It's interesting that Sanders has cited two past republican presidents for his progressive policy positions: Teddy for breaking up banks and Eisenhower for increasing taxes on the wealthy.

These were republicans before 1964, you should probably look at what happened around that time

how much legs is the whole "I take donations from the banks because of 9/11!!!" thing gonna have?

You know a good first step would be to maybe, just maybe make it so that poorer districts don't get hosed over because all the property taxes get paid in the wealthier areas and the money stays there. For fucks sake there are realistic steps that can be made without going all "class struggle, full communism, etc etc" which is just a bunch of empty rhetoric anyway.

Have you considered that class discrimination is the reason why funding is tied to property values in the first place


Nooooooopppppppeeee just like every other liberal you hate the symptoms, but you sure do love the disease!

See this? Do this everywhere, instead of just Vermont and New Jersey.

So what's your plan to have democratically controlled state legislatures in all 50 states to implement a plan like this nationally

Wouldn't San Antonio Independent School District Vs. Rodriguez need to be overturned for a ruling based on the 14th amendment be found? Doesn't seem particularly likely.

To see a politician in touch with the people they want to represent, to me, is good.

But this debate didn't take place in front of wall street so I'm not sure this statement is correct wrt Hillary Clinton

Yes that is true, but it doesn't have much bearing to what you said
