I mean you are wrong. My family had their farm, property, and businesses taken away. I've argued for years against socialists that its not some socialist paradise. now that its impossible to hide, people still don't admit their wrong. this is on bernie sander's site to this day:

I am curious, what kind of business was it? I can't really defend Sanders on that point, ultimately he and I have different goals, my goal is not to reduce income inequality, but rather to create the material conditions such that things like "income inequality" cannot manifest themselves.
