Although I am personally upset by Hillary campaign and her notorious coterie, I don't find any other alternative than Hillary to continue on good works laid by Obama. We need a president who will ignore liberal fools like Michael Moore or evangelical rights. We need a president for common American like us who are neither liberal nor evangelical but want to work hard for making a fortune. We want a president who is friendly to both business and labor class. If a politician is promising a divide between business and labor class, he is simply repeating a disaster seen many times before. Bernie is a populist who is trying to sail on common anger of Americans who have seen their life and fortunes stagnated in last two decades. But Bernie has no solution for it except some well known socialist pacifiers which will make us bankrupt. Only way we will rise again, if education, research and entrepreneurship are given priority and state funding for generating wealth and well paying jobs. That's what Obama did and Bernie is trying to destroy that by villifying American entrepreneurs. If elected he will be the biggest disaster for America. If possible I will support Obama for third time but since that is not possible Hillary is only choice. If Bernie is elected in primary, I will be forced to oppose him to save USA going down to path of Greece.
Hailing from state of West Bengal in India before leaving for USA, for first 27 years of my life, I have lived under a Govt which was "communist " ( Communist party of India -which ruled state of West Bengal for 34 years ) and I have seen how their policies which are similar to Bernie-destroyed the most prosperous state to one of the most poorest state in India now in the name of equality and vodo economics of wealth distribution. Sorry guys, business does not work in the way Bernie thinks it should work. If Bernie imposes those corporate Tax-first thing that you will see-more jobs will fly from USA to India and China-middle class of this country will be even poorer. In state of MD, where I live I wont start my manufacturing-I will prefer Tx or Pen state where laws are more conducive to manufacturing business. Business works on business logic and not on political ideology. So if Bernie is elected president and Dem also wins Senate and Congress ( which is unlikely) and he is able to raise corporate tax [ which is already high in USA], more business will leave USA-more people will lose their job. Historically labor benefits/wage increase can happen within a capitalist system by imposing more Anti-trust law and supporting more innovative start-up so that Market doesn't see any monopoly. Nowhere in the world, one can show me a single example, where labor laws guaranteed better labor wages. In fact when such thing happened, business left the shore. What we need is strict-antimonopoly law so that business competes to get best talents and thus, wage is increased. From 1880-1910, US has seen 37,000 labor strikes ( historically the most turbulent time for labor unions) and yet the country has not seen any wage increase. Wage in USA historically increased only after FDR strictly imposed anti-trust laws-which broke monopoly and thus for acquiring talents and quality, salary for middleclass increased automatically. So learn from history instead of being fooled by Bernie. His recipes are for proven failures.
I am literally scared to hell when I see so many Americans even don't understand or failing to understand Bernie is simply fooling around without any feasible or tangible solution. Increase corporate tax? First thing that would happen, more jobs will leave for India and China. Free higher education ? Yes, we need that by curtailing Military budget and not by increasing corporate tax which would impact job growth negatively. Wealth creators are enemy ? OK. Then why did I come here leaving my country to chase American dream of creating new business and technology? It is because US allows such a nice capitalist system to reward hard-work and talents. In the process a nation benefits from innovation and new jobs.
