Bernie Sanders Meets Economic Reality

July 22, 2019

Imagine if you will, a socialist utopia where all workers make $15 per hour. That’s about $31,200 per year for a 40-hour work week. Doesn’t sound much like a utopia, and when you complain that you are working many more hours beyond that 40 — that you don’t get paid for — the response from your employer is to cut your hours to ensure you get $15 per hour. As the saying goes, that’s not a good way to run a railroad, and definitely no way to run a political campaign, where many hours are needed to reach the masses.

We’ll talk about the mess that the Bernie Sanders campaign has gotten into in this episode of Analysis Behind the News, where we provide the perspective that you can use to save American liberty and independence.
