So you have your interpretation on what it all means and how everything SHOULD be.. My interpretation is different.,
You're a conservative and I'm a liberal, so that's to be expected.
I have given Bernie some positive comments .. However he is another filthy rich politician, who did wind up playing ball with Hillary DESPITE being screwed.. So his principles were compramised. .
It was a last ditch effort to get Hillary to adopt some of his positions. He did so grudgingly, just as she grudgingly took on aspects of his platform. It was one hand washing the other. I wasn't particularly fond of his decision to do so because it felt like something an establishment politician would do. However, I understood his reasoning. He wanted to enact his agenda, even if he had to play ball with a flawed candidate to do so.
Besides in this culture of calling people out on hypocrisy. .Any filthy rich person who advocates how others should be taxed insanely to supplement the poor should live like a minimalist. .
I do.. You would be surprised if you came in my house and saw how we live by the essentials.. It is the most liberating lifestyle..(for me anyway)
My wife donates a lot of time and money to animal shelters, and that is our giveback..
Why don't Bernie, Hillary or any of these other "robin hood" advocates do the same?
I don't consider Hillary to be a "robin hood" advocate. She put down socialism during the primaries almost as much as right wingers do.
Sanders is one of the least wealthy senators, ranking as the 86th wealthiest in 2013. His net worth that year was $330,000. In comparison, the Clintons made $25 million from speaking fees alone in 2014.
Sanders puts his money where his mouth is when it comes to supporting Trump's campaign promises to stop TPP, reign in big pharma, and protect Social Security and Medicare. After all, he held these ideals before Trump.
He's not nearly as compromised as most politicians are. You can be rich and still fight for the poor.
We have done the church state thing enough...just another contradiction. .
What's the contradiction? It seems cut and dried to me. You're free to believe in God and even to pray in public, so long as you don't force everybody else to do the same. That's why teacher led prayer was struck down.
