His whole shtick is raging about how the 1% don't pay their fair share and that tax cuts for the rich is immoral. Then, when it comes down to it, Bernie Sanders, a member of the 1%, pays exactly $0.00 over the minimum that he is legally required to. If he thinks that tax cuts for the rich is wrong, and that someone like him should be paying more, there is nothing stopping him from paying more income tax, yet he doesn't. You don't see that as hypocritical? I think the man is a downright fraud to be honest with you.
