    I could see if he was saying "all millionaires but me must pay more," but that's not the case.
    he wants to force others. he could pay more all by his lonesome, if he chose.

    Lefties are quick to say I'd pay more in taxes if it meant someone that didn't have (fill in the blank) would have it. What's stopping them from doing it personally. Tells me they really don't want to help others just claim that they do.

    Consistent would mean he and those that believe healthcare is a right personally pay for the coverage he claims those currently without it should have. I he truly care, why does he have to be told?
    If Bernie donated all of the money he has to charity, it wouldn't cover a quarter of the Americans who need healthcare. We need a government program to achieve something like that. The fact that Bernie is fighting for a policy that will cost him more money shows that he truly believes and cares about healthcare being a human right.

    it's virtue signalling over actual virtue.

    If Bernie can't do on his own what he demands the rest of us be forced to do, he shouldn't be demanding it.
    It doesn't matter that it would cost him more. He supports it. It matters that he would force the rest of us to pay more.

    Bernie has the same mindset as the freeloading parents that want free college for their kids and expect someone else to be taxed to pay for it. If their kids aren't a good enough investment for them, they're not a good investment for me.

    Paying more all by his lonesome won't provide healthcare for all Americans.

    Because it can't be done without taxes involved. Like I said, if Bernie donated all of his money to charity, it wouldn't be nearly enough to pay for healthcare for all Americans.

    By that logic, we shouldn't have any tax-funded public services.

    Then it shouldn't be done. Period.

    Bernie's not the only one saying the same thing. If everyone that does donating all of their money to charity still wouldn't pay, tough shit. Let those refusing to do for themselves go without. They aren't owed something the rest of us are forced to pay for because they refuse to provide it themselves.
