So his plan won't cost 19 trillion?

No one knows what his tax hike is and who it affects because he hasn't released details. I've seen 19.6. I've seen 15. It's all conjecture at this point. But I do love hearing how all of you already know what it is lol. It is very entertaining.

So basically you are voting for him based on ideology. That's always a great idea /sarcasm.

Keep back pedaling when logic is thrown at you though. It is very entertaining.

There's one thing we all know.. there will be a tax hike. It will affect everyone including middle class. He's admitted this as so. He says it will only slightly burden the middle class and heavily weight on the top bracket..

We will see won't we?

Dodge much?

You're essentially like the hundreds of thousands of liberals out there that think huge tax hikes on "billionaires" is the solution to fixing our debt problem and funding other liberal agendas set forth by our socialist president.

None of it will work. But if you keep screaming Bernie loud enough because he had a few good talking points in debates and campaigns (stop me if you've heard that recently cough cough Obama), maybe you'll get your man in the office. Only problem is soon as he's there, none of what he's saying will ever happen and if a few do, they won't fix the problem it's supposed to fix (again, stop me if you've heard that recently..).

Open your eyes zwick.

I'm voting for him because his values/ideas align with mine.. which is how you're supposed to vote. Do you vote differently?

I do, but I also don't live in a delusional ideological world, so the approach actually works for me.

There it is. I was wondering when zwick was going to play the "I know more than you, so I am right" card. Took longer than usual.

Now watch as zwick continues to deflect (by acting superior to al) instead of legitimately answering a logic based question.

I will admit, I read huffpo from time to time. It makes it very easy to predict which talking point a liberal is going to spew on me when we have a discussion.

I wish more people did this instead of the partisan, blind following that politics has turned into. I respect people who do so.

I disagree with almost everything that Sanders espouses but have no problem with people voting for him if he reflects their views. It's exactly why I will vote for Santorum, even if he has no shot at winning the nom.

Completely different than saying "I know more than you, so I am right." You seem to be knowledgable but I will explain it for you.

It is in my opinion that most liberal ideas fall into their ideology and when it is actually applied in real life the ideas come crashing down. Most of what sanders is spewing is ideology that sounds great but most likely has no chance of working. You have an ideological outlook, thus your views would line up with somebody who has an ideological outlook as well.

If that still doesn't make sense to you, then I don't know what to tell you. Ask your wife.

What exactly would you like me to respond to specifically? That's his plans have no chance of working or liberals ideology's "come crashing down" when faced with reality? The ambiguity of the latter makes it impossible to address for one... do you have specific ones you'd like to discuss?
His plans certainly do have a chance of working. Will it work with the current congress? Nope.. no chance in hell. If republicans lose the senate does it? Hard telling but I'd venture a yes. Remember, we were told ACA had no chance in hell also.. where does that stand now?

Blatantly lied? Come on Zwick, I had it on my laptop as a jpg and said I THOUGHT it was from Wash Post. I never said for sure because I couldn't remember.
