Bernie needs to practice a better comeback to when the right calls him rich. Yeah, Bernie is richer than probably all of us, but his net worth is about a quarter percent of a billionaire, never mind a multi-billionaire. For every hundred bucks a billionaire has, Bernie has 25 cents.

You have THREE HOUSES! Man, shut the gently caress up.

Bernie’s situation is what the middle class should be capable of in terms of financial power when they reach retirement age. Three “houses” and a hefty savings by the time you reach your 70s sounds about normal for someone who was given the opportunity to save over decades with a living wage.

That opportunity does not exist for 80-90% of Americans, even though that was the relative norm for the (white) middle class mid-century. Instead, Bloomberg and Butt just hammered on “hurrrr three houses” like it was some fat cat hypocritical stockpile.
