Sanders plan will never pass the legal challenges, more pandering lip service.

Damn don't ya love communism!

OK that's a Bernie idea I can actually get behind. Would it ever happen? Probably not. But it's a cool idea.

Can you imagine the board meetings? “Huh...point of order...I’d like to do an interpretive dance before we begin.”

this makes sense

loads of large companies like Microsoft already issue their staff with equity. I think there’s strong precedent that giving employees a share of the pie is actually great for business.

Why do all leftist want to kill business in America? Don’t they know that huge taxes and BS like this will just make them move offshore? Once those company’s move out of the US, there will be no tax revenue - not the mention the huge loss of jobs to Americans.

And this is why Bernie Sanders would be a disaster as President.
