Bernie Sanders sees red lights flashing for election – Harvard Gazette

“Vermont senator warns of growing income, wealth, and political inequality.”

“’Workers have not benefited from the increased worker productivity and technology — people on top have,’ he said. ‘So I think it is time that workers benefit from it.’

Sanders’ talk also repeatedly underscored one of his other major congressional agenda items — Medicare for all. ‘What is the role of government in society?’ Sanders asked. ‘It would seem to me when you boil it down, it’s to create a society in which people live long, happy, and productive lives … despite this huge expenditure on healthcare, our life expectancy is significantly less than … many, many countries.'”
