Letter to the editor: Not all people like Bernie

Editor’s note: The writer is responding to a caption in last week’s edition referring to Sen. Bernie Sanders as “The people’s senator.”

The people?

The uninformed, badly educated, immature people who can barely balance a checkbook, having zero understanding of finance and economics.

The “white guilt” trust-funders who self-righteously vote for Sanders believing that his crazy, destructive schemes will not touch their inheritance.

The people (significant in Vermont) who despise America, its culture and history.

The people who think that money comes from the stork and life should be “free” of accountability and responsibility.

All cheering an individual who has become a millionaire while never drawing a paycheck in the private sector.
