Actually, he made a million in 2016. He's a 1 percenter.

Ah, he wrote a book. So he's a one percenter for the last one of his 76 years.

Only in this crowd is that thrown around as something he should be ashamed of.

Edit: whoops- from the article you linked to;
"Keep in mind that these numbers just represent the threshold — the average income of the top one percent nationwide is $1.15 million."

So maybe not, even with a million dollar income...

LMFAO

You obviously haven't even the first clue what constitutes the one percent.

Why don't you Google it and come back when you've grown up enough to actually sound like you know WTF you're talking about?

Damn are you really showing how stupid, lonely and broke you are ? Why would I need to Google the amount needed to become in the top 1 percent. We as grown ass men with business about themselves should know.
Let me confirm my suspicions...are you saying Bernard Sanders is currently not in the top one percent on a national basis.
Also since you mentioned your love for the Google, have you ever tried Googling " websites for desperate lonely men who enjoy camping and wearing the pants in relationships ".

keep showing how dumb you are for Bernie. He lives in Vermont he is in the top one percent in his state and in the nation. I'm not mad at him for it, but I realize he is. Stop walking around with blue balls, blind and in denial. No one is talking about WHEN he became a one percenter, only the fact that he is.
Only person who seems ashamed of Bernie's worth are the suckers who deny it. are you that sucker ??

Please don't leave out he is a career politician.
Who has accomplished nothing in his decades on the public payroll.

Yes, it’s your vote. You can do with it what you like, based on what criteria you choose. If you think Trump is no worse than Clinton, then you should feel no obligation to vote for Clinton.

But don’t pretend your actions don’t have consequences. To willfully ignore the practical implications of your vote, and blame the candidate for the choice that you make, is an abdication of your responsibility as a voter.

Anyone who feels Trump is no worst than Hillary is an idiot.

Does anyone really, in their right mind think that Hillary, HRH, and anointed one is going to let Trump take this from her?

This bitch is nasty behind the scenes not to mention how she stole the primary from Bernie her 'friend' of 25 years..

Nothing is going to stop Clinton, nothing.

And that's one thing you can take to the bank.

I don't know what the fuck you are whoopsing about, like you caught me at something. He lives in Vermont, where it takes $299 grand to qualify as a 1%. A million dollars > $299 grand. Which means you were totally fucking wrong, and to invested in your imagined rollitup cred to admit it.

Double whoops to you bro!



Padwan edit; Never expressed an opinion on 1%. Tydick clearly implied that membership was bad until he found out Bernie was a member.

There's nothing wrong with being a member of the 1%

That's a strawman argument

Do you think I care that top athletes and movie stars make millions of dollars? I couldn't care less. Their abilities earned them whatever the market deems they're worth. That's fine, that's how I think it should be

But the fact that the top 25 hedge fund managers make more than all the kindergarten teachers in America combined is troubling to say the least. The fact that more than half of the country lives paycheck to paycheck and couldn't afford an emergency if something came up is embarrassing

I care that our political system is primarily influenced by members of the 1%, instead of the 330,000,000+ American constituents and that the voice of the average American largely doesn't matter

It's much easier to heckle than to think.

This may be the downfall of our country. The ash heap of history is waiting for us.
