I'm sure some of you have seen this on your Facebook feed. Does Bernie have a plan for growing the private sector?

what's a private sector? In Bernie's utopian society we'll all be employees of the public sector.

Can someone please tell Bernie Spenders that the Federal Government already spends 3.5 Trillion per year?

Which is over $9,700 per man, woman and child each year.

Still not sure whether I am going Clinton or sanders this election but I can say even some of my conservative friends are going sanders. Even my father who has never voted Dem in a presidential election is leaning sanders.

That lead will grow as the news continues to roll out about Hillary.

One thing about Sanders, there isn't (that we know of) much dirt on him.

Yeah. That has as more to do with Hillary stumbling all over herself than Sanders. His timing is pretty good.

For all the talk of "fair" and complaining about what CEO's make, and anyone supporting this socialist pos, please be so kind as to inform me of what your abode looks like, and what is in it.

If you really are against the high pay they earn and the evil capitalistic companies, I would expect your house to be a barren and empty place with nothing in it. Theoretically, you should be living in a man made tepee instead of a house or apartment or townhome, as all are built by the "evil rich".

I would expect you to have no TV, computer, furniture, and you would especially not own an iphone. I mean, that would be hypocritical, as you are supporting the very thing you are railing against and if you had these high and mighty feelings you would live quite meager. But, who cares about being full of it when all you have to do is point the finger at others instead of at yourself.

Vote for Bernie if you are a weak, naive, envious, and fragile being. And while you are at it, go read your history to learn how real socialism works, as the top of the pyramid do not live like the masses.

I think this may be partly direct at me for the earlier post I made.

I have not and will not support Sanders or Hillary.

I have zero problem with a CEO that is making his company and stock holders money making all the money he,/she can. Reward those that do a good job.

I do have a problem with CEO that does a terrible job then leave with millions of dollars like the two CEO's I mentioned earlier.

When Carley Fiorina was at HP stock prices fell 50%, she gets fired and walks with 21 million dollars.

Bob Nardelli did a terrible job at Home Depot. It was reported he was literally hated. He walks away with 210 million dollars.

Their are plenty more examples if you would like to do a little research.

Please tell me how being against these terrible business practices is socialist.

When a CEO drives a company in the ground and walks with millions, who are they harming?
It is not the poor guy working low paying jobs, it is the investor that takes a hit.
Let's take HP. Millions of dollars was lost by investors yet the CEO was fired and walked away with $21 million with a big smile on her face?

You 2nd and 3rd are so full of fail, I don't have time to address that garbage.

Your last paragraph, can you please name any type of government where the top of the pyramid lives like the masses?

Its no different than hiring a football coach. They find a person they think will make things better, offer a salary (and stock options) usually with a guaranteed amount regardless of performance, then with performance comes extra perks. How many millions did Dooley walk away with? I'd like to say these type of hiring contracts are dumb but its part of the game and its how you attract the "best and brightest".

What gets me in the "wealth inequality" crowd is how so many people seem to think they can do the job of a CEO. Newsflash..they can't.
