Thank you, Senator Sanders! Vermont should be proud.
All--Please contact your own senators and congressmen, and tell them to support Sen. Sanders. This is the only way to move this forward.
Open a new tab, type their name in Google. Their names are available at senate.gov and house.gov. They should all have easy-to-use comments pages, and I believe they're legally required to have someone read your comments and respond to them upon your request.
people like nm8aol astound me, they refuse to accept the fact that Republicans are only in for themselves: the elite and fooled by Joe the plumber types. The only fault he can muster is the fact that Sanders is a Social-democrat and that MUST mean he stands for communism, right? (sarcasm) TYPING IN ALL CAPS DOESN'T ADD MERIT TO YOUR POINT, reading books does
@xcentricnews--"NOT A BIT SURPRISED THAT THE FEDERAL RESERVE GOT TO THE SENATE, I HAD EXPECTED BERNIE SANDERS TO OFFER 604 WHICH WAS THE SAME AS 1207 WHICH IS AUDIT THE FED BILL AND AT THE LAST MINUTE HE SWITCHED IT AND WATERED IT DOWN AND REALLY IT ADDS NOTHING. IT'S A POSSIBILITY THAT IT EVEN MAKES THE CURRENT CONDITIONS WORSE." RON PAUL
that bill was overshadowed by so much more than bernie. i doubt mr sanders is the shill you make him out to be.
is that a ron paul quote? or are you ron paul? lol!!!
my point is this: sometimes, these people have to deal with what they are given. bernie at least comes up with a plan for the money and that is to reinvest in our country's infrastructure. now if you're saying that his intention is to do this with only commerce in mind and not the people, then ok. but who knows?
the "States", if there actually is such a thing other than "body politics", cannot fix infrastructure if the wealthy don't pay what they have taken out. And that would be EQUITY. Who cares about their golf allowance and several vacation homes? please...
anyway, those are some big words, "socialist" marxist", especially for a country operating within a fiat economy. so please, explain frame of reference and what you mean?
@mn8aol Yes, I have just shown that you don't understand what Socialism even means.
Seriously I love seeing people saying "socialism socialism" in the U.S, but never defined which socialism archetype.
Socialism have never been defined in the U.S, we were all just taught it was a "bad" thing and should fear and reject it. However once you actually study what socialism is, you would realize you have to define the socialism model before the word can be used in a discussion.
@mn8aol Sorry I don't usually check my responses, so sorry it was delayed.
Actually no not all socialism are rooted in Marxist theory and practices, but Marxism is the most mainstream. However even within the Marxist theory and practices there are various different modes of socialism. Outside of Marxism, socialism is even more varied.
This is why I say we have to define which socialism it means in America, but your question actually doesn't seem to go toward any specific point. O.o
@Neosaigo -- MARXIST DIALECTIC WORKS BY SUBVERSION AND THE GOAL IS WORLD COMMUNISM. WHILE THERE ARE DIFFERENT STRATEGIES USED TO ACHIEVE THAT GOAL, I CAN TELL YOU THAT THROUGH THE INFLUENCE OF THE DIALECTIC THE WORLD IS MOST ASSUREDLY HEADING TOWARD THAT GOAL.
You are assuming just because you are supporting pure capitalism (do you?) that MUST means I support absolute socialism modes within the Marxist theory.
Bullshit. Yes, ABSOLUTE socialism 'eventually' lead to communism. However since when have I been saying anything about pure socialism?
Anyone with half a brain knows pure capitalist or pure socialist model is doomed to fail. Your slippery slope argument simply demonstrated your ignorance again.
@Neosaigo -- ANYONE WHO DOESN'T BELIEVE IN ABSOLUTES IS A COMMUNIST IN DENIAL. MARX AND ENGELS SUMMED UP THE 10 PLANKS OF COMMUNISM IN ONE SENTENCE: THE ABOLITION OF PRIVATE PROPERTY. IT IS NOT AN OVERSIMPLIFICATION TO SAY THAT MARXIST IDEOLOGY TRESPASSES AND WORKS TO REMOVE BOUNDARIES AND BORDERS FROM THE NATIONAL LEVEL ON DOWN TO INDIVIDUAL THROUGH HEGELIAN-DIALECTIC PROCESSES THAT MOVE PRINCIPLES TO COMPROMISE. HISTORICALLY WATCHMEN WOULD DEFEND A WALLED CITY NO MATTER THE COST.
@mn8aol What you failed to mention is that world communism only works under very specific conditions, none of which we are even close to fulfilling. (Such as true democracy and infinite resources)
So the only modes in the social theory which apply to our current situation is actually social-capitalist hybridization. Which the world including the U.S have been fine tuning for a very long time. Every successful economy so far have been social-capitalist hybrid. Which one you want to discuss?
@Neosaigo -- HEGELIAN-DIALECTIC PROCESSES ARE CENTRAL TO COMMUNIST IDEOLOGY AND SOCIAL-CAPITALIST HYBRIDS ARE EVIDENCE OF THE SUCCESS OF THOSE PROCESSES.
Gee, an anti-capitalist filibustering extended tax cuts. Why? Because this joker knows it will hurt the economy and grow the state. No more revenue increases to a Congress with a 21% approval rating. No more revenue increases to admitted socialists like Sanders! Take our country back!
@mn8aol unless your millionaire, he is saving you from people who could give two s**ts about your self interest. Its amazing how you baggers continue to support republicans who have policies in place that are aimed at destroying the middle class and driving up the national debt. ...ie tax cuts for top 2%, yet they filibuster a bill that would give aid to the first responders...
he is providing advice on what to do with that extra money you jackwagon!
didnt you hear him talk about how we need to re-build our infrastructure and thereby create more jobs?!!!???? that wouldnt be transfering wealth to the state, they would just be an intermediary for the people!
im not a statist either, but at least he has a solution for what to do with the money if the tax cuts were to expire.
@xcentricnews--STOP TAKING MONEY FROM THE PEOPLE, WHETHER RICH, MIDDLE CLASS, OR POOR, STOP TAKING MONEY FROM THE PEOPLE TO GROW THE STATE, MR SANDERS. I DO NOT WANT TO LIVE IN A COMMUNIST COUNTRY. I DO NOT WANT MY CHILDREN TO LIVE IN A COMMUNIST COUNTRY. STOP TAKING OUR MONEY! STOP TAKING OUR MONEY! STOP TAKING OUR MONEY! STOP TAKING OUR MONEY!
@xcentricnews--CENTRALIZED FEDERAL FUNDING ONLY CREATES MORE DEPENDENCY ON FEDERAL FUNDING AND CENTRALIZED FEDERAL IDEOLOGY! STOP TAKING MONEY FROM THE PEOPLE! STOP TAKING MONEY FROM THE PEOPLE! STOP TAKING MONEY FROM THE PEOPLE!
Jim Rogers for Secretary of the Economy. And Bernie Sanders for President in 2012.

no one is taking your money, especially in a country where the people do not own the money system.
your aggression is misplaced. I think you need to direct it towards the fed reserve, G20, and bilderburg group.

@mn8aol You don't even understand what socialist and marxist are judging by your comment. Of course unless you watch only FOX "news".
Plus typing in entirely capital letters shows you still believe shouting louder is more important than actually having a valid point. LOL
