I know it's cool to hate on everything that's popular, but Bernie Sanders is a good candidate. Even if he is un-electable, a vote for him is a vote of non-confidence in the two-party system, as long as you don't vote for him after the primary instead of a lesser-of-two-evils candidate who can actually win.

The problem with labor unions, minimum wage, etc, is that they play on people's beliefs on how things should be, so people tend to neglect to look at it in a positive way (if this happens, then this.) The fact is people respond to incentives,both negative and positive. Higher taxes /costs here mean people will look for a cheaper way to do it.

Labor unions=!minimum wage laws in the strictest sense, but it kinda is the same thing. Isn't weird how labor unions are some of the strongest supporters of minimum wage hikes?

In terms of lax tax enforcement, not really sure how you'd enforce American laws in other countries,unless you're just adding tax on to prices of goods, but that's really just the American consumer paying.

So you're saying that people should just be happy with the table scraps they're receiving as compensation for working 40 or more hours a week while corporations reap record breaking profits?

Well that's conveniently short-sighted when you look at it through capitalistic eyes. Too bad that's probably the worst view to have.

I like how conservatives are like, 'no trust me it's a long game, I know we've been in financial ruin it for the last 30 years but trust me it's the best system and it will work if you just keep letting it do exactly what it is already doing without bothering it at all'

It's Reaganomics 101. They keep getting richer, and the rest of us keep getting poorer.
