Raygun kicked off the destruction of the middle class. Should have told him to shove his trickle down voodoo up his ass.
BLUEXITA Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red
Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
Lets face it, guys: Were done.
It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.
This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

Again, you are not listening to Bernie, all the "ands, if's, and buts" you are coming up with he intends to do away with, you are viewing it thru 20th Century glasses, and the increased tax would fall on the upper levels of income and the subsides would be gone, there is a reason Wall Street definately want to see Bernie disappear
The entire article is worth reading. Reagan sucked!How Reaganomics Killed America’s Middle Class
There's nothing "normal" about having a middle class. Having a middle class is a choice that a society has to make, and it's a choice we need to make again in this generation, if we want to stop the destruction of the remnants of the last generation's middle class.
Despite what you might read in the Wall Street Journal or see on Fox News, capitalism is not an economic system that produces a middle class. In fact, if left to its own devices, capitalism tends towards vast levels of inequality and monopoly. The natural and most stable state of capitalism actually looks a lot like the Victorian England depicted in Charles Dickens' novels.
At the top there is a very small class of superrich. Below them, there is a slightly larger, but still very small, "middle" class of professionals and mercantilists - doctor, lawyers, shop-owners - who help keep things running for the superrich and supply the working poor with their needs. And at the very bottom there is the great mass of people - typically over 90 percent of the population - who make up the working poor. They have no wealth - in fact they're typically in debt most of their lives - and can barely survive on what little money they make.
So, for average working people, there is no such thing as a middle class in "normal" capitalism. Wealth accumulates at the very top among the elites, not among everyday working people. Inequality is the default option.

ROFL..you can tell me what Bernie WANTS, but I'm telling you what Congress WILL DO.
It doesn't matter this is a new century. when the rich get hit with higher taxes, the lobby for lower taxes thru exemptions, etc.
Politicians listen to the rich, because they have the clout. you can't re-invent that relationship.
It would take a tax code without exemptions, and that's not gonna happen

Reagan, in fact, warned us against the Trumps of the world.
Russian trolls and their supporters go on Ignore, automatically: no second chance.
