They pass massive tax cuts for the richest in one day. They pass massive defense spending bills that profit the military-industrial-complex in one day. But when it comes to the health and education of our citizens it’s like “Oh no no, we can’t possibly spend that much that fast!”

The first two statements aren't true. Yes, votes occurred on one day, but the process takes months (something I'm sure you know). Don't disagree that we need to increase social spending in many areas, but offering distortions don't ultimately help the cause..
And what is your net worth Ms. Williamson? Obtained wealth because of and not in spite of Capitalism. Had we been a socialist economy when Oprah used hard work and her art of talk, she would be opry from the slums. Don't lie to these kids.

Yes ... As you've said before ... we've forgotten that it's ... "We the People" ... that are in charge, and not the Corporations or the Politicians!

It’s because they don’t value human life that highly as soon as you’re out of the womb

Ughhhh, I am so frustrated you're not going to be president. I don't trust any candidate.

A tax cut is just stealing less, so, that's like saying I can't afford a Ferrari because I decided not to commit an armed robbery. As for the massive military spending, agreed, we should make massive cuts there, but that doesn't mean that we should steal more to provide services.

Thank God you cancelled your campaign if you actually think it took one day to pass those other bills. It’s okay. First days in government are tough. Hang in there.

My point exactly! Who is they? Isn’t the Congress/Hiuse of Reps/ Senate you are referring to? I thought so. Change those rhinos and we may have a chance at real change not just empty promises!!!

Thank you for not only endorsing Bernie Sanders, but for bravely speaking out against a corrupt system. Some may have done so for attention, but you come across as sincere and truly caring!

Give this line to Bernie for the next debate
