I mean you get taxed more in the second situation, must be the worse deal.

Yes, the one thing I think of when I think of the impoverished who can't afford healthcare is the amount of international travel they do...

I'd rather stay here and fight for the change I think is the best for everyone.

Would rather spend 5k more in that scenario to get the same product(s)?

Why hasnt he applied what he allegedly learned from the ussr to Venezuela?

I guarantee I would not save 5k

That would only happen for people that make less than 20k a year

Was talking exclusively for the scenario only. Numbers weren't accurate.

Does Bernie run Venezuela? Are the policies he's proposing the exact kind that exist in Venezuela? Or are people throwing around an obviously broken system that isn't remotely what is being proposed to try and scare people?

He's trying to "rework" communism to fit modern times. It won't work.

I can predict my tax expense, how exactly can you predict out of pocket.
Oh that's right, you can't.

No. Mostly. No.

Bernie pretends to not be a communist. He pretends his healthcare plan is like the ones in Western Europe where private health insurance is very prevalent. And his supporters are dumb enough to think he one of those nice clean enlightened Western Europe socialists instead of a remnant from the 50s US Communist scene. Now don’t get me wrong, Trump sucks but Bernie is orders of magnitude worse.

I don’t get why people are voting for him even though he’s a 78 year old man in very poor health

While I believe Sanders is a fraud and is an easy win for Trump, he's not advocating for communism or socialism.

He's merely arguing for a better safety net structure, on the backs of the wealthy.

It's not a good plan. It's not a well thought plan.

But wow, does he get the numbers.

No one actually voted for him. It's all Russian Intervention.

If Sanders were to be elected and raise taxes on the extremely wealthy, what do you think's going to happen?
Do you think those folks are going to stick around, or find somewhere else to live where they won't get bent over?
You're going to run out of other people's money sooner than you think.

I was reading all the funny comments to the yahoo article about Bernie winning again tonight...
"This is great, my wife and I are so excited about Bernie 2020. We are already discussing quitting our jobs and letting Bernie pay our way, free college for our kids, no health care costs and let all the rich folks pay our way - about time. Its almost like winning the lottery so vote Bernie 2020 now!"

Doesn’t it seems suspicious that they called the race with only 4% of the votes in?

Also why did they choose to use a app? For all we know the Russians probably hacked the app to get votes for Bernie

I do have some say in how healthy I live my life, whereas i have no control how the rest of America lives theirs.
I'll take my chances on me, but shouldn't be forced to take my chances on you.

America is one of fattest countries in the world: America also has very high health care costs

I feel as there may be some relationship

Am I the only one who's noticed that billionaire is the new millionaire?
Hmmm, I wonder why that changed over the last couple elections?
