So now because other people propose to know how to do it, its Bernie's idea/answer? Please...he is out there trumpeting things he doesn't know if/how they will work. And BTW Nobel Laureates are not infalliable just because of an award...remember that Nobel Peace Prize winner that killed American citizens with drones? I think his name was Obama or something like that. An award does not equate a 100% workable solution.

Just one example:

Group Invests $5 Million To Hedge Bets in Lottery - NYTimes.com

Quote:
State lottery officials say that the group bought tickets for 5 million of a possible 7 million combinations, at $1 each, in a lottery with a $27 million jackpot. Only a lack of time prevented the group from buying tickets for the remaining 2 million combinations.
Real enough for you?

And to imply he won't figure it out is just biased opinion. But what can one expect from those sold out to the Hill?
And for you to imply that he WILL figure it out is based on fact?

What governs my vote and support is who I believe and trust.

If everyone went along w/ the pundits and supporters of the competition, there would be no such thing as a primary or an election--just a dictatorship.

I'm here for today. I don't bother w/ polls

The Peace Prize has nothing to do with scientific Nobel prizes. Dozens of the most accomplished economists in the world advocate for breaking up the big banks. Why shouldnt Bernie listen to this? He has top notch economic advisors. Of course he cant know all the legalities about highly complex issues, thats what advisors are for.

Why would anyone assume he doesn't have the intelligence to figure it out?

Hillary does, everyone in office could figure it out too for that matter. But that's not the point.

The point [b]is[b] who will do it?

Bernie will!

Well since economics is not a hard (black and white) science this argument is null and void. If it were, economists would run the economy and we would never have any depressions, high unemployment rates, or stock market crashes. Unlike actual science where if you mix chemical A and chemical B the result is X just about 100% of the time.

You can't have this both ways, you question why someone would assume he cant, but you are just assuming that he can. Completely illogical.
