Quote:A 600k house in Vermont, while it may sound like alot to us working class losers is pretty dog gone modest for a lawyer and senator for over 40 years.


C'mon man

 

Bernie Sanders has been a Senator for 9 years, was in the house for 16 before that, and from what I understand, he was basically close to being a homeless bum for the majority of his adult life.  He didn't have his first real job until he was around 40.  He's also not a lawyer, so you've really bought into a narrative about your icon that's chalked full of misinformation. 

 

Considering he reported his NET WORTH to be right at $160k when he threw his hat in the ring for the presidency, there's certainly room to question how he's able to afford a THIRD home, not in Vermont, but in Ohio. 

 

$600k is a lot for anyone who hasn't sold out, but he didn't seem to have a problem plunking down the money.  So much for being a champion for the little guy.
