Question from Dana Bash 'She (Clinton) is basically saying you are living in fantasyland Senator.'
"Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders defended his policy proposals Sunday, saying that "this is not fantasy -- this is reality" in an interview with CNN's Dana Bash on "State of the Union."
The Vermont senator cited other nations as models: Canada, the United Kingdom and France for his Medicare-for-all health insurance proposal and Germany and Scandanavia -- a region that typically includes Norway, Sweden and Denmark -- for free public college tuition.
He was pushing back against rival Hillary Clinton who has cast his policy proposals as unrealistic.
"All of that may be fantasy to the ruling class and the big money interests in this country. I don't think that's fantasy to the working people in this country who have worked longer hours for lower wages, who are tired of establishment politics and establishment economics," Sanders said...."

the elites think we can't tax them. That we can't change the way the economy works. That we can't develop something new.

live in Fantasyland are the economic royalists. It is quite a yuuuge fantasy to believe and create such massive inequality based in a false sense of superiority.
