Rich guy complains he's not rich enough

[Stradling]

I feel like this needs posted a second time.

Take this one in you guys.

Excellent post?

[Spirit]

Why are you so angry?

 

 

Angry?  I would go so far as to use the word "butthurt!" 

[Spirit]

No, we are trying to keep our donations at 4% and are already close to the max this year. 

 

 

I think I'm over.  I wonder if I can go back to some of the charities and ask for a refund? 

I tell them Bernie sent me.

I just like that you guys pretend to know where every cent he has goes because of his tax return.

[Make Angels Great Again]

It's such an impressive reach.

[Spirit]

At this point, I'll just assume his money is all invested in BofA and JPM Chase stocks.  

[Adam]

All of his money comes from taxpayers. Haha

I'm guessing Panama but that never would have shown up on his tax return.

I could give a shit how much he gives to charity.  Trump is a douchebag that has made it clear he's in it (life) for himself and for making money.  I wouldn't be surprised if he donated zero to charity.  But he doesn't base his campaign on railing against the rich and wanting to help the poor and middle class.  If that's what your campaign is about, and you're in the Top 5% of Earners, it would be good to see you putting your money where your mouth is.  But, Bernie is a rich dude and doesn't put his money where his mouth is.  Fine by me.  He's just another say one thing and do another politician.  Is anyone really surprised by this?

Raise your hand if your net worth is more than Bernie's....

[Tank]

Bullshit. The man is all about walking his talk. Again, he contributes in ways other than money donations - he has dedicated his entire life to fighting for people with less than he has.

 

Don't place your values on him, if that is the only way you think someone can contribute. It isn't. There are teachers, nurses, counselors, police officers and tons of other folks who don't donate a dime but contribute to society in ways that can't be quantified monetarily.

His talk is raising taxes to help the poor, something he is unwilling to reach into his very own pocket to do. That's hypocrisy of the worst kind.

You've twisted around so much defending this guy that you look like Greg Louganis.

Maybe $8 a week is how much ol' Bernie has been donating.

Nah you can write it off as a gift, and the best part is, you get it all back...PLUS interest! I just agree to pay it all back at an interest rate of 0.00002% over the course of 19 years.

 

It's a win/win situation, really.

So are you saying he committed tax crimes by hiding finances?

To be fair, Bernie is so old that if he did the ice bucket challenge he probably would have died from shock

So what you really want us to know is that you love his theories but don't care one bit about his practice. I'm guessing "do as I say, not as I do" really resonates with you.

In his defense he did the original ice bucket challenge, the Ice Age

I guess we all need to be open to the possibility that he has a gambling, hooker and/or cocaine addiction.

You can think that if you want, I'm just gonna laugh at you for it.

Does every single cent you spend throughout the year get broken down on your tax return?

[Make Angels Great Again]

I'll just leave this here.

Bernie brings grit to Washington. 

 

He's not going to put up all star numbers, and he'll never win an MVP, but he gives it 110% every day and has one of the best squats on the hill. 

[nate]

What a relief that Robert Reich thinks Bernie did a good job...

[Tank]

I'll just leave this here.

 

SLAAAAAAAM DUNK!!

I've now completely changed my mind. Thanks.

I'm just glad no one is arguing that they aren't doing this.

At least you all recognize that.

[Blarg]

I'm glad you think your posts are worthy enough to quote yourself. You should add a like to them as well.

[Make Angels Great Again]

Oh I just wanted to emphasize the point you guys conveniently ignore.

Nothing more.
