I agree with you 99% of the time, Bob, but this is an exception. Please don't include "all of us" in your claim to universal greed. I'd be happy to debate with you whether or not I or many of my closest friends are greedy. My income is below the poverty line and yet I give much of it away thanks to personal frugality. Bernie is one of the least affluent members of congress despite 30+ years of public service and a wife who was the president of colleges. We are not all motivated by money. Dennis Kucinich had a net worth that probably would have put in in a class with the lowest 1-2% of Alaskans.
