“I think media makes a bigger deal of it than it should. Look at the issues! Should every American have health care as a right at a time when we spend twice as much per capita on health care as any other country, have the highest prices in the world for prescription drugs, and 30 million people have no health insurance? That is a disastrous system. Of course, we need to move to Medicare for all. Should, at a time we’re in a competitive global economy, we make public colleges and universities tuition-free? The answer is yes. Look at the issues out there. But I will also say this, John. I think that there is growing resentment, not only among young people, who in many cases are going to have a lower standard of living than their parents. I think that there is an understanding there is something fundamentally immoral and wrong about a nation in which we have three people who own more wealth than the bottom half of the American people. That does not make sense.”Translation: Please, let’s not talk about socialism, because people hate it. Let’s just stick to the usual class warfare rhetoric
