18 CEOs Called Out By Bernie Sanders

a reply to: Puppylove

So throw the wounded veteran who can't work and needs disability to the dogs, it's just a bribe no one actually needs help.

To the tune of over 18 trillion dollars in debt.

To so many government programs that were created, and never designed to be able to fund themselves.

Make and emotional argument for one of the MOST corrupt forms of government that exists.

Government was not created to pay for our existence.

Sanders and everyone else needs to get that.

Because for those who aren't paying attention government already can't pay it's bills.

They can't even fund those programs.

Even with borrowing trillions from China, Japan.

Printing trillions more with fiat currency.

Printing trillions more in 'treasuries'.

The stupidity has to end.

Sanders KNOWS he is writing checks we can't cash, and the government can't cash.

May I ask what is the purpose of government anyway? Thought it was supposed to be, by the people, for the people. If it's not actually helping the people in any way what so ever? What exactly is it supposed to do?

excellent point. one thing is for certain, the vets wouldn't be disabled if we weren't going around the world making bankers and corporations richer, at the expense of the people of other nations and so those same bankers and corporations can turn the whole world into a bunch of free laborers living in mass poverty. wall street funded the bolshevik revolution and then benefited off the captive market that was created since the people all became free labor under communism. this is the problem when it gets down to brass tacks. communism was being upheld by the globalist corporations, many of which are right there in wall street.

Defend the national borders and uphold the rule of law.

It is supposed to keep us out of wars for one thing.

Socialism ENABLED and sustained the most apocalyptic catastrophe in the history of the universe.

What apocalyptic universal expanding travesty are you talking about?

World War One.

Before WW1 there were no passports, no secret police, no income taxes, no Fascists, no Communists, no nukes, no WMD,
no Main Stream Media, no Decade Economic Depression and no way for there to be a WW2.

Do you consider your side to be informed voters?

What do you base your view of the world on?

a reply to: Semicollegiate

And you blame world war I for all of that? Not only world war I, but only one part of the whole thing? How does that make sense?

Maybe "all that" was why WW1 happened.

Maybe it was part of the master plan.

Hmmm.

Strange "coincidences" eh.

Looks like they own Killary , she is a pawn of the banking cartels where Sanders is opposed to them.

Not entirely true.
A company pays income taxes on profits not revenues. When they don't make a profit for the year they don't pay taxes.
general motors lost millions before their bailout and likely didn't pay taxes for those years.

The issue is in how they tabulate profit. The majority of people feel they should be paying taxes on the profit of each item they sell on a per item basis. What many of the large companies do is they push all of their profit to just one year, so that they pay no taxes in most years, and then they use those losses to offset the taxes they pay on their profits.

Large corporations are able to set it up so that they lose 10 million one year, 20 the next, 15 the year after, then close it out losing 25 million for a total of 70 million lost. Then they have a 5th year where they make 100 million in profit. The 100 and 70 cancel out and the company only pays taxes on 30 million.

OK, so we know about these problem companies and we know about the tax system problems.

Now what's the solution start-to-finish?

The tax system is not the problem, the spending system is the problem.

The spending issues can't be fixed, as it is we've gutted our budgets trying to do so. They're more lean and efficient right now than at any time in the past 100 years. The bottom line is that taxes need to increase. We need to cover the deficit, we need to cover the growing social security outlays, we need to rebuild our infrastructure, and there's other spending measures to argue too. Then on top of that we need to start generating a surplus to make debt payments and get our credit rating back to AAA. All told, that means our budgets need to go from about 3.5 trillion to 5.5 trillion and the only way to do that is by raising taxes. It's the financially responsible thing to do.

okay if i understand the system correctly, column A (hillary) is funded by wall street. column B (bernie) is funded by unions (mostly socialist). to that i would add that column A is benefiting and/or has benefited globally, by column B once it's gone full bore socialist, particularly communist socialist. these two are business partners in the backdrop. for example, when stalin starved the ukrainians to death, he stole their farms, forced prisoners of the state to farm the land for free, then sold the grain thus harvested to the united states.

ford built a car plant there, and several other wall street (globalist) businesses had subsidiaries in the soviet union.

sounds interesting. and fix the court system. i was ashamed to learn that most countries don't allow plea barganing as they recognize it as coercion. ohmygosh how did it get this bad!?!

Plea Bargains are merely a matter of convenience. The courts are overloaded because there's too many criminals being found, and there's no time or to try them all so they give them plea bargains. That way you get 100x the convictions in 20% of the time.

If he tries to get the money by SuperPAC or Corporate Money you'd be calling him a sell out to the status quo.

If he tries to get the money by individual donation he's not a serious contender because he can't buy the presidency.

No matter what he does you'll find fault in it regardless. This just makes you dishonest. An honest person who is truly objective will give credit where credit is due. You just twist everything around with your lies and BS.

It's almost like you never want anyone to think you have any credibility ever.

It's assembly line justice. Just rush them through, collect the money and get to the next one.

That's not justice. It's criminal extortion. Legalized Mob Style Shake Down.
