Bernie Sanders is coming to Minneapolis for a rally on behalf of Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan, who is running for Minnesota’s open Senate seat. It will be a real rogues’ gallery, as Ilhan Omar and Keith Ellison will also show up to back the far-left Flanagan:
MINNESOTA: Join me, @peggyflanagan, along with special guests @IlhanMN and @keithellison next Monday in Minneapolis for a Many Over the Money GOTV rally ahead of the August 11 primary.
Together, let’s build a government that takes on the greed of the billionaire class. pic.twitter.com/Xs1Auo4JzA

The event will be at First Avenue, a music venue made famous by Prince.
Sanders says he wants to take on “the greed of the billionaire class.” I suppose a billionaire could be greedy, but that can’t make you rich. To get rich, you have to serve other people. You have to provide goods or services that a lot of people value and purchase voluntarily.
In fact, the greediest institutions in our society are governments. Governments have an insatiable craving for other people’s money. Their greed is literally never satisfied. Has any government ever said, “We’ve got enough of your money. We don’t want any more”? And they don’t rely on voluntary transactions with satisfied customers and clients, they take your money by force, through taxes.
That’s what I call greed.
