owned’ and ‘Controlled’ by a Handful of ‘Billionaires’

posted by Hannity Staff - 12.13.18

Vermont Senator and likely 2020 presidential candidate Bernie Sanders slammed the United States capitalist system this week; baselessly claiming the country was “owned” by a small group of “billionaires.”

Sanders was speaking with The Real News Network in recent days when he unloaded on the current economic system; saying “incredible greed” is having a “negative impact on the fabric of our entire country.”

“We live in a nation owned and controlled by a small number of multi-billionaires whose greed, incredible greed, insatiable greed, is having an unbelievably negative impact on the fabric of our entire country,” said the self-described Democratic-Socialist.

“When we deal with climate change, when we deal with the economy, when we deal with housing, when we deal with criminal justice or immigration issues, we have got to deal with those in a holistic way, and understand why all of that is happening. Not see them as silo-ized separate issues,” Sanders added.
