OK, so if you believe that its horrible that candidates are bought in exchange for political favors and you are supporting Bernie Sanders, please explain. I mean Bernie is just "buying" your political favor (ie. your support/money/vote) in exchange for free stuff like free tuition, doubling minimum wage, etc. I find it interesting that I'm to believe one side of this is better than the other.
For the record I don't think its good on either side when money buys influence, which is whats going on here.
Powerful people using money to get what they want done has been going on since the beginning of society. This is hardly anything new.
Agreed, but my point is that I want to hear from Bernie voters who seem to be the ones that trumpet the "big business / Wall Street buys candidates" mantra....I want to understand the justification of how their actions and what Bernie is doing is different. He wants power to do what he thinks is "right" and he is attempting to get it by offering handouts and prizes, just like big businesses do.
