Sen. Sanders: We live 4 years shorter lives than the people in other wealthy countries, despite all of our expenditures, and working class people on average live 7 years fewer than the wealthy.
Got that? So being working class in this country is in many ways a death sentence.

So he went from the LA rally to Coachella. He's 83 and fighting like this. This should be an inspiration to all of us. If he can do this, we can all do a little more.

When Bill Clinton cut 300,000 + jobs from the federal workforce, he did it with the APPROVAL of Congress after review and a VOTE!
He did NOT illegally take it upon himself to drastically slash entire agencies and programs - with NO plan for continued service.
