Before someone answers with the generic answer "Make the rich and corporations pay their fair share", how SPECIFICALLY will Bernie reduce the national debt while at the same time increasing spending for many new welfare/social programs.

Instead of parroting what Bernie says, please EXPLAIN.

The same people who decry Trumps "bogus" tax plan because of it's 10Trillion hole over the next decade are perfectly fine with Sanders plan and it's 18 Trillion hole.

Well, in defense of Trump's plan, it would hopefully incubate new businesses. Bernie's idea is to trap businesses and the U.S. and tax them as much as he can.

Someone who doesn't know what QE is probably shouldn't start economic threads or polls.

Where's option C? Which would be "Do your own god damned research and understand basic economic principles".

It's not my job to research Bernie's economic plans (which I'm sure are quite ghastly). I only hear empty phrases from Sanders fans, so I'd like to hear a detailed explanation for once. Saying that people and corporations "need to pay their fair share" over and over again is as bad as Trump saying "I'll just get it done".

The debt can never be and won't be paid back. It's no longer possible.

Eventually they will default on the USD. Just like they did in 1971 & 1933.

That doesn't mean that we should add more to it like Bernie is suggesting.
