LETTER: Bernie and AOC hit Las Vegas

Bernie Sanders and AOC were recently in Las Vegas on their More Free Stuff Tour, calling for free health care and free college. They never did mention how they planned to pay for it or dig us out from our ballooning national debt. The IRS says you could take every dollar billionaires make each year and it wouldn’t pay for the free stuff, much less help pay our debt.

They used to call for a $15 an hour minimum wage. Now that this a growing reality, they are upping the ante to $17. Won’t that cause inflation?

Remember when Bernie used to denigrate “millionaires and billionaires”? Then people found out he was a multi-millionaire. Now just billionaires are his target.

It is interesting that when he and fellow Democrats call for people to fight, that’s acceptable. But if Mr. Trump says “fight,” they claim that’s anarchy.
