Leadership and vision

IT ISN’T that easy to find politicians who are willing to speak against rich and powerful institutions. Bernie Sanders is an exception—he fights for the welfare of ordinary people. These quotes from the Democrat presidential aspirant reflect his leadership and vision:

Let us wage a moral and political war against billionaires and corporate leaders, whose policies and greed are destroying the middle class.

What Wall Street and credit card companies are doing is not much different from the predatory loans offered by gangsters and loan sharks. They’re destroying people’s lives.

CEOs of large corporations earn 400 times what their workers make.

Let us wage a moral and political war against war itself, so that we can cut military spending and use the money saved for human needs.
Good environmental policy is good economic policy.

If we are serious about cutting air and water pollution and reducing greenhouse gas emissions, we should invest in solar energy.

In 49 countries around the world, people have the opportunity of knowing whether or not they’re eating food that contains genetically engineered ingredients. In the United States, we don’t. When a mother purchases food for her child, she has the right to know what she’s feeding her family.
