I did not watch the latest Democratic debate, but have read and listened to some highlights and summaries. It appears to have been more of a riot than a debate.
I am in NO WAY standing up for Bloomberg. In my opinion, he defines hypocrite and really can't figure out which side of his mouth to talk out of. To paraphrase, Bernie basically said that Bloomberg has made too much money and it's immoral and wrong. So, my question is, what is one to do when they have made "too much" money? Mandatory retirement? Keep working at 100% tax rate? Close down his businesses and terminate all employees?

Hussein obama once said : “I Do Think At A Certain Point You’ve Made Enough Money”. Never mind that he and moochelle just bought an incredibly expensive home at Marthas` Vineyard. He was also ignorant enough to actually say: "You didn`t build that", even though all of us have the same opportunities to work hard, take risks, and hopefully succede. Capitalism is a wonderful mechanism for gathering wealth. It rewards a great work ethic, and literally, anyone can do it, with an attitude of sacrifice, dedication, and of course, sweat equity. Any of us are only limited by our willingness to work. Hard.
I don`t watch demon-crats debate. I have a weak stomach, and anti-America, socialist, statists make me nauseous.

What is too much money? Who gets to decide what amount is too much? Why do people think they have a right to say what other people should do with their money?
The thing is, the people who some say have too much money don't exactly have the money they are "worth". They own businesses valued at a certain amount of money and not all of those businesses a sole ownership. They own a majority stock position of their own companies and I bet if each of us looked at our 401k stock portfolios closely we also own a piece of those companies. So "knocking those companies down a peg or two" will actually hurt all of us in the end.

Bernie was once against millionaires....until he became one. Now he is against billionaires.

Bernie was once against millionaires....until he became one. Now he is against billionaires. . And those who seemingly want to tax the "wealthy" out of existence don`t appear to understand that, if they want to give more of their wealth to the government, they are entirely free to write a huge check to that government. They don`t need to impose their immoral expectations on everyone else. But they seem to miss that little nuance...

The kicker to me is that he thinks it's perfectly fine for him to own three homes because he "needs them ",but if anyone else does they have "abused the system ".. Not sure but I don't think he's ever had a job(outside of being a publicly paid servant¿). GOOD GRIEF

I figure I better root for Bernie. I am more worried about the Democrats nominating Bloomberg or Ex Mayor Pete. I think it would be a landslide for Pres Trump to go against Crazy Bernie.
I wonder how many people go out and vote on the caucuses vs. the actual election?

It amazes me that anyone could vote for those who champion perversion, butchering infants in the womb, destroying our borders, trampling constitutional rights, or making the government our "god", by having government provide for us. That kind of perspective just baffles me.

It's that simple (evil vs good).

That kind of perspective just baffles me. It's a slow transition to the point we are at now. It's not a bit surprising to some because it's been going on for nearly 100 years and most have been okay with it. This mess started at the end of the great depression and has been built with little stones. It's only now that people have such strong opposition to it because the stones have become huge and extremely noticeable.
