Under Sanders, income and jobs would soar, economist says
[quote]Median income would soar by more than $22,000. Nearly 26 million jobs would be created. The unemployment rate would fall to 3.8%.
Those are just a few of the things that would happen if Bernie Sanders became president and his ambitious economic program were put into effect, according to an analysis given exclusively to CNNMoney. The first comprehensive look at the impact of all of Sanders' spending and tax proposals on the economy was done by Gerald Friedman, a University of Massachusetts Amherst economics professor.
Friedman found that if Sanders became president -- and was able to push his plan through Congress -- median household income would be $82,200 by 2026, far higher than the $59,300 projected by the Congressional Budget Office.
In addition, poverty would plummet to a record low 6%, as opposed to the CBO's forecast of 13.9%. The U.S. economy would grow by 5.3% per year, instead of 2.1%, and the nation's $1.3 trillion deficit would turn into a large surplus by Sanders' second term.[/quote]
Hmm, doesn't quite seem to fit with the criticism of Sanders' plans and how it will be the downfall of the US as we know it...

I think for most of you it's just for memes and for EBIN reddit.But there are a few of you that seem like die hard true believers.Why? Seriously?Why?I get that he's a millionaire antiwhite racist jew and all that, but what has he done for your country? What will he do for your country?How?I'm really wondering, after having watched almost every rally since the one in September, what the heck is he even trying to say? He never offers any specifics about anything at all.He never laid out the Iowa tax plan...Sure, he put some dumb one page infographics with no source at all on his website about taxes, veterans, and muh free college and dude weed lmao...Is there one serious legislative proposal whatsoever?Is there a specific plan of action with respect to possible executive orders? What is he going to do if elected?Not even The Sanders knows.That's disturbing to be quite honest with you family. Bernie Sanders is full of lies.You know it, I know it, and everyone else who has more than 1 million dollars knows it.We really need to focus on electing a true liberal leader with some electability.Donald Trump fits the bill perfectly, he's brash like Mad Max, he's a NY/NJ area native who also loves all of the rest of the United States.The difference between Bernie Sanders and Trump is this: Trump literally knows what he is doing.Clearly, Mad Max should be getting behind this guy, Donald Trump, for president. I don't understand why it's not happening.Is it because Mad Max racist or something?He's obviously the best president than Cruz, Rubio, and Hillary.
