    Meanwhile Elizabeth Warren wants to wipe away student debt — with a $1.25 trillion tax on the rich. I thought the rich were going to be covering cover free healthcare for all to the tune of $25 trillion. They really are rich, aren't they?

    Comment


      Beto O’Rourke underpaid two years of taxes by more than $4,000 and he's freaking cheap. Just imagine the free for all if it were Trump.

          Anne Carlstein, a junior at Harvard, asked Sanders, “You have said that you believe that people with felony records should be allowed to vote while in prison. Does this mean that you would support enfranchising people like the Boston Marathon bomber, a convicted terrorist and murderer? Do you think that those convicted of sexual assault should have the opportunity to vote for politicians who could have a direct impact on women’s rights?”

          SANDERS: "Now, here is my view. If somebody commits a serious crime, sexual assault, murder, they’re going to be punished. They may be in jail for 10 years, 20 years, 50 years, their whole lives. That’s what happens when you commit a serious crime.

          But I think the right to vote is inherent to our democracy, yes, even for terrible people, because once you start chipping away and you say, well, that guy committed a terrible crime, not going to let him vote. Oh, that person did that, not going to let that person vote. You’re running down a slippery slope."




          HARRIS: I agree that the right to vote is one of the very important components of citizenship and it is something that people should not be stripped of needlessly, which is why I have been long an advocate of making sure that the formally incarcerated are not denied a right to vote, which is the case in so many states in our country, in some states permanently deprived of the right to vote.

          LEMON: But people who are in — convicted, in prison, like the Boston Marathon bomber, on death row, people who are convicted of sexual assault, they should be able to vote?

          HARRIS: I think we should have that conversation.
          Harris's opinion has "evolved" in less than 24 hours.

          “Do I think that people who commit murder, people who are terrorists should be deprived of their rights? Yeah, I do. I’m a prosecutor. There has to be serious consequences for the most extreme types of crimes.”

          She certainly can tell which way the wind is blowing, can't she?

                What's Powering the Stock Market's Record Highs? Strong Earnings—and FOMO

                The stock market is on a roll.

                The S&P 500 reached a record high at the close on Tuesday for the first time since September, while the Nasdaq Composite also notched a closing high for the first time since August.

                The rally is being powered by a better-than-expected earnings for the first quarter. The solid results have been across the board in U.S. companies including Caterpillar Inc., Coca-Cola Co., United Technologies Corp., Lockheed Martin Corp., Twitter Inc. and Snap Inc.

                Boom: Hispanics lead housing, income surge, poverty at record low

                Latinos are finding their economic legs under the Trump administration, leading the surge in home ownership and income growth and record low poverty rates, according to two comprehensive new surveys.

                Workers at the lower end of the pay scale finally are getting the most benefit from rising wages

                The recent jump in paychecks has come with an unusual characteristic, as workers at the lower end of the pay scale are getting the greater benefit.

                Average hourly earnings rose 3.4 percent in February from the same period a year ago, according to a Bureau of Labor Statistics report last week. That’s the biggest gain since April 2009 and seventh month in a row that compensation has been 3 percent or better.

                The bottom half of earners are benefiting more than the top half — in fact, about twice as much, according to calculations by Goldman Sachs. The trend began in 2018 and has continued into this year, and could be signaling a stronger economy than many experts think.

                  Actually he's on record that he's benefiting as well. New business, off the charts busy, construction, etc.

                  Good for him. Attitude aside, I never want anyone to fail.

                  Too bad he'll find a way to give credit to someone else.

                      He wants socialism, but is free to make as much money as HE wants.

                      I love how the new socialist crew draws arbitrary lines on what is obscene wealth and what is not. Coincidentally...it's always just above what they make...

                              We should have a conversation about allowing felons to buy guns. Bernie, Kamala, and now Pressley are saying these felons still have rights, so why not gun rights too? After all it's a "slippery slope" "chipping away" at people's rights.

                                Imagine a close election, and the difference depending upon the votes of convicted murderers , and those on Death row,

                                Are Democrats really saying that the right to vote applies to the murderers, who took away the voting rights of the citizen they killed ?
