Bernie: uses bullshit numbers that only applies to the incredibly wealthy

You: uses bullshit numbers that apply to nobody Bernie mentioned

Nobody is buying 500k houses and cashing in on 20m of gains in 10 years. Even if it was, you'd need to do that a few hundred times to be on Bernie's radar.

Effectively, your message is we can't tax only the wealthy because if they did it, everyone else would be destute.

Weird how not taxing the wealthy hasn't made everyone rich.
