The scam and the con called Bernie Sanders!
“THE SCAM AND THE CON CALLED BERNIE SANDERS!”
By Gary Kaltbaum

Bernie Sanders…Bernie Sanders is not funny. He is not to be applauded. He is not to be called uncle. Bernie Sanders is selling you a scam. He is selling you a call a con. He is selling you a lie. The scam, the con, the lie is that everything is rigged, everything is being stolen from you, that all wealth is being re-distributed to the wealthy and nobody can get ahead because of all this.
The fact is money is not being re- distributed to the wealthy. Most of the wealthy earn their money. It’s called planning! It’s called thinking! It’s called educating! It’s called time! It’s called sweat! It’s called toil! It’s called risk taking! It’s called failure! It’s called success! It’s called long days and long nights! It’s called growing! It’s called hiring! It’s called creating jobs! It’s called creating wealth. Bernie Sanders knows nothing of this because Bernie Sanders has never created $1 of wealth. Bernie Sanders has never created one job. Bernie Sanders has been living off the largesse of the taxpayer since the day he started whining, complaining and pissing all over those who have created all the wealth and jobs.
It’s the person who came up with the restaurant concept named Chipotle and started with one and turned it into over 1800 restaurants creating billions of wealth and thousands of jobs. It is Mark Zuckerberg who had an idea to get dates in college which started Facebook, creating billions of wealth and thousands of jobs. It’s Bernie Marcus and Arthur Blank who thought there was a better way to sell home improvement goods and started Home Depot, creating billions of wealth and thousands of jobs. It’s Michael Dell who started selling computers in a garage and then created billions of wealth and thousands of jobs. It’s Charles Schwab who saw prices could get lower on Wall Street and created billions of wealth and thousands of jobs. It’s Bill Gates…WELL, WE CAN GO ON AND ON! None of these people had anything re-distributed to them. THEY EARNED EVERY DIME! Bernie Sanders does not want you to know any of this.
Bernie Sanders could not tell you any of this because he will never be able to sell his lie. He cannot ever mention these people because it does not fit his template. The amazing part of all this is that the only re-distribution that is really going on is not to the wealthy but from the wealthy to the Bernie Sanders-types as government spending has doubled since Bill Clinton’s last budget. Yes…doubled. And for what? What are we getting for the money? Yet Bernie Sanders says it isn’t enough. It isn’t enough that our government cannot even balance their budget even though they will take in over $3 trillion of our money this year.
And how about Wall Street? According to Bernie, it is the land of evil, land of devils, land of crooks who are out to just rip you off. Well…when Bernie Sanders was born, the Dow was at 127. Yes…127! Wall Street and the markets have created trillions of wealth and millions of jobs. Wall Street has turned secretaries into millionaires…millionaires into billionaires and so on. Wall Street and the markets have spawned companies like Microsoft, Amgen, Facebook and all the amazing companies that have improved our lives through modern technology, through new medicines and great inventions. HOW TERRIBLE!
So memo to Bernie and more important to those young people that think he is the end-all, be-all:
Just wait to see what happens if Bernie Sanders ends up running this country. Try working your tail off. Try to become wealthy. Try to be a success. We know you want to. All of us want to be bigger, better, wealthier, healthier. At every step along the way, Bernie will be there. When you work your ass off for a few years to get the promotion, the raise or whether you grow your own company, watch what happens when you get that first big paycheck. It will not be there. The $10,000 check will be $4,000. The $20,000 paycheck will be $6,000. Try being a gargantuan success and get a $100,000 check…something you should be applauded for. Bernie will want to take $90,000 of that $100,000. Don’t believe us. Just check out any number of videos of where Bernie wants to go with your money…because you did not earn it. It was re-distributed to you.
Bernie Sanders will not harm the already wealthy. Well…maybe he will. What he will do is prevent all the millennials from becoming wealthy as he will strip away all incentive to be bigger, be better, be wealthier…because Bernie Sanders believes in one thing…his power and not yours. Millennials do not know it yet but it is them who Bernie Sanders will affect most negatively. To the millennials..Bernie Sanders is your worst enemy!
When socialism overtakes capitalism, you get Venezuela. When capitalism is gone, you get Cuba. Go vote for Bernie now!
Good commentary Gary. It’s a shame that it couldn’t be printed and distributed as a flyer to all the I-phone 6 Bernie Sander’s audience minions. Wake Up Children!!
That’s the funniest thing I heard all day. Your crazy if you don’t think all the candidates aren’t bought and paid by Wall Street. Hell even Obama has been bought. Im sure he’ll receive a nice Wall Street Retirement Package for promoting and signing TPP. How do you explain wealth inequality of today? How do you explain back in the 1970s a person could work 135 hours a semester to pay for there college classes. Now a kid has to work 1250 hours to pay for a semester of classes. Single payer health care would help 99% of Americans. Im paying over $1188 a month for health insurance for my family with a $1500 family deductible through my employer. Im certain the government could do it better. Medicare receives huge discounts for there members which leaves them with small payments of 20% after Medicare Pays. Having a single payer health care would take the profit out of it for the medical providers and the health insurance companies. People are fed up with the candidates and big $ telling us who we should be voting for. Were not talking full on Socialism! Your trying to scare everyone with your rubbish! Who’s your all star Candidate?
So, Steve…you think doctors should invest time (as much as 12 years) as well as money, in a medical career to give it away to you for whatever a government bureaucrat feels it’s worth? We know about how much that would end up being. Do you not understand that single-payer has been the goal of Obamacare from the get-go? If you think not, you are badly mistaken. He who controls your healthcare, controls everything. Go read the December 30, 2015, Investor’s Business Daily article about how long you would have to wait for health care, and decide if that’s what you really want.
You lost me at, “I’m certain the government could do it better”. The government needs to GET OUT OF BUSINESS and let all businesses take care of running their business. That’s especially true of financial businesses. Consider this possibility – the government inflates cost of a home under the premise of making them “affordable” to more people who cannot afford a home. Did that happen? Yes!
Now consider this possibility – the government inflates the cost of college under the premise of making college “affordable” to more people who cannot afford college. Supply/demand market forces should allow prices to normalize and not be jacked up. Also, the government is currently undercutting the private financial firms who make college loans available. Without the government meddling in education, more private firms would make more profits and they would all pay more taxes.
As for healthcare, “single-payer” is what that lying, witch Hillary pushed for long ago. She still will push for that while the “Affordable Care Act” and subsequent ad-hoc legislation wreaks havoc on America rubs salt in the wound.
I’m not pushing for any all-star candidate, but the whole lot of 535 in Washington, DC is to blame and must either move toward fiscal sanity or keep driving headlong into the debt trap.
Well done Gary! I’d like to see that in a full page ad in USA Today! Keep it up!
Couldn’t agree more Gary.! Why can’t more people see that policies of Sanders/Clinton will only excelerate the decline of the country. Kaltbaum for President!
My opinion is — that his showing in Iowa is an anti-Hillary vote rather than an endorsement of Bernie’s leftist policies!
