Side note, nothing that bernie sanders will do, unless you are making over 250k a year will affect you besides providing you with a better quality of life.

I was happily wasting time while waiting for a boat ride and I ran across your comment. Just exactly how is Bernie Sanders going to provide anyone (other than himself should he win the presidency) "with a better quality of life?" Please be specific, give concrete examples.

As a matter of full disclosure, I don't think ANY president can provide a "better quality of life." Such a statement is so subjective as to be meaningless. Mother Theresa thought she had a great quality of life while Bill Gates may think she lived in squalor.

Keep in mind that Obama promised "Hope and Change" and all I have ever seen out of that is more "change" going to the IRS and a health care system with increasingly high costs.

I look forward to the specifics you can provide to support your claim about Sanders.

Sure, first of all hope and change was a movement, that I might add we did not elect into office. Obama inspired the movement. If anyone that was a part of that movement, thought that electing Obama meant: with a snap of our fingers, yay we won hope and change! Yay new everything out of nowhere! huzzuh! Now its done we can go back to eating Doritos and not giving a crap about anything! well then they were wrong. And if anyone thought that was the point of the movement? they are wrong too. Hope and change is something we have to keep fighting for, and hopefully, we will keep fighting for. You don't elect ideals into the white house. If anyone on either side thought thats what hope and change meant, then they were just flat out wrong.

Now for quality of life. With a better economy, more jobs, healthcare, great working conditions, time off for family leave, time off for vacation, higher wages, and policies that will push for mandates for all of this? that is how Bernie Sanders, focusing all of his term on fixing our broken economy, can make for a better quality of life for the people that live here in the USA.

There is A LOT of influence that the president and his office can do to affect, and DOES affect your quality of life. It is the central issue that drives the governments of most developed nations.. not the nation that spends more on military than the next 14 countries combined mind you, but MOST countries.

and absolutly yes, quality of life is subjective... but there are ways you can objectively measure it: http://theweek.com/articles/463919/h...trys-happiness

Leaving the "hope and change" rationale you gave aside for the moment, I want to point out that I am asking for concrete examples of what Sanders will do to come through on your claim. I am not wanting to be snarky, but you have given the same list concerning "quality of life" that every single presidential candidate spouts off in their sleep. Not a SINGLE one presents a specific plan as to how they are going to accomplish such great things. There is a vast difference between saying "I am going to fix health care" and "This is how I am going to fix health care, x... y... z." HUGE difference.

Also I get what you are trying to say about our spending on military, but the USA does have obligations to the world, being a superpower and all. We are the spine of NATO. I mean no offense to those reading this who live in Europe, but the days are long gone that England, Spain, or France can muster a military might that will protect Europe, Britain, and Canada. If you have a better plan as to how we can keep our security obligations in those countries (including Japan and South Korea) without retreating from the world, then by all means spell it out. Until then, I submit that you're just repeating a "party line" equivalent to the other's side "we need a stronger military."

Well, we've Changed to not requiring due process of the law to murder American citizens, people roughly of said citizen's height and hair color, and any children who may be in their 70 foot radius with highly lethal electronically hijackable toy RC planes, and we can still Hope a meteor falls on the Senate the next time the President appears there. I wouldn't say it was the most untruthful campaign slogan ever.

The irony of this comment being you already posted those aspects and then bitched out and got scurred.
You're a jackass that probably has no idea what its like to actually live an actual life. Id bet money you make over 130 a year. i can tell you i dont even make 20, and thats by choice. Ive turned down 30k salary, ive turned down 70-100k a year and only a 7 month work period. I dont take these jobs that are still guaranteed to me to this day because i dont want to turn into the people like you. Becoming someone like you is literally my worst fear in life.
