    I have one friend that is a Bernie supporter, and all for his socialist programs. It's ironic, because he is also upper middle class, and comes from money, but has absolutely no clue just how much all this socialist bullshit is going to take out of his pocket. He makes in the mid six figures, has lots of toys (cars, an rv, a boat), and I don't think he has any idea what an effective tax rate like the Nordic socialist paradises he's constantly touting (80+%) would do to his lifestyle. I like pissing him off by destroying his arguments with statistics provided by his beloved government.
    Light a fire for a man, and he'll be warm for a day, light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life...

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

    Funny how someone that smart who can make that kind of $$$ can also be so damn ignorant. Well...heaven forbid we end up with some wackjob like Bernie in office and he watches his salary get pillaged by a system he initially supported. Then you and I can crack open a beer, smile and say, "I told you so."
    The character of a man can be judged by how he treats those who can do nothing for him

    Well, we won't have enough money to buy beer. But we can still say "I told ya so"
