I wont be starving, I have a steady income and no college debt due to smart choices. I could see
Bernie supporting some crappy welfare plan that tries to emulate Sweden's and being a huge colossal failure. His plans of "let me just tax wall street" is ridiculous and I don't agree with university being free (really? lets not encourage more people to get degrees so they become meaningless. We don't need hundreds of thousands of people putting more time to study in university).
You want the economy to be good, then best believe Bernie is not the man to do that. Looking at some of these policies is ridiculous

Creating 1 million jobs for disadvantaged young Americans by investing $5.5 billion in a youth jobs program. Today, the youth unemployment rate is off the charts. We have got to end this tragedy by making sure teenagers and young adults have the jobs they need to move up the economic ladder.

Young americans can find jobs if they need them
It is NOT that hard. They just don't want to take the jobs that are available. There is no reason to be investing 5.5 BILLION dollars in this type of program. Leave this to the private sector, not government.

Making tuition free at public colleges and universities throughout America. Everyone in this country who studies hard should be able to go to college regardless of income.

Once again, no. We do not need tax dollars being used to subsidize the tuition of people who frankly SHOULD NOT be going to college. It is ok to not go to college. We have lots of jobs that are necessary that do not require it. We shouldn't be encouraging more students to go into this broken college/university model. Sorry.

Increasing the federal minimum wage from $7.25 to $15 an hour by 2020. In the year 2015, no one who works 40 hours a week should be living in poverty.

Ridiculous. Businesses are struggling now with wage increases and our economy is on a delicate bubble with interest rates about to rise for the first time in almost a decade and the global economy on the brink of disaster. The last thing we need is to double people's salaries overnight. Frankly, 15 dollar minimum wage in certain parts of the country is understandable, but this should not be a federal standard. Businesses are not going to be able to handle this pressure.
Sometimes, conservatives make sense. I have strongly backed liberals because social policies have always been my primary concern for voting. However, I can not respectfully back a man who is as much of an Ideologue as Trump is in propagating this false message of being able to solve these complicated issues with money taxed from Wall Street. Bernie Sanders has manipulated people into thinking that change is on his way with his Presidency and it is just not happening. Money will not be redistributed in the dramatic fashion that is being presented and his presidency would be a one-term disaster.
