These are the things that Bernie went on about, and it looks like they really is resinating in people.

This is the camel's nose under the tent.

With no due process? Eventually all political enemies will be on the list with no way to get off.

▪ 77 percent support increasing the minimum wage

Price controls don't work. Let the free market sort it out.

▪ 78 percent support allowing student loans to be refinanced at lower rates

Student loans are the reason tuition is so expensive. Also, if you can't afford the loan don't get a sociology degree that doesn't pay.

▪ 53 percent support legislation protecting LGBT South Carolinians from discrimination in the workplace, housing, and public accommodations

There is no need for FEDERAL legislation. The federal government needs to but out of decisions that should be left to the states.

Bernie's Socialism is the road to serfdom.
