'Fox & Friends' Has Total Meltdown Over Sanders Plan to Guarantee Every American a Decent-Paying Job
Expressing disbelief that a politician would deign to embrace a widely popular idea that could bring massive numbers of voters to the polls and drastically reduce inequality, President Donald Trump’s favorite show “Fox & Friends” ran a segment on Tuesday sliming Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I-Vt.) plan to guarantee every American a decent-paying job as a mere “vote-buying operation.”
“That’s what it is,” grumbled Fox News host Stuart Varney. “Fifteen dollars an hour, a government job with benefits guaranteed by the government.”
In addition to scoffing at Sanders’ desire to give unemployed Americans jobs and pay them decent wages, the “Fox & Friends” panel was particularly appalled by the idea that the rich might be required to pay a bit more in taxes to fund the program.
“Who’s going to pay for it?” asked host Steve Doocy.
“I’m sure it will be, ‘tax the rich because the rich because the rich will be paying their fair share,'” Varney said. “It’s a nonstarter.”
