Bernie Sanders on Dems ‘Seismic’ Victory: The New Dem Majority Has Got To Be Bold and Take on the Oligarchs

‘Mr. Musk himself now owns more wealth than the bottom 53% of American households’

RUSH EXCERPT:
SANDERS: "I do look, the American people are looking around. They‘re seeing millions of their fellow Americans struggling to put food on the table, pay for health care, pay for housing, pay for the basic necessities of life. Worried that their kids will even have a lower standard of living than they do. And at the same time, the people on top have never, in the history of the United States ever had it so good. Mr. Musk himself now owns more wealth than the bottom 53% of American households. It‘s not just me who thinks that‘s insane. It‘s what the American people believe. We are the only major country not to guarantee health care to all people. As a human right. 66% of the American people now say, we‘ve got to pass Medicare for all. You‘ve got millions of workers out there working for starvation wages, got to raise the minimum wage to a living wage, make it easier for workers to join unions. People are scared about a.I. being pushed by these Big Tech oligarchs. They‘re worried about their jobs, their privacy. They‘re worried about the mental health of their kids. They‘re worried about what happens if a.I. becomes independent of human control. We have to deal with it. Bottom line. Right now, this country faces enormous crises. The new democratic majority has got to be bold work. Take on the oligarchs and fight for the working class of this country."
