What Clint said. I wasn't trying to quote Chomsky. Baraki Sellers was manufacturing dissent - creating an argument against Bernie where there isn't one.

I was saying manufacturing ‘dissent’. Didn’t mean to necessarily quote Chomsky. This is literally manufacturing dissent - it’s creating an argument where there isn’t one.

Yes, Bernie doesn't shy away from the fact that you'll have to pay more taxes. But when you look at countries that are taxed more (like the Scandinavian countries) these are consistently ranked as the happiest places on earth. And at least in terms of healthcare, more people will be paying less in taxes than they would be for a private insurance plan - not to mention it completely rids the need of having to negotiate with insurance companies. As a Canadian I see it first hand. While every country has its problems, we are a happy group of people here, and even our Conservative Party doesn't play with the idea of ridding a universal public system in favour of privatizing healthcare. I feel it's important to be empathetic to people who weren't as fortunate as you or I are; we don't all start out on a level playing field.

I’m not giving Bakari Sellers new exposure, he’s on CNN. I only tend to avoid doing videos on people that I think have a terrible and destructive ideology who also haven’t “made it” yet.
