“In America today, we face an absurd reality in which 1 out of every 10 Americans is going without their prescriptions because they cannot afford the costs. The pharmaceutical industry is the most powerful lobby in all of Washington. Do you know what that means? If they decide tomorrow that they want to double, triple, or quadruple the cost of this or that prescription — that's perfectly legal. That is outrageous. In my view, it is time we do what virtually every other major country on earth does and negotiate the costs of prescription drugs. The American people are sick and tired of paying the highest prices on the planet for prescription drugs. It's time we put those days to an end.”

“There is something drastically wrong in America when the same political party that tries to take away Voting Rights, Civil Rights, Human Rights, Religious Rights, Social Rights, and Constitutional Rights encourages people to take up arms in the fear that “government” is taking away our rights.”

“Don’t let fascists have Satanism. Don’t let them take Black Metal. Or punk rock, Norse mythology, anime, video games, hipster beers, the streets. Nothing. Fascists steal cultures, infiltrate movements & try to creep into anything they can. Don’t let them have anything.”

“Does the Democratic Party have the guts?” (no):
“This is the issue: Does the Democratic Party have the guts to stand up to corrupt and greedy insurance companies that bankrupt 500,000 people every year? If we don’t have the guts to do that, if all we can do is take their money, we should be ashamed of ourselves.”
