A Bernie Sanders presidency could potentially bring about the greatest period of reform in America since the New Deal. Here a few things we could see: - Universal healthcare - Tuition-free college - More workers' rights - Reducing carbon emissions and using more renewable energy (Green New Deal) - Increasing taxes on the wealthy and reducing income inequality - Criminal justice reform - Campaign finance reform - Rural revitalization - And more
So long as Mr. Sanders can act as a good communicator and persuade Congress to pass at least most of his proposed reforms, things could improve significantly for the average American.
Nothing is free. You will be paying for it in taxes. Enjoy your 80% tax rate idiot.

Firstly, taxes would be raised most on the wealthy, so the average American wouldn't experience an 80% tax rate. Bernie Sanders appears to want to emulate the so-called "Nordic model" (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nordic_model) that Scandinavian countries use. They are known for having high tax rates, but the highest tax rate (as a percentage of GDP) among those countries is only 54.8% (Norway, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_tax_revenue_to_GDP_ratio).
Additionally, a lot of money that would otherwise be paid for out of pocket would be paid through taxes. Some expenses, such as health care, could even be cheaper for the average American if paid through taxes instead. The U.S., the only country without a universal healthcare system, has the highest per capita healthcare expenses (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_total_health_expenditure_per_capita).

What does America have that Norway doesn't have? I'll give you a hint: It drains the "free" resources we have for the "poor" people.
The arrogance of the Left is what lost the election. I bet she’s smirking now - he statistically would have won the election. Great job! Now we have a right wing resurgence
Charles Hall
Can't just rape and eat babies I agree the Left lost it.
The 1% you drool about don't even pay shit.. You are chasing wannabe "rich" not those at top. 1% of 1% is laughing their asses off making them the only rich left.
Daniel Wright
It'd be hillarious to watch him get cucked every time he takes a podium. Eventually have to keep the blacks in back/parking lot
He has several houses to crawl back to. The rest is just surviving hoping this mans stories about free stuff goes through ...
Matthew Baker
I'm out of the loop here, what's the context of this picture? I see Bernie Sanders in the background with his head down, but that could mean a number of things.
Ethan Ramirez
Two woman took his stand and talked gibberish
He was like " oh okey I will move back here silently "
Dude you would pay double in taxes in a Nordic model if you made only 70k if not more. For what? To send retards to college so they can fuck and not learn anything then become a diversity hire (if that)? I can just buy my own healthcare at this point. Fuck buying it for migrants.
Jordan Powell
Gross is not Net income.
Thomas Brown
From the several posts you've made I've noticed you're from Norway. Do you think that standards of living in Norway are better, equal to, or less than those in the U.S.? If you've never been to the U.S. and/or just don't know enough about it to have an opinion, that's fine too.
Landon Cox
If it was Trump vs Bernie, I would support Bernie. I was for Bernie last time until I thought Trump had a better chance to beat Hillary.
John Edwards
He would also give black males well-deserved reparations and free education, job opportunities.
Colton Walker
yeah just like chinas great leap foward

Bernie has to rob someone pay for his Utopia. If not other countries, then who?
The old kike let some sheboons drive him off his stage. This kind of weakness is unacceptable, especially when we expect him to have the strength to hold the world order together.
Anonymous negresses cucked him. He's unfit.
Xavier Robinson
Lived in both. Got same leftist rats in both. Both countries works, but it has cockroaches selling it bit by bit.

Answer his question. It might explain the slightly better living standard in Norway as well

From your article:
> A study on US Census income data claims that when using the national accounting methodology, U.S. gross median household income was $57,739 in 2010 (table 3).[9]
In 2015, the US median household income spiked 5.2 per cent, reaching $56,000, making it the first annual hike in median household income since the start of the Great Recession.[10]

