Which comes first in Bernie's plan,

[upaloopa]

increased wages or increased taxes. His plans will raise taxes on everyone.
We will all pay more taxes but will we get a raise first and if so will the raise be offset by taxes?

1. Ooh, now I am scared

Not really.

[Aerows]

7. I think I've been made so afraid

that I am in shock and don't give a crap anymore. I'm voting for Bernie Sanders if he jumps out of an airplane with a parachute made of his own unwashed underwear.

As you might realize, some of us don't react to FUD in the way that :ahem: SOME Boomers :ahem: do.

I'm the forgotten Gen-X.

Attempting to scare us is like warning us about fighting them over here instead of over there.

We're already fighting them over here, it's just the definition of "them" is different.

9. :ahem: some boomers

Said the 60 year old, unafraid grandma. But I am mother of 3 gen-x ers, so I get where you are coming from.

[Aerows]

10. Sorry about that, you are right

edited to SOME Boomers.

2. How will Sanders' plan increase taxes on retired Social Security recipients?

How will "his plans raise taxes on everyone".?

[Aerows]

8. Raise the cap

and nobody would be having this conversation - but a selfish few exceeding an income of $128,000 a year are frightened that their SS cap will go up. Most would welcome the change.

The selfish few, though, don't see it that way. Because, you know, if you make six or seven figures a year, you can afford to not give a shit about your parents or grandparents.

3. Are you attempting to fear monger about higher taxes?

You may not be on the right web site.

4. Well:

6. Taking your money to give free stuff to tatted punks who should stay off your lawn and get a job

[sadoldgirl]

11. OH , my dog! He will raise the SS tax cap

for people earning more than $250,000. I am sure
that will hurt "everyone", especially the 90% in the
country.

Be afraid, be very very afraid of that monster!

(sarc)

12. What a disgusting post from a supposed Democrat. nt

[upaloopa]

14. Please give me the list if proper ideas

Democrats are supposed to have or else I my have to turn in my voter registration.

[Romulox]

15. Just scream, "SOSHIALISMMM!!!!". It's a more sophisticated take on the matter

than your OP.

[upaloopa]

18. How do you expect to compete in the general

election by calling people names when they ask a legitimate question?

[sadoldgirl]

17. How about that famous JFK word:Do not ask....

I am sure as a democrat you know it.

[upaloopa]

19. I was born when Truman was president.

Always voted for Dems

[Snotcicles]

21. They just get more trash worthy by the day. nt

13. coattails

I think Bernie's talking about rolling back Bush era tax breaks fot the rich. He is also talking about spending $1 trillion yearly on infrastructure, and Medicare for all. He's going to break up the banks, and reverse Citizens United. And don't forget free college for all and forgiving student debt. I might have forgotten a few things. He's going to get al this paassed given his 'long coattails,' but I've yet to see a list of congressional candidates runnig on this platfom. Should be a cinch.

[Report1212]

16. Bernie's plan is just Gillibrand/Senate Dem plan on paid leave

Meaning the entire Senate Dem caucus which is behind this plan wants to raise the payroll tax. So unless Hillary is the odd one out, everyone is for this, not just Bernie.

20. Pen to paper? Nt

[Kang Colby]

22. Neither.

Because he will never be elected.
