I saw some salaried staffers may have ended up getting less if they worked too many hours per week but idk if saying "Bernie is refusing to pay them $15 per hour" is accurate..They also are union and get 100% free healthcare.

So everybody doesn’t really mean everybody when the minimum salary is applied by Bernie? And unions don’t set minimum wage. They negotiate for more than the base.

Idk I heard there was initially a problem but then he and his staffers union agreed on $42k salary for up to 50 hrs per week.. fake news?

Medicare for all, is sound policy that will lower cost for the average person. Premiums, deductibles, copays and all private taxes or so called fees, would be completely gone and be replaced with a lower total replacement fee to government, a substantial part being paid for by people with an immense amount of wealth. Thus most americans would pay substantially less for their medical care. So yeah, not costing people "extra", rater less.

Also, Obamacare or Romneycare was a vast improvement to many peoples healthcare, but it was severely lacking on many fronts, for one it did not provide a public option.

Rationed Heath Care. After age 70 you may as well lay down & die.

So just to be clear, are you claiming that under his proposals, the minimum wage after taxes would be static or lower?

Your take home (which is all that matters) will be lower.

OK. I don't think that's true at all. Check your math with Sanders' tax plan.

Real tax $ ALWAYS comes from the middle class.

So, your argument is: ignore the proposed tax structure, and go with what you assume would happen based on the experiences we've had with entirely different administrations?

Do you see what I'm getting at? You're telling us to vote based on assumptions, not based on what people are actually saying.

What he’s actually saying doesn’t add up. He wants to be a Dem, but he’s Independent. He sold out last time to Clinton & got a lot of booty. Even endorsed her. This is another hijack job for buy off cash. What he’s actually saying is not even important to him. He’s another tool.

It does add up - you just don't want to do the math.
