'The middle classes have been squeezed at the expense of the very rich, according to research by Credit Suisse, which also finds that for the first time, there are more individuals in the middle classes in China – 109m – than the 92m in the US.
Bernie understands the problem to a point. Probably better than the majority but to tackle the problem one has to admit to the problem in whole and Bernie can't seem to bring himself to do that.

What is he, Jesus Christ?
He does what he can under the circumstances.

To be fair: the middle class of China, isn't the same as our middle class plus they SHOULD have a larger middle class considering their population. Essentially 1/3 of our people are middle class, compared to their 1/10. Nonetheless, that isn't the argument, the argument is we need to do more to grow our middle class and that claim cannot be refuted.
Income inequality is a problem, but its not something that is terribly concerning to me. The third world and poor people keep adding to their numbers, non-stop, every day, exponentially.
The #1 weapon in the fight against income inequality is birth control and condoms.

I am always amazed at how struggling middle class conservative republicans go to bat for the billionaires of the world.
I am not saying there is anything wrong with being rich, but we have come to a point where even the billionaires you guys defend have realized they simply have too much wealth.
And yet the little conservative guys who struggle from paycheck to paycheck vote republican because of xenophobia, homophobia, fear of agnostics. etc.
