This is a two minute clip from about 4 hours into Bernie Sanders' "filibuster" (technically not a filibuster, as there was no scheduled business for the senate) on the extension of the Bush tax cuts.

  • @m8ra1yn1l It's a pretty simple equation. You tax people to gain revenue. Cutting taxes results in a lower revenue for the government. I can't figure out how you could argue that tax cuts equal losses to government's revenue. If you want to start a debate on whether or not it is beneficial to increase the revenue through taxes, or to increase money in the market through tax cuts, be my guest. Don't spew misunderstanding of simple mathematics. It's more insulting to you than anyone else.

  • Wow, alot of negative comments from high income with low education "humans" here.

  • @Neosaigo GOVERNMENT SPENDING RAISES THE DEFICIT. RESTRICTING THE AMOUNT OF MONEY GOVERNMENT IS ALLOWED TO WASTE DOESN'T.

    This just proves the point that leftists do think they're more entitled to your income than you do.

  • @m8ra1yn1l Basic economics: Tax cuts raises the deficit.

    Point 1: Tax cuts to the rich without conditions (such as job creation) is the same as redistributing wealth to the top, it doesn't trickle down if you don't enforce conditions for the tax cuts.

    Point 2: Some Corporate giants pays no taxes, and actually make money off tax laws. Theft?

    Point 3: Under Republican budget plans, they want the main income of the rich to be taxed at 0% such as dividends and sub income at 16%. Fair?

  • "There is virtue in sharing." LOL

    That's right, but what Sanders is proposing is theft.

    I never managed to figure out how leftists equate tax cuts to loss in the government's money. It's as if the government has more right over our money than we do.

    Sanders, get fucked.

  • Bernie, you’re a twisted freak of nature and it’s fitting that the twisted freak policies you ascribe to are the most time proven failures in the history of the world.

    You are a thief and a loser as was your idol Karl Marx.

    Pathetic. Un-American. Traitor.

  • I listen to Senator Sanders every week on Thom Hartmann's show. Can somebody please clone this guy? Bernie is someone that I would like to have a beer with, and have as a professor. He truly understands the working man's plight.

  • Bernie Sanders is a fucking pimp.
