The problem is that most Americans aren't aware of what is going on.

5. But think of the jobs that will be lost!

I suppose that the same excuse for Heritage Care can be used for #Justice4Sale.

6. I can't figure out how anyone could vote for someone other than Bernie.

7. Private Prisons are disgusting. A throwback to the glory days of feudalism...

feu·dal·ism
ˈfyo͞odlˌizəm/
noun

The dominant social system in medieval Europe, in which the nobility held lands from the Crown in exchange for military service, and vassals were in turn tenants of the nobles, while the peasants (villeins or serfs) were obliged to live on their lord's land and give him homage, labor, and a share of the produce, notionally in exchange for military protection.

8. That can't be. Bernie doesn't care about minorities.

He has a huge problem with minority voters.
