In 2003, Alan Greenspan was probably one of the most powerful people in Washington, when Bernie confronted him about the job losses, the shrinking middle class, the fact that Walmart had replaced General Motors as the biggest employer and was paying starvation wages, the loss of manufacturing, the Extravagant CEO pay, ...etc.
I don't remember how many Senators or House Representative who have taken on the establishment head-on like Bernie Sanders is doing it here. But, it is not only what Bernie said. It is how he said it. It is the ton of his voice, the look on his face. Compare that to the arrogance of Greenspann, his insulting and condescending attitude. Look at how he dismisses the question. I don't know if there is anything that best describes the TWO Americas that exist today than this exchange.
5 years later, the arrogant and self serving Alan Greenspann came to Congress to beg for money to bail out his friends.
If there is somebody I want to see as my President, Bernie is the guy. He pulls no punches, he tells it like it is. He speaks for those who don't have a voice anymore in Washington. Thanks Bernie for taking on arrogant Billionaires and Millionaires.
