I don’t know Sanders, other than what I read in the news. Governmental authorities are to whom I refer. I suppose Sanders is a cog in a gear of that machinery. Consider the US as a whole. It started out as an anti-corporate nation. During the 1800s there were several court decisions which empowered corporations. Now it’s a corporatocracy. These are the kinds of lies to which I refer. Given a sufficiently long time period, a wealth tax will be used against the poor and the rich will laugh about it. It may have value in the short term to do what is claimed.
The US was never “an anti-corporate nation.” The founders were very keen on protecting the wealth of the elites, it’s why they wanted to prevent “mob rule.” The 1800s was when anti- corporate movements began to form.
Your perspective is nihilistic and defeatist. Just because one country historically “failed” to design a government that puts people over profits (something that was never the intent to start with) it means we should just throw in the towel and stop trying?
My dad’s self-publishing a book and formed a one person corporation as part of that. By your logic, if you take away corporate rights, then soon enough you’ll be coming after small authors like that. It’s inevitable. Just a law of the universe.
Or, you know, it isn’t, that’s bullshit, and the same is true for a wealth tax.
Who’s they? Bernie Sanders?

Fix your ignorance.
You won’t get further replies from me.
