Sanders is essentiall­y bribing young voters

- Gary Hyvonen Alpine

I am disgusted that Bernie Sanders is castigatin­g Mike Bloomberg for attempting to buy the election. Not that it isn’t true, but because Bernie himself is guilty of the same charge. At least Bloomberg is using his own massive checkbook to garner support. Bernie has resorted to using an even bigger treasure chest, our taxpayer money, to purchase the same loyalty, promising free health care, free college, (almost) free housing. Free, free, free.

Bernie is smart enough to know that the younger crowd he is luring still believes there is such a thing as a free lunch. He will be long gone by the time they finally figure out it will give them heartburn. Yeah, Bloomberg isn’t the only one trying to “buy” the election.

Feel the burn? Just the one putting a hole in my wallet.
