Sanders economics - free college, free health care... are workable
But not minimum wage increase to $15
This would mean inflation by 20%
Your $1 coffee would cost $1.25 minimum
In previous post I suggested SC will write history is because
it is the least developed state among those on the East Coast
based on having driven on the I-95
And likely to fall for Sanders Economics
--xx
Scenario 2:
On the other hand, Steyers, Warren or some other dark horse during debate
And Sanders comes second
--xx
In all these scenarios, Biden comes in 3rd
He has a major trust deficit -- "Impeachment",
His continuous reference to Obama period
Imagine Warren saying "You Sir, are not Obama!"
How else do you explain steep descent in his ratings?
A week to go.
we don't explain us politics. Trump was elected, which defies explanation and all polling and ratings at that time.
I was once again viewing the first Trump Hillary debate on You Tube
the way 'Secretary Clinton' was demolished right from the start
Trump listing out names of companies closed in Penn., Michigan
while Hillary was listening as if it were fresh news that CNN did not have.
Hillary was dead at start.
Media had to keep her going because Hillary's money was in Media
Trump - nothing

But between the Democrats - so far Media has not polarized on any one candidate.
The democrats see companies closing as a good thing, getting rid of corporate America. The Democrates lives off people who are poor, on welfare, or minorities. Its part of their power to encourage socialism. The minimum wage is pretty much $15 in most places already, your lucky if you can get a cup of coffee anywhere for $1.00 or even $1.25. Many people are already willing to pay $5 for a coffee at Starbucks. Inflation isn't always a bad thing for such things as your wages go up and your mortgage remains the same. As with all media it depends on what you listen to as to who they are talking about. Bloomberg has many commercials out and has spent a ton of money but he really hasn't gotten much of a draw so far. As far as a woman for president I don't think most people have a problem with that in this day and age, but finding the right one is the problem.
I am not sure where that information is gleaned from. How does anyone 'live off' poor, or welfare, or minorities? How does any of that tie to socialism.

The minimum wage is NOT $15 in most places.
I still think, even in this age, the status quo of 'man in charge' is something people still have bias towards, and a woman being there in place of a man is still something people have a problem with, at least at the executive level. I still think a woman in business or politics is held to a much higher scrutiny and standard than a man except, of course, when it comes to harassment in which women are given much more discretion and benefit of the doubt.
Socialism = some "Nationalization"
Amtrak is a fair example of people 'living off subsidies'
Under Socialism, like in India, Bank employees have minimum 10 days off in a month.
Example for March - minimum 11 days off:
March 1 is a Sunday
March 5 is a Wednesday and 1 state observes P R Day
March 6 is Friday when 1 state celebrates Chap Kut festival
March 8 is a Sunday
March 9 is Monday when UP will observe Hazrat Ali anniversary
March 10 is holi
March 11 to 13 – (3 days) Nation wide strike
March 14 is second Saturday
March 15 is Sunday
March 22 is Sunday
March 23 is Monday when 1 state observes Bhagat Singh Day
March 25 is Wednesday – 5 states holiday
March 26 is Thursday – 4 states observing Cheti Chand anniversary
March 27 is Friday – 1 state observing Sarhul festival
March 28 is fourth Saturday
March 29 is Sunday
