On Late Night with Seth Meyers, Senator Bernie Sanders, and Independent from Vermont, talked about the wealth gap in America. Senator Sanders is a self proclaimed Democratic Socialist and frequently talks about the immense wealth gap and inequalities of America.
SANDERS: “Being honest with the American people, talking about the growing gap between the very rich and everybody else. You got three people in America own more wealth than the bottom half of American society. You got three Wall Street firms that have assets of 20 trillion dollars. Major stockholders and hundreds and hundreds of companies throughout America. You got billionaires buying elections right now, you're following what's going on. So, we got to be honest with the American people about what's going on about who owns and controls the nation and then have the guts to stand up to these powerful special interest and tell these greedy bastards, they cannot have it all.”
