Sanders pushes family leave plan, says workers can afford $1.39-a-week tax increase to pay for it

With your help and encouragement we could make that change. It wont happen if we continue putting value in money and not in the people. Maybe if I had a 15 dollar an hour job I could be able to send them some aid?? But unfortunately for me my lobar is not valued that much. Im a sign electrician/sign fabricator(not a real electrician) but I guess the danger of dying from high voltage electrocution is a small price to pay for the privileged. I live in Texas by the way so yeah maybe that will help make sense as to why my labour is valued so low. Im currently broke when I had to use my extra cash to pay for my dogs hernia surgery. $480 because he kept ripping his stitches and I eventually had to use supper glue to keep it shut. It worked like a charm. A man cant even afford a best friend these days. And I have it good compared to the real suffering. So yeah Im ready to sacrifice for everybody its just easier for me cause I have less to lose then most. But I care enough to sacrifice what I have too. I have work a slave wage, I have gone hungry at times, I have given my last $20 to a random person, I have done what I could when those moments arose. Have you. Have the banker? Would the banker even attempt to be charitable if it didnt give him a tax break? Sanders is running is platform on corruption so if his plans involved a corruption then it would be easier to call him out to fix it. You cant say that about the other candidates who do what they want regardless of the peoples wishes. My best bet is with Sanders for the world I want to create. Im will compromise when necessary with him but I dont see myself finding any common ground with Hillary or a Republican. They have no morals. They only care for the few.
