Bernie Sanders more or less want to import a lot of European ideas into the US and that wouldn't be a bad thing considering the high quality of living, standards and protections they get in Europe.
Some will say there is a downside that is higher taxes, but is it?, lower taxes mostly ends up with more wealth going into fewer hands whereas higher taxes tend to redistribute wealth among all the people, especially the poor and middle classes and more so with competent governments.
This virus could be a massive wake up call that could push many of these things that Europeans take for granted up the political ladder in the US but I suspect the American people will have to fight for it because I doubt the rich elites are going to make it easy as they have much to lose from that, it also makes me wonder what changes Europe is going to make because I suspect some big changes are on the way after this.
Bernie Sanders is more or less a European in the wrong system but as a European myself, got to give Bernie credit for trying all these decades but ultimately, the Americans have got to want that he's trying to sell, for so long, that hasn't got anywhere, maybe this virus will be the real wake up call.
