So DC, you stoop so low as to use this as a smear on Bernie when it's obvious he is just making a point using a made up example with Gates? smh
If Bernie could take $100 billion of Gates money... he would.
The more ironic part of that entire tweet is this...
Say Bill Gates was actually taxed $100 billion.
We could end homelessness and provide safe drinking water to everyone in this country.
Bill would still be a multibillionaire.
The federal government takes in TRILLIONS of dollars a year and they have for a long time and they haven't come close to ending homelessness or providing safe drinking water to some parts of the country.. and Bernie is going to solve it all with just this $100 billion..
The federal government has taken in over $20 trillion in the 5 years since the Flint, MI crisis happened under Obama, the state of MI has taken in significant money as well... still not completely fixed. Better, but not fixed.
Bernie will NEVER have enough of our money... ever.
