Bernie Sanders's plan to Venezuelify America
By Monica Showalter
As Joe Biden hides in his basement, Bernie Sanders has been busy, beavering away on a plan to impoverish the entire U.S.
According to Fox News:
Sen. Bernie Sanders, D-Vt., said that the U.S. will tax “billionaires’ outrageous pandemic wealth†incurred between the months of March and August – a period when 50 million Americans applied for jobless aid.
“We are going to tax Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and the other billionaires' outrageous pandemic wealth accumulation so we can provide health care to all our people,†Sanders said in a tweet Saturday.
Sanders co-sponsored the Make Billionaires Pay Act that impose a one-time 60 percent “windfall†tax on $731 billion accumulated by 467 billionaires, over the six month period.
"At a time of enormous economic pain and suffering, we have a fundamental choice to make,†Sanders said in a statement Thursday.
“We can continue to allow the very rich to get much richer while everyone else gets poorer and poorer. Or we can tax the winnings a handful of billionaires made during the pandemic to improve the health and well-being of tens of millions of Americans,†Sanders said.
