Why didn't Sanders just pay all of his campaign workers $15 an hour without cutting their hours and laying others off?

    Sanders has no private sector experience. He's clueless on how businesses run. But he thinks he can tell a business to pay their employees $15/hour, yet he can't even pay his own staff that without cutting their hours. What a clueless moron.

    Every one I knew who worked campaign jobs did so for low wage. Many did it for free. This builds area recognition for that person. Or area votes they can control. If there person is elected those votes are traded for a political job. Easy secure money till close to the next election. Then they get out & work for next to nothing to keep there party in power. So they can keep the good paying do nothing job. Except work for 4 months every other year to build there votes so they get a raise & keep there job.

    Or Sanders could quit now and have plenty of money left over for his next vacation home.

    Because Liberal, democrat and communist political ideologies never work.

    Bernie is just another left wing hypocrite.

    You think he's going to redistribute his own wealth? That's not how socialists work.

    Maybe he should tax himself more to pay them better? If he just sold one of his three houses he could pay 10 staffers for an entire year
