Bernie wants free tuition, not free college. That does nothing for me.
Free tuition does not pay room and board. Free tuition does not pay for my food. Free tuition will not buy my books. Free tuition will not make my car payments. Free tuition will not support my family if I take time off working. It helps wealthy people and mostly whites.
Bernie's healthcare is less valuable than money.
I don't anymore, but I used to sell drugs. I was once smoking with someone who asked if they could buy me Panera with a gift card instead of paying their share of money. The food would have been worth more than the pot, but I didn't want it. Panera's great, more value is great, but I have to heat my goddamn house! Healthcare is for rich people who don't even need to think about shit like heating their goddamn house.
Bernie's gonna make gas prices go up.
Fuck the goddamn trees, I need to get to work. Gas prices are the lowest they've been in years. Why the hell's he want to ruin that? Saving the trees is shit you do when you don't need to worry about getting around. How the hell does this benefit me? Why not just take the oil and keep fracking?
I don't want a minimum wage job.
I'm not a teenager. I have a hard job. It's a lot of labor. and It's hard work. Even if people are right that raising the minimum wage won't make people hard to hire, what the hell's it gonna do for people like me who have real jobs? And I still want him to answer why they won't just move to Mexico. This helps rich kid cashiers, not real workers. I don't think Bernie's people even know theres a difference between college-work and fast food jobs.
Why do his supporters make fun of me for saying illegals are taking my jobs??
Maybe if you're gonna go get a fancy job with a degree from a school I can't afford then you're gonna find it funny that some people are worried about this but goddammit. I swear, these people do not give a shit about income inequality. They just want the 10% to be the 1%. If you're under they're floor then they do not care about you and they think it's funny when you struggle. They want the line to be between me and them instead of between them and the 1%.
He's gonna raise my taxes.
Under Trump, I won't be paying income taxes.
Under Bernie, I'll be paying MORE of them. You know it's the same people that say a flat tax favors the rich, who deny that a flat increase hurts me? Anyone rich enough to benefit from Bernie is rich enough not to care about 3% of their taxes but for me that's over $1,000 a year and I need that shit.
What's he gonna do about crime?
Telling me that not every [insert racial group here] is like that doesn't help. How many people does it take to commit a crime? One? Ten? Who cares if there's another 50 that are good people? We need more police in my neighborhood.
He's gonna make it harder for me to get a job.
More college educated people to compete with, more expensive to stay in the US, higher payroll tax to keep people from hiring, more illegals coming through to work for nothing. I'm telling you, if you're not a rich liberal then his policies don't help you.
Ever noticed how much his supporters hate the uneducated?
Damn. I did get my GED but I never graduated college and I know people who didn't even get their GED. They're great people. What the hell is wrong with someone loving the uneducated? What's it say about Bernie that he hates us so much and that his supporters openly hate the fact of someone liking us?
Bernie does not know what it's like to be poor or to be struggling. No amount of soundbytes about how division is bad are gonna help me. No pictures of him marching with MLK are gonna help me. Bernie panders to his rich liberal donors. If you're not gonna donate then he's not gonna help you. He'll talk about you if you're someone that rich white liberals like to see talked about but I'm not black or hispanic so they don't give a shit about me.
