Now this whole business about a indiscriminate sur-tax on rich people ( which has absolutely no chance of being legislated) is just a gimmick to save his own political capital. It's of a purely sentimental character- just the sort of thing that appeals to Vermonters- a "kite" that'll never even get off the ground. There are proposals before Congress that WOULD help Main St. Representative Raœl Grijalva has proposed a bill, the Saving Family Homes Act, which would allow many facing foreclosure homeowners to stay in their homes. It requires no taxpayer dollars and no new government bureaucracy, and it can begin to protect homeowners as soon as the bill is approved by Congress. Mr. Sanders could adress the problem of tax loopholes , shelters, deferments, credits which have the effect of reducing returns from the highest corporate tax rates in the world to the lowest. Even in the case of the Captive Insurance Industry- for which Vermont is the world's second largest tax haven-second only to the Cayman Islands, when the Treasury and IRS proposed laws to increase the transparency of these operations, Bernie loudly protested saying they were completely unnecssary though it was later shown that the rules would have at least prevented one of their executives from embezzling millions of dollars to build a luxury home. Of course the Senator opposes the war in Iraq but he agrees with the war in Afghanistan. What's the difference? His position of the Israeli-Palestinian Issue has never been clearly articulated or fair. Unfortunately, as Senator Sanders states quite plainly, he supports the bail-out.

Also, to the dude posting above, claiming he never took out a loan and 'makes a good living,' etc. Post again in three or four months pal, after your credit cards don't work anymore and things look shaky for your job or business to continue and gas slips up above $10 per gallon if and when its available in your area and you need to pass through a military roadblock to get to the mall. It's comin' down the pike, bubbah! Why doesn’t that rightwing kook call him “Senator” Sanders?

Sanders knows how to make a point, I must point out that the phrase "Socialism for the rich, Free Enterprise for the poor" is lifted directly from an essay (Points Of Rebellion) by U.S. Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas. The credit for that phrase goes directly to Justice Douglas. While Sen.
