It's okay; I'm not a conservative, so I'm not afraid of sharing. Plus, I may lose half my sign, but the whole neighborhood will get free healthcare, maternity leave, and an affordable education because of it.
And they aren't suggesting taking half a sign from some with just one sign. They want to take maybe 10 sign from someone with 10000 to give to someone with none.
Yes, your not too far off except your example is a tax rate of .1%, the current rate is 39.6%, and in order to make the Bern work it would have to go well north of 50%. Other than that, you're spot on! Also, how long do you have to feel the Bern before nobody wants to work hard enough to acquire 10k signs. It will become easier to just wait for someone else to work hard.....
What no one understands is free healthcare, education, higher wages, etc actually does work look at Denmark they have a year paid maternity leave, high minimum wage, free healthcare and education and they have the happiest citizens in the world. Socialism can work but it's all about the person who runs the country and the citizens of said country.
And a different mindset than Denmark. The US has always been the "land of opportunity". Meaning its a place where everyone is free enough to achieve their dreams. That also means that they have to be free enough to fail, you cant have both. Thats the beauty of different states and counties. We all have options.

Since the beginning of the USA, the people who are attracted to the country are the ones wired to take risks in hopes of achieving whatever it is that they couldnt get in their original country. It's the same reason people come here illegally till this day. If you want to change the USA into Denmark, you'll have to change how the people are wired. Best of luck!
