Senator Bernie Sanders joins WIRED to answer the internet’s burning questions about the oligarchy. What does Bernie mean by ‘oligarchy?’ Why do we call Russian billionaires oligarchs while we call US billionaires entrepreneurs? Can billionaires buy elections?

We’re going down the same road they’re going down. The US isn’t that much better but we still have real elections.

Couldn’t* care less, Bernie. Couldn’t. It means could not care less. Could care less only means the same thing to people who are interested in maintaining counter-intuitive phrasing of things for purposes of elitism.

Wired said it tracked every visitor to Epstein Island via their mobile phones, what happened to that geolocation data?

That’s fine that democrats are on here, but y’all also need republicans to do the WIRED autocomplete interview. WIRED is politically biased towards liberals even though they should be fair.

Isn’t this just a big Bernie ad? You need to find someone who provided unbiased unopinionated facts/insights maybe????

I don’t agree with many of his policies, but I agree on many of his points about what is wrong with America. Why he isn’t always the Democratic Presidential candidate, I will never know.

I just spent $300-$500 a week this past month on groceries! I couldn’t even believe it! If this was just on food it would be insane. I’m also talking about pet necessities, elderly care items, and just regular needs. It’s ridiculous. I think back to my grandmother who had to split a can of tomato soup between 9 children during the great depression. We are not there yet but I don’t know how others are doing it.

Let’s be real. Kamala doubled down on Israel and open border and people said no. Need I remind you of the situation in places like New York City for immigration. Let’s agree to never do open border again. If everyone coming in has money then sure. All for it. If people need aid? No. We need a line. It’s not fair but we clearly don’t have infinite resources to solve world poverty.

(note (or a response to the part of this video between these points of its length: 2:30 – 2:47): this video could had been better off without vulgar (or profane) language (for the sake of its audience, its contributors, and politeness in general))
(suggestion: always be polite and considerate (one more suggestion: this Biblical verse: “Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them.” – Ephesians 4:29, New Living Translation version))
