Bernie Sanders has the 3 houses part of it. Dunno about the boats or cars, but he has the houses. Why don't we ask him why he needs 3 houses?

Bernie Sanders has three big houses, a boat, several cars, and multi-million dollar book deals. What does he need half that stuff for?

I don't know. I'm German and how Americans continue to almost exclusively elect millionaires into federal positions amazes me.

It's because our system is heavily skewed to reward the biggest campaign spenders.

The people who build houses, boats, and cars might be pretty happy about it.
