The problem with creating these socialist utopias is someone has to pay for the programs. A quick Google search and I found this.

One of the things you will note is the 56% top tax bracket. Bernie has actually proposed a top bracket of nearly 80%.

Now let me ask a simple question...

If I’m a business owner why would I take all the risk with my money to give 80 cents of every dollar to the government. That’s the problem with socialism, Democratic or otherwise,; no incentive to be productive or innovative.

If I’m the business owner I’m taking my company out of the country or I will just shut it down and keep my money in my pocket.

Liberals are bad enough. They act like you can saddle businesses with high taxes and the golden goose with just keep laying those golden eggs. Socialists kill the golden goose, and expect it to keep laying eggs.

You can’t socialize anything and improve it. Medicine, for example, as the linked article points out, is substandard in the Nordic Countries. Bernie doesn’t tell anyone that as he tries to sell his plan. My Canadian friends come across the border for healthcare in the States.

Finally one of the biggest problems I have with socialism is the free education. I paid for my education. I paid for my three children. All with advanced degrees. If they eliminate all student loans, I want a damn refund. Why should I or anyone else that worked two jobs to pay for school not get a refund? Just because millennials are too damn lazy to work and pay off their loans, how come I have to pay higher taxes.
