Live Now: Sen. Sanders on the Senate floor now talking about the Koch brothers

http://www.c-span.org/Live-Video/C-SPAN2/

We now have the most unequal distribution of wealth and income distribution in our modern history.

Today, the wealthiest 400 individuals own more wealth than the bottom half of America - 150 million people.

Today, the 6 heirs to the Wal-Mart fortune, own more wealth than the bottom 30% – 90 million Americans

The last study on income distribution showed that in 2010, 93% of all new income created went to the top 1%

The #SCOTUS is giving the wealthiest people in this country the opportunity to buy the U.S. government.

"Not enough for these guys, now they want to buy the US government"

(Bush went to war and he just forgot something, he had a memory lapse, he FORGOT to pay for them! GO Bernie!)
