everything gets more expensive.
the idea of getting a head with increase in income is a fairy tale unless you can control costs and in a free market everything would rise a little higher in costs due to the margin plus 1 -5% for growth policy of inflation would double and leave the labor force actually poorer in the long run but it good simple fix that america can understand and realization of the ramifications of salary=cost increase is just to difficult for america to comprehend..
unless cost controls were adapted
the raise would actual be a set back in dollar worth at the markets.
but its a good pitch and it sells. that what get politicians do to get elected if they actually stated we have to cut services and raise taxes to provide a balanced budget they wouldnt make it throuh the primaries. imho.

To falsely equivocate Trump and Bernie as equally inane candidates is part of the educational problem in this nation. You just showed it yourself. There are significant differences which you choose to gloss over.
No need to insult me. I never insulted you.
Yes, there are significant differences. I'm not an expert on politics, or the economy. I don't even like Trump, and I said that repeatedly in my posts.
I was just saying that bold statements such as $15 minimum wage, free college education, and up to a 90% tax rate on the 1% can be just as bold as the things Donald Trump is saying.
You said it yourself that Bernie's budget is extraordinary. Can't you agree that some people are following both these mainstream candidates without knowing much about either of them except a few catchphrases?
I've watched every Republican debate, and still know pretty much nothing about Donald Trump. His "We're going to be strong and win" is just as repetitive and a main theme as Bernies "No Super PAC Wall Street Interests" theme.

People love Bernie Sanders because he's Santa Claus. You'll get everything for free if you're a good girl and boy and smoke all the pot you want and take 15 years to get your college degree. In the south he'll get destroyed
The politicians have f*cked up so severely that's why we're at where we're at. I like Trump and I hope he wins. The media likes to say if this politician gets this many votes since Jeb dropped out etc. They don't get it... Its over. When Trump wins Nevada that's 3 state wins heading toward SEC Tuesday. Rubio hasn't won a state at all
Like it or not Trump will beat whatever democrat they pick in November.

Giving some "semblance of power" to low and middle class workers.
Funny, that's what Obama said. How'd that work out?
You reference the "educational problem in this nation" while speaking of comparing Trump (a Republican) to Sanders (a Democrat) while taking a thinly veiled shot at the GOP.
Trickle up, or trickle down.
Believe what you will.
At the end of the day, the poor have no chance of ANY government in this country giving them what Bernie would have you believe he will give them.

But I will trust Vegas's odds over media odds and polls.
Full disclosure, I remember during Obama mania that McCain was still favored, and it was almost -160 at one point. I bet someone that McCain would win, not out of support, but based on the line.
Obama won going away, as most people expected.

trump must win a majority in one state before i would say he will win the presidency the fireld narrows and he reamains at 33% is not a goood sign for it splits delegates.
cruz trump ticket was a note worth having but cruz and trump in fighting blew that chance . his only chance is at the convention accepting rubio as his running mate and rubio accepting the vp position. because two senators and former governor will weild the sword of power vs a ex democrat in a lone wolf secnario. 2 beats 1 its just that simple.

and if he screws the pooch in the convention he is out of roads to challenge because he will simply not have enough time to put the signatures on the petions to have his name on the ballot come november. as an independent. he needs kasich to throw his support or rubio his support to give him the number to move to gop nominee.

Actually everything you believe he's giving for 'free' are fixtures in very successful industrialized nations. And before you harp on their financial problems, look at ours WITHOUT those massive benefits.

I know the movie well. Not exactly a complicated movie or scene for that matter.
I guess you're saying that in both instances "nobody thought" something was going to happen. Then you go on about how Denzel got the $ by shooting Scott Glenn, and if you follow the $ ( I guess in reference to trump) it doesn't lie...
Either way I'm pretty sure you don't know what the hell you're talking about.
Go Trump

I saw that article, but I would rather go by a sportsbook (5 dimes) that's actually taking wagers on the election, instead of a guy who is making up lines "for entertainment purposes only" because betting on the election in the US is illegal.
Basically the difference between putting your money where your mouth is, and just talking.
Trump is up to -130, Rubio +130, Cruz +1800, Kasich down to +2000, and Carson with +7500.

I love all the republican candidates. Each one brings his own special brand of lunacy to the race, and I pray that one of them wins the general election. I want to see either an environment so poisonous that all the christian conservatives get to watch their children, or even funnier their grandchildren die from the filth. I will even take some jackass republican that will start a dirty bomb war with the Muslim world. Again I will laugh myself sick at the deaths of their precious scions that happen in the retaliations. Go Mr. Red Tie.

All the environmental conscience @ssholes that lack the presence of testicles between their legs should have the future environment last on their minds when our children and grandchildren are paying for all the debt that the Obama Admin costs us.
Mr. Blue Tie has done enough spending money that our future generations will have to foot 
Millenials in this country are the laziest bunch of pu$$ies for the most part. All these high school/college kids are so liberal and soft. These are the same kids who are voting for Bernie or Hillary.
I'd bet anything that 10 times out of 10 that my 18 year old self and friends would kick the ever loving sh!t out of today's graduating class of my alma mater.

I realize this is a very small sample size, but my youngest son, who is 19, and most of his friends are very interested in politics for the 1st time. This interest has been spurred by Trump, and subsequently they are all Trump supporters.
