Well, here's some news:
According to Jeff Weaver, 2016 campaign manager for Bernie Sanders, the Vermont senator "is considering another run for the presidency." The silver lining of that: it's a potential "teaching moment." The entirety of Bernie's political philosophy, if we can call it that, is: "We want X; therefore, the state should violently distribute X." And if you oppose this juvenile ideology, you "hate the poor." Even though every last thing Bernie favors would make the poor less employable and give them fewer options. I actually put together a full-length refutation of Bernieism, a book called Bernie Sanders Is Wrong. Here's the table of contents: PART I: Should the U.S. Model Itself After Scandinavia? Chapter 1 No, Sweden Is Not a Model to Emulate Chapter 2 The Truth About Denmark, the “World’s Happiest Country” PART II: Should the Government Spend Money on Alternative Energy? Chapter 3 Wind and Solar Power? Don’t Make Me Laugh Chapter 4 The Moral Case for Fossil Fuels PART III: Is a $15 Minimum Wage a Good Idea? Chapter 5 High Minimum Wages Hurt the Vulnerable the Most Chapter 6 Robert Reich Is Just as Wrong as Bernie Sanders PART IV: Would More Government Intervention Improve the Economy? Chapter 7 Is “Capitalism” the Problem with American Health Care? Chapter 8 Should Employers Be Required to Offer More Fringe Benefits? Chapter 9 Is There a Gender Pay Gap We Need to Close? Chapter 10 Is “Inequality” an Important Problem? Chapter 11 Does Free Trade Harm American Workers? Chapter 12 What’s Wrong with the Overall Sanders Approach? It's free.
