An excerpt from a video I took at Bernie's Providence speech

[SheenaR]

"Why is it in America we have more income and wealth inequality than any other country. Why is it in America, who decided that the middle class should continue to shrink and almost all new income go directly to the top 1%? Who decided that in America we're the only major country not to have paid family and medical leave or health care for all? Who decided that 40% of the children in Providence, RI should live in poverty? Who decided that our infrastructure should crumble? Who decided that women should make $0.79 on the dollar compared to men. Who decided these things? And now the American people are saying all that and the institutional racism that exists, that is not what this country is supposed to be about."

I posted this as part of a comment responding to the old free stuff/entitlement argument. Thought it could make a good OP also

It was a powerful moment. Picture our Bernie raising his voice everytime he shouted "WHO DECIDED?"
