How the wealthy constantly screw the poor

A definition in the negative only goes so far.

You're against everything and for nothing you can/will articulate.

You sound like a two year old throwing a tantrum.
That's not the least bit true. You just dislike my criticism of Bernard the imperialist sheepdog. I often articulate very clearly my carefully considered and nuanced positions on a great many issues. In fact, I even do so in a civil and respectful manner, though I do not mince words. However if someone is offensive or insults me, I will gladly return fire. Just because I have a flare for insult does not make for fallacy, as I tend to explicate arguments thoroughly before including insults.

I'm looking for solutions to America's problems
"Our Revolution™" (no refunds) was clearly the wrong place to look.

by being a sheepdog

A movement that is not a fake progressive movement, such as the inflatable one called "Our revolution™" (no refunds) which is full of people who hate actual leftist struggles known as idpol. Please learn to read.
OK then, obviously you're not interested in having a real discussion about it, that's fine

No, I said everyone hates Berniebabies.
every single one.

Look it up in Urban Dictionary:

Berniebaby: Young white men who cannot understand why their repetitive statements, uncompromising attitude regarding their own issues at the expense of all others and simple view of the world underpinned with white male racist entitlement makes them hated.

I want small businesses to realize they are not C corps and vote left; I've stopped buying from them because I used to support to the point of where I'd spend 50% more for the SAME product at Wal-mart and THEY don't get it..I put myself out for them- no more.

I did this forever and stopped a few months ago- tired of putting myself out financially for my neighbor when they don't return the favor.
Oh just be quiet, like the rest of us you shop in Wal-Mart because it's cheap.

were did all 22 of you go to work afterwards ? cool story though
6 of us went to a competitor together. A couple others had jobs already lined up elsewhere as well. The rest simply quit and went home in disgust without anything lined up. They took a bit of a hit of course, but it didn't take them long to find new work. Jobs were plentiful back then, which was the entire point to begin with.

Sorry, I have a moral compass but..Someone who can concur..

@ttystick would you say I just found out not too long ago based on your own personal experience?

In your opinion..

ROFL, the sad part is that you actually think there's a faction within the party that is more or less progressive than the rest of the party. The party itself is already a coalition ranging from center right to slightly left of center, joined to try to defeat the extreme right. What Bernard did was to create an overnight inflatable movement of dumb ass patchouli scented kids together and convince them that they were "our revolution™" (no refunds) at the perfect time to deflate any chance of any actual progressive movement gaining steam when a generation of millennials were finally starting to listen to the growing waves of activists that had been shaping political rhetoric for many years and divert them back into the DNC.

That's why leftists call him a sheepdog. Try to keep up, young man. The rest of us have been politically aware for much longer than you. I for example was a founding member of a veteran's antiwar group before you were out of high school. Instead of being bewildered and hurt that I can't stand Bernard, why don't you quit pining for him and recognize that he was sheepdoggin all along, way before he spent months campaigning for Hillary Clinton. Seriously you berners are to the DNC as Rawn Pawl was to the GOP.
we have no one to blame for whatever 'scent' our children are..they are a product of us.

You see, they're into 'experiences' rather than the gross 'materialism' of Silents and Boomers in keeping up with the Joneses.

Perhaps it was all those McD playgrounds and toy-filled Happy Meals which afforded them 'parenting without being a parent'? Back then, I was wondering what it would do, to grow up this way so different than myself..their moral compasses..the overall effect.

Average donation of Our Revolution is $21.94..Hillary? 144.89.

Her campaign also released a list of campaign bundlers, donors who each raised more than $100,000. Some of the donors included Clinton’s most ardent financial backers, including Hollywood media mogul Haim Saban; Susie Tompkins Buell, a wealthy California investor who was a major donor to the Ready for Hillary super PAC; Las Vegas publisher Brian Greenspun, a longtime friend and college classmate of Bill Clinton; billionaire JB Pritzker of Chicago; and Alan Patricof, a New York-based financier who served as Clinton’s finance chair when she first ran for Senate in New York.

Seems they have a good head on their shoulders imo.
