Bloomberg is apparently not done with attacking the 99 percent. He has launched a new Super PAC to boost candidates who share his plutocratic vision for America. In an interview with the New York Times, Bloomberg threw his support to embattled incumbent Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA) while absurdly invoking the Soviet Union to blast his bold progressive challenger Elizabeth Warren:
In the Senate, Scott Brown, who single-handedly stopped the right-to-carry bill. You can question whether hes too conservative. You can question, in my mind, whether shes Gods gift to regulation, close the banks and get rid of corporate profits, and wed all bring socialism back, or the U.S.S.R.

(9,350 posts)This from the guy who pushed a law that told people what they can and cannot eat and drink. With all the things Micheal Bloomberg has done in New York City he is one of the last people who should claim another person is trying to bring back socialism. How many rights has Bloomberg trampled?
