Most of the Bernie fans have no marketable skills. They rack up hundred of thousands in student debt on worthless, unmarketable degrees ending with the word "studies". I know this firsthand as I know dozens of them. They usually end up in the service industry as baristas, servers or bartenders all-the-while paying an insurmountable debt of their own creation. One student asked me if he should change from "history studies" to econ after his history professor warned him that there was no money or future in history unless you become a professor. I also encouraged him to change majors, which thankfully he did.
The big mystery for me is who is steering all these high school students into these worthless degrees? How could their parents possibly support or encourage a degree in something like gender studies when, at best, they will end school $130K in debt and earn a paltry $35K a year as a social worker?
Unsuccessful people who have made poor life choices often blame successful people for their own f—ups. Hey, it's easier than taking a good hard look in the mirror. And successful people who have made good life choices are disparagingly labeled "privileged". Bernie's entire political career is based on class warfare and envy, but even more sinister is his movement's ideology that unsuccessful people bear no responsibility whatsoever for their lack of success; they are simply victims of external forces.
