In every speech that Bernie makes, he must say what he alluded to at the end of this speech - that the extremely wealthy can not be so greedy that the regular people pay the price. But, he must do it in a stinging and meaningful way, like "OK, for those of you who want to buy 20 more yachts, that's fine, if that's what you want. But, you can not do it on the backs of the ordinary citizen!" This will answer those republican goons who say "This guy's a socialist...he wants to tell us what we can or can not do with our hard-earned money!" No, he doesn't want to tell you what to buy with your money. He just wants you to not do it on the backs of the regular people. And by making that sarcastic statement about buying 20 more yachts, it shows the sheer ridiculousness and greed of these people...that they are never satisfied with the luxuries they already have, and always still want more!
