Bernie Sanders
Related: About this forumThe first of my multi-millionaire friends just switched to Bernie!
I have a handful of friends who are multi-millionaires. Most are in the film industry, but this one is a woman who owns a posh organic cosmetics company. She was on the Hillary bandwagon until yesterday, when she posted "Ok, I've listened to Bernie for a while now and I agree with everything he's said. He seems genuine too. I was ready for Hillary, but now I'm officially feeling the Bern!"
Keep sharing those videos and articles. Keep the message positive, and even some of the one percenters will come around! Now on to a friend who works in the financial district in NYC and is still on the fence....(I think i'm one of the poorest people she knows, lol)!

I also turned a "I love Bernie, but don't want another McGovern scenario." Then she turned everyone she works with. LOVE IT!

I always tell people that if they don't like Bernie, then they don't KNOW Bernie! That was exactly the case for the cosmetic's company owner; once she really listened to him, she got it!

(13,133 posts)Some are infested with the idea that the angry hoards want everything that they have and will stop for nothing to get it.
The real problem is hoarding and taking finished production out of the loop. The only alternative other them hoarders giving it up to keep the flow, is governments forcing them to give it up with taxes.
That's not a structure problem, that's an education problem
