MB, all due respects, I just can't watch these for long, but the first 2mins proves my point, when I say all the tine 'libs dont answer questions'. The interviewer asks Bernie, "Why can't you (do llke) Joe Manchin and get out there and do so-and-so, use your platforms, etc. ?"
This qualifies as a question, a question to be answered by Bernie. He does not answer the ...[text shortened]... voters. SO, he keeps it between the lines. He is for all concepts of socialism, last time I looked.
"MB, all due respects, I just can't watch these for long"

Then you don't want to know the truth. You are avoiding it.

Appears that way, I guess. But as you probably could not listen to Mark Levin or Hannity for 5 minutes without getting a bit nauseous, so it goes that I cannot stomach the parasitic Bernie. Did you really listen to Trump rave on in the old days? If you did, it was purely for entertainment, as he was much like a circus barker!!! Bernie?? He aint that entertaining!
Be honest.

Do you feel like you answer questions? If a girl in town has more children than she can afford, of course I would help, and ask other people, to help her. How could one not. Voluntarily help her. Help her find her way, But if I ask that question of libs, they mention the government for some reason that I just do not understand. MB, what does the govt have to do with it.?
You still have not adequately explained why this so-called conservative logic applies to individual citizens but not huge corporations.

A good observation. So, you I think are saying that a corporation (the girl in my analogy) finds itself in trouble and should the government 'bail them out', get them back on their feet, as we charitably would with the girl.
If we do nothing for the girl, (we have no duty of care to her), then she is left to her own devices and her existence does not affect society. You will say she puts a drag on society's entitlements, but then that is what soup kitchens and child care and many many programs are already there for. (The ones that allow a grown healthy man to sit on a sofa all day and feed on the government.)

A corp is of interest to a government that has to balance the interest of the community with that of the individual. The individual needs Chrysler for cars, it needs banks, it needs farmers, all of whom are given assistance by a government. Their demise would have a negative impact on the community, or on a larger scale, the country.;
Different result than that which we would have if we leave the girl with her problems.

What is your bottom line as to how far down the population goes into poverty?

5%? 10%? 20% too much? If so what would you do as POTUS to lower that number?
