The Democrat candidates are completely out of touch with reality and these debates prove it. Their plans would destroy our economy and our country, but they really don’t care. Part of the reason is that they, generally, have a level and source of income that would insulate them from the consequences of their policies, so they don’t have to care. They would not suffer under the policies they want to afflict upon regular Americans. Their salaries are paid by the government, and they have special access to highly profitable side hustles that would land the rest of us in jail if we were getting rich the same way. So, their socialist agenda will not adversely affect them, as they operate outside of the system and above the law.
Bernie and the rest of the 2020 candidates want higher taxes on the rich and the middle class. They want to take away your private health insurance, put you in long waiting lines for health care, and while you wait, your health gets worse and the worse it gets, the more expensive gets to treat and as it gets more expensive, the less likely the government will be willing to pay for it, depending on your age and the kind of care you need. But they don’t care. As a side note, at least they have dispensed with the elaborate fiction that they are only going to over-tax the rich. We knew that it would not end with just the rich.
What we have learned is that they are okay with YOU paying up to 70% + in income tax. For every $1000 you earn, you would get to keep $300. But they don’t care. They are taken care of. They have their own health insurance and they won’t be forced into Single Payer. Single Payer is for the peasants and pretty much anyone who is not residing in the DC Beltway. They want to take away your tax cuts, bring back job killing regulations, punish you for building wealth, force you to pay for college loans you never applied for, force you to pay slavery reparations you don’t owe, and give your wealth to illegal aliens who have no right to be here, in the first place.
