Bernie Sanders said what many Democrats fear expressing. We have been in a class war for some time, and the working class has been losing. They’ve been taking incoming flak for decades.
Bernie Sanders: Dems must engage in the class war.
- Bernie Sanders argues that the U.S. has been in a class war for decades, with the upper class consistently coming out on top at the expense of the working class.
- Sanders emphasizes that Democrats need to explicitly engage in class politics by focusing on policies that benefit the working class, such as raising the minimum wage, passing labor law legislation, and healthcare reform.
- The Senator criticizes the Democratic Party for not doing enough to combat corporate greed and for not making it clear to the average worker that they are working on their behalf, thereby allowing figures like Trump to gain traction.
- Sanders argues for a Universal Healthcare system. The patents for medicines developed with government funding should remain with the government. Given that healthcare is a permanent reality, there exists a possibility of forming a government-run pharmaceutical agency.
- The overall message is that the Democratic Party needs to more clearly define its stance and actively work for policies that benefit the working class in order to win elections and bring about meaningful change.
