Wealth does not equal income. Taxes are about income earned in a year. You do understand that right?
I've already said I am not posting my taxes. It clearly shows me in the 25% bracket, but barely. He has multiple houses and worth well over 1 million dollars. We're not in the same boat.
He is a hypocrite also for not wanting his wife investigated, while wanting all sorts of other investigations to the right when there is less "evidence".
There is nothing more for me to say on this.

Like you have a choice other than that poor sheep you keep tied up to the bed post.
You're going to have to explain how on earth he is a hypocrite because nothing you've said so far makes that case in any way.
Are you trying to say that because he wants to change our tax laws to tax the rich more he is somehow a hypocrite for following our tax laws as they currently are? I don't think you thought this through. Does this logic apply to other areas of public policy? If you think we should strike Iran or North Korea are you a hypocrite if you don't launch a one man Rambo mission against them?
He doesnt have any wealth and thinks he knows everything already so im pretty sure he doesnt.
You don't know what I have. I am aware that income is what taxes are on. Sanders wants to "tax the rich". I don't have multiple houses and make as much as him last year. Yet he paid a lot less. I never said I know everything. In fact, in a well thought out post that I replied to you (that you never responded to) I said something about "people much smarter than me" about a solution. I wouldn't say that if I didn't know everything. If you are going to make a claim about me, make sure it is factual first.
Fact is, he made more than me, and I paid almost double. His net worth is far superior to mine, and I paid more. He doesn't want his wife investigated, but wants all sorts of other Trump/Repub dealings investigated. He swore off Hillary Clinton, then joined by her after defeated. He is a hypocrite. Don't like it? Too bad.
Go to your 1040 for 2016, take your total taxes owed and divide by total gross income (not AGI, not Federal Taxable on a pay stub, but total gross) if you paid 25% in federal income tax, you are a baller making far more than Bernie. Until you do this, and figure out how progressive taxes work, you have no business debating taxes.
I understand this. I am not posting my taxes, I have said this. I am in the 25% bracket, barely. I am FAR from a baller.
That does not change the fact about the other reasons, (this posts topic) that he is a hypocrite. I have already said why, I am tired of repeating myself.
Especially ifBernie could shoot Trumptards on 5th Avenue and his voters would still back him.
That is a fact!
I am not asking you to post your taxes, I am asking you to do simple arithmetic. Bernie is in the 28% tax bracket, yours is only 25% so using your logic he paid more. I am in the 28% bracket, but only paid 14% with no deductions. Your tax bracket is NOT your effective tax rate.
If you were exactly on the top end of the 25% bracket, married no other deductions your effective tax rate would be 17.9%. That is with no 401k, no IRA, no kids, etc.
Look at Table 2 on this page: https://taxfoundation.org/2017-tax-brackets/
But continuing to compare your marginal tax rate to Bernie's effective tax rate just makes you look ignorant at best or a complete disingenuous hack at worst.
the conservative way is to refuse to see.

how does akmed feel about getting played by the party he admires?
Let it be known that Sanders isn't even running for president right now and this is the type of hit job he'd be facing. This is what Republicans do and they did it to Clinton and they would have done it to Sanders as well.
So all you Bernie supporters complaining about this maybe now you'll understand how complacent you were when you were spouting Republican talking points to discredit Hillary.
