The great thing about being an avowed socialist is that you get to posture as a self-righteous man of the people without forgoing the benefits of wealth. Take the case of Bernie Sanders, whose self-reported net worth was $528,014, yet who just spent a reported $600,000 on a summer “vacation home” with 500 feet of lake frontage on gorgeous Lake Champlain.
What kind of elderly couple spends more than their net worth on a vacation home? Certainly, at a minimum, we can say a couple with no financial worries.
Local Paper Seven Days Vermont broke the story Monday that Senator Sanders:

My Take - Hey Bernie, you're so hot about sharing all the weath so how about sharing that $600,000 with the poor people living in the people's socialist paradise of Venezuela? Oh...my bad.....If forgot......socialist leaders only share other people's wealth.....hmmmm....isn't that what the mob does?
