#BerniesTaxCuts a thread.
So when thinking about Bernie Sanders policies, many of us typically think about how they will benefit us as a nation. But I want you all to do me a favor: think DEEPLY about how his policies will directly affect your life in the here and now. How would

tuition free public college or trade school affect you? This tax that you would pay in the form of tuition would be eliminated thus saving you THOUSANDS of dollars and getting an education. You would never have to go into debt to pay it back. What about those of you who already

went to college? How would you fair financially if suddenly you didn't have to pay your student loan debt tomorrow or ever again? What if you could use that money to save for a house or start a business? How about saving for a vacation or buying something you want like a camera?

Parents, how about never having to worry about saving for your child's education again? What if that money can go towards fixing up your home or car repairs or retirement? No, really think about it!

As someone with a chronic illness that needs life-sustaining treatment 3 times

per week, I have had my share of medical bills. How would you benefit from having to never pay on those bills again? What would you spend it on? What would you save it for? Never having to spend that "private tax" to stay out of crushing debt. #MedicareForAll would be one of the

LARGEST working class TAX CUTS in the nation. No more private taxes in the form of copays, deductibles or premiums. The average person would pay 90% less than what you currently pay to the health insurance mafia. How would you spend that money? A trip to the beach? Out fishing?

A hot air balloon ride? What if you could get a #LivingWage? You can work full-time and afford ALL of your necessities without needing to suffer paycheck to paycheck! It's very possible with @donnaimamTX #RealPayForAll policy which would definitely work for all Americans.

When

you think about how you will SAVE and get TAX CUTS under a #PresidentSanders administration, it means that you will be able to have upward mobility. In a union? Get paid MORE with #MedicareForAll because you won't have to negotiate with your employer anymore and that money can go

straight into your pocket in higher wages! Own a business? Less overhead cost and you're able to not stress about providing health insurance for yourself or employees. People will be making more and more tax cuts means they will SPEND more at YOUR business and you will make more

profit and able to grow. #BerniesTaxCuts is deeply pro business and this helps you and boosts the economy.
On Medicare currently? Think about how you will get a $1600 TAX CUT because you will NEVER have to pay Medicare premiums again. I can definitely use $1600 more per year!

Disabled? Bernie wants to expand social security! Together with @SiebeforORD1 they can expand it to a #LivingIncome for all on Social Security Retirement, Social Security and Supplemental Security Income.

#BerniesTaxCuts will even make it affordable for housing. His policy on

#HousingForAll will establish a national rent control and even end homelessness so our tax dollars can be better utilized in an efficient way. Imagine not having to worry about not having enough to pay rent and getting evicted. Think of the peace of mind you will have! We really

NEED to think about the actual tangibles that @BernieSanders policies would give to us all. We can have a society to focuses on all of us having equity and equality so that no one goes without. It's time to have a compassionate government that takes care of it's citizens not a

#CorporateGovernment that works only for the wealthy and well-connected. This is what Bernie Sanders and many other true progressive congressional candidates bring to the table. It's time to take care of each other the way it should be. Let's not just wish or hope, let's ACT on

this. We're Americans! We can get these things done! We did it before and we can AND will do it again.