Norway in 2017: 37,129 US in 2015: 56,000

>false flag happens OY GAY, DIS BASTID BLUMP IS GUNNA SEND YOU TO WAR >trump doesn't declare war because it's a false flag WTF, BLUMP ISN'T DECLARING WAR? DOESN'T HE REMEMBER THE SHOWAH?
>- Universal healthcare healthcare was affordable before the Nigger Messiah ruined it. Now you faggot socialists who fucked up health care want us to pay high taxes for bloated and ridiculously expensive health care? If costs aren't brought down first, then aren't taxpayers going to pay the inflated costs?
>- Tuition-free college college is good for almost nothing but turning out brainwashed leftist faggots, why should I be paying for that? And again, BLOATED cost thanks to dumb niggers who accept inflated student loans without realizing they have to pay them back
>- More workers' rights you mean economy killing regulations. if you dont like your job, quit and find another, the economy is on fire right now
>- Reducing carbon emissions and using more renewable energy (Green New Deal) yeah i want to pay more taxes to the kikes for fake-ass global warming. And green new deal is such a bad joke even democrats cant actually vote for it.
>- Increasing taxes on the wealthy and reducing income inequality ever get a job from someone poorer than you? Didn't think so faggot. Stop coveting their wealth and MAKE YOUR OWN wealth. It's not fucking hard unless you are a low-IQ nigger. Taxes do nothing but kill motivation to work hard, invest, start a business, etc. Regulations do the same shit. Fuck them both.
>- Criminal justice reform stop the white man from shooting criminal niggers!
>- Campaign finance reform any 'reform' is going to be what the special interests want. just like obamacare.
>- Rural revitalization Yeah we all know the Democrats just LOVE rural areas.
>- And more Yeah like broken ass USA-hating SCOTUS judges and social justice kikery like 'closing the non-existant gender gap' and why not make it Pride Year instead of just a full month dedicated to faggots and trannies?
fuck you faggot kike. Grow a pair, real men are conservative.
Thomas Torres
I just realized I may have read that question backwards. I thought he was asking what Norway has that America doesn't, but he was asking the reverse. Reading it this way I'm not even sure if he was arguing with me or not.
To answer the question, it could be a number of things. My guess would be lower tax rates, but I'm not sure what he was referring to.
Nathan Cooper
Yang is so much better than Sanders it’s not even worth my time to consider a Sanders presidency.
Josiah Williams
lol 'Trump drag us into another war' yeah just like north korea and syria and russia and..
this stupid kike endorsed Killary and wont say a bad word about Hussein. How many wars did they start, like 7?
You forgot the hyper inflation and massive unemployment rates.....
Dominic Lopez
Nope, none of that's happening, that would require a spine and integrity. We might get to see an American president surrender to a country that we aren't at war with on live tv though.
Carson Price
Kill yourself for believing any of the retarded shit you just said, faggot. Nobody would get less of those things done than that sweaty old hunchbacked kike.
>- And more like higher taxes for the middle class. The government already takes enough of my goddamn paycheck. *sip*
Tyler Kelly
Yeah, U.S. median income increased in 2015, what exactly is your argument?
The figure you cited for Norway was median equivalent adult income, whereas the figure you cited for the U.S. appears to be gross household income. Median equivalent adult income includes things like taxes and transfers, gross household income does not. The same chart you got your Norway figure from gives $34,514 for the United States, which is lower.
Brandon Nguyen
He's a beaten dog.
Andrew Turner
Bernie got cucked by those fat BLM niggers, what a fucking pussy. He’s the kind of kike that’d suck a nigger’s dick in a back alley to avoid being called racist.
I like Yang too, especially because of how well he articulates his ideas and provides good sources to back them up. However, there are a couple of reasons I'm leaning more towards Sanders. Firstly, he looks to have a better shot of winning the Democratic primaries. He hasn't been in first in recent polls, but unlike Yang, he's consistently come in 2nd or 3rd place. Secondly, Sanders, unlike Yang, has experience in an elected political office. I suspect that this experience would make him less naive, better understand political obstacles, and make him a better negotiator.
Isaiah Miller
Where will the money come from to fund all of this? Even the richest 1% in the nation don't have enough money to make these ideas work long term.

>Firstly, taxes would be raised most on the wealthy Or you know, they would just move to other countries with less taxes, and take their money/assets with them in he process. Have fun taxing the rich when there's none left.
Aight, time for me to go bed. Have fun discussing/arguing/ignoring the thread, whatever.
Brayden Taylor
OP has never heard the Gerard Depardieu leaves France due to taxes story. He still thinks you can just levy new taxes on the rich and corporations without congressional approval and they’ll pay up in full without a problem. It takes the mid of a child to believe these things, I’m guessing OP is a 17 year old sweet summer child.
Norway pays more than half their income in taxes compared to ~25% for the US so the US is objectively better. Put another way, a Norwegian who started work on January 1st would give all his income to the government until mid July. Lol fuck that.
Lucas Peterson
>Bernie goes to the podium to make his inaugural speech. >Two fat sheboons waddle up to the stage as he begins to speak. >They yank the microphone from his hands and begin talking down to the audience in heavy ebonics in support of Black Lives Matter. >Bernie stands there droopy, looking down at the ground in defeat.
Ladies and gentlemen, the president of the United States!
>Universal healthcare paid for through taxes and will wind up like our public school system. >Tuition-free college paid for through taxes and will wind up like our public school system. >More workers' rights even though we're a society run off individual rights and acknowledge that group rights (read PRIVILEGES) are antithetical >"Reducing carbon emissions" means government controls all forms of your energy distribution. >Increasing taxes on the wealthy then when they leave the not wealthy >Rural revitalization is antithetical to "worker's rights" most of these jobs require passion and overtime. Also antithetical to the carbon emission plans
So Venezuela. You want it to be Venezuela. You say it's not venezuela but you want Venezuela. Everything here describe, Cuba, Venezuela, and the promises given to pre-Lenin Russia. That sounds absolutely awful. Neck yourself user.
In reality, you'd get Trump 2. Every radical idea would be blocked, foreign policy would go ahead as the deep state wants it to and you'd get some center left bullshit which would be more of the same.
He says all this crazy shit because people donate to him which funds his lifestyle and he knows he has no chance of ever getting elected.
Josiah Davis
America cannot go bankrupt because it is is largely its own creditor / foreign investors would bail out America very quickly or the reserve would just have to super turbo hyperinflate the dollar.
>HDI Norway doesn’t have blacks that turn their neighborhoods into third world countries. This is to be expected. >Gini Really don’t care that some people have more money than others. >Income Assuming your stats are true, Americans net more income because they’re not giving the majority of it back to the government in taxes. >Life expectancy Again, Norway doesn’t have blacks who kill each other and die from heart attacks from weighing 250 lbs so this is expected.
None of Norway’s very marginal benefits you listed are worth giving 54% of my income to the government for the rest of my life.
