Bernie Sanders is popular because he is the only one willing to address Corporate Welfare.

Hes popular because he promises people free shit. Remember folks, if they'll steal for you, they won't hesitate to steal from you.

Not to mention that it crushes the middle class. All of his ideas only help the poor, they raise taxes on literally everyone else.

Also he doesn't care about massive immigration. So I can't wait until my taxes are 50% because I have to pay for every Mexican and Guatemalan that can crawl across the border. Yay. Free college and healthcare for the entire American continent.

He isn't promising anyone anything free. He wants to cut corporate welfare and give that money back to who it really belongs to, the taxpayers!

This is not true. Rand Paul, Gary Johnson (may he run), and many others have addressed this issue. The difference is that Bernie promises to solve it by increasing government which is exactly the reason corporate welfare managed to exist in the first place.

Rand Paul hasn't really offered anything concrete, and he has voted for pork spending in the past.
