Bernie Sanders Opens up a Can of Whoop Ass on GOP Oligarchs

In response to Buffett Rule being blocked by Senate Republicans, Bernie Sanders opened up a can on the GOP and connected the dots between Citizens United and taxing the rich.

Partial transcript from MSNBC:

SCHULTZ: I kind of viewed the buffet rule as a start, really as a start.
SANDERS: Exactly.
SCHULTZ: You think we should have gone further.
SANDERS: Absolutely, here is what worries me very much. if we don’t turn this around, we are going to lose the democratic foundations that have made this country the nation that it is and we are going to move very rapidly, which is where we’re going right now into an oligarchic society where a handful of people control not only the economics of the nation, they control the politics as well.
SCHULTZ: I think when you’re looking at 72% of the American people want something and the congress doesn’t deliver, what does that tell you?
SANDERS: That tells you that our Republican friends are in the pocket of big money interests and they understand, by the way, this should also concern us that with Citizens United Supreme Court decision, these billionaires are pumping huge amounts of money into the political process so they can become even wealthier.
