One of the most prevalent claims about Bernie on this site is that his supporters are "entitled" or "lazy" or that "they just want rich people's money." All of these claims are false and every one of those claims glosses over the real rational and reasoning behind what Bernie says and his supports. Bernie's platform isn't "everybody gets a free car and a brand new Xbox." When Bernie talks about reforming the education system and having the government pay for the cost he's not saying every person that applies to college gets a free ride. Everybody that makes the grades gets a free ride. If you cannot make the grades you're out of school. Just like it works now but the difference is that instead of having a bunch of college drop outs with tons of college debt that benefits nobody and a bunch of qualified people unable to afford the cost of going we have full time students working hard on their eduction. We get students that graduate without debt and that are prepared to get a high quality job. As a society we should be investing in those who have the skills and brainpower to go to school. They shouldn't have to worry about paying the bill of they make the cut. Moving into to health care what's wrong with the current health care system you ask? Well, for one it's a really expensive system. For starters, before Obama care came along there were millions of uninsured people in this country. Now, obviously some of those people might get sick and might need treatment. For example, somebody uninsured has a heart attack. They're rushed to the hospital and oh, the bill is $100,000+!!! Well, this person having a shitty dead end job doesn't have that kind of money and recovering from a heart attack keeps them from working. They cannot pay and the hospital is basically just shit out of luck. So who do they charge to make up for the cost? Well the people who can pay. They bump up the cost of everything for the insurance companies. Thus, the insurance companies have to change more for insurance, the hospitals have to make everything more expensive and the uninsured are shit out of luck and crushed for getting sick. The entire point of having a national health care system like it or not is that everybody is paying into the system and everybody is covered. If you have a heart attack the hospital simply bills the government and the government the and hospital discuss the price. Nobody is uninsured and raising the cost. In fact, everybody would pay less for insurance if we adopted the "free health care plan." Yes, one might say, "but I'm paying for somebody else." Sure you are, but you're also paying with the understanding that if you get cancer you will get treatment. You will not need to sell your house. Who does Bernie Sanders care about? Does Benrie Sanders care about his friends on Wall Street, his friends in large companies, and his cronies, or does Bernie care about the middle class? The reality is that for decades the middle class has been getting less and less while the upper elite grow richer and richer to the point where a hand full of people own the majority of wealth in this country. Be smart. Don't vote for the candidate that is being paid millions of dollars by companies to rig the system in their favor. Vote for the guy that cares about you and this country. Vote for Bernie Sanders
