Over the weekend, when Democratic (Socialist) frontrunner Bernie Sanders was asked how much all of his ambitious plans would cost if they were implemented, he gave the worst possible answer. Simply put, he didn't know:
Anderson Cooper: Do you know how all-- how much though? I mean, do you have a price tag for-- for all of this?
Bernie Sanders We do. I mean, you know, and-- and-- the price tag is-- it will be substantially less than letting the current system go. I think it's about $30 trillion.
Anderson Cooper: That's just for Medicare for All, you're talking about?

Bernie is making some big mistakes lately talking to the media. Keep talking Bernie. Heard you lost Florida with your love for Cuba and Fidel.

"But Sanders does know that just having the rich "pay their fair share" won't come close. He's recently conceded that the middle class will pay more in taxes to help pay for his plans."
The rich already pay more than a fair share and, bingo, Bernie Sanders conceded that the middle class will pay more in taxes and why he has more than one supporter is beyond me. He doesn't hesitate to let us know what he thinks of the "deplorables" who are the hard-working, tax-paying citizens.

Oh, by the way, if public universities and colleges are free, teachers will be paid less, right? Or not at all?

Bernie will have you pay, say, $10,000 to the government and then give you back $1,000 in free stuff. Then he will expect you to thank him. What a deal.
Meanwhile, the economy will collapse as it does in all Socialist countries. Soon you won't have to worry about paying Bernie $10,000 because you won't have a job. Then the free stuff will dry up.
How stupid are the people that support Socialists?

Bernie voters don't care how he answers.
This is not a liberal vs. conservative issue; it is a intelligent vs. idiot issue.

Most of what Bernie is promising would never happen and he knows it. He could confiscate every penny from every single American and still couldn’t pay for it. He would have to start printing money and totally collapse our currency and with it the global economy. Oh, so that’s the plan....

Bernie doesn't have a clue. having spent his life enamored with socialism now when asked how he plans to implement his ideas, he stammers and stutters and says he has options. He has nothing! just like AOC, Warren and all the other ignoramuses.
In the business world when you try to sell your idea to a potential investor, they ask to see a business plan with five year performa. They want facts and figures, not some hyped up pie in the sky delusion.
Bernie is nothing more than a 78 year old college student who thinks CHE and Castro are cool. He never evolved pass that stage.
The only thing I give him any credit for is his tenaciousness.

Confiscating ALL the wealth of the top 10 Americans will not come close to paying for one year of Bernie's socialist giveaways. Let that soak in for a bit.
The top ten richest men in the world have something like $100 billion NET WORTH. The next seven have graduated down less. Assume that it is something like $125B, $120B, $110B, $100B, $95B, $90B, $80B, $75B, $70B, $70B and I read that Bloomberg at #11 has $62B. So, CONFICATE all of that money and factories, and homes and sell them off. The total? $935 billion. That is $0.935 trillion, less than ONE trillion if you take it ALL.
Bernie ADMITS that his Medicare for All will cost $30 trillion. So, all the total LIFETIME accumulated wealth of the top ten billionaires in the whole world, confiscated, won't provide even 1/30th of what Bernie proposes to spend in a year on just health care.
As usual, these things are absolutely, totally unaffordable in any possible way. There is not enough wealth in the whole world, let alone some fraction of that as taxes, to fund his insane schemes.
