Last August Sen. Bernie Sanders promoted a socialist rally against “corporate greed” that ironically was accused of ripping off Dunkin’ Donuts’ branding:
I grew up in a 3-and-a-half-room, rent-controlled apartment. I'll be damned if I'm going to let a handful of billionaires control this country.
I'm in Boston today to rally with @Teamsters President Sean O'Brien, and @afa_cwa President Sara Nelson. I hope you'll join us there. pic.twitter.com/RRepRZtV5s

Fast forward to this week, and the irony keeps on coming!
First, a little bit about Sen. Sanders’ new book that he’s promoting:
Senator Bernie Sanders’ new book, It’s Okay to Be Angry About Capitalism, is a progressive takedown of the uber-capitalist status quo that has enriched millionaires and billionaires at the expense of the working class, and a blueprint for what transformational change would actually look like.
Sanders’ anti-capitalism book is listed at $28, and if you want to hear him talk about the book in person you’ll have to dig a little deeper:
Sen. Bernie Sanders is holding an event at The Anthem in Washington, D.C. on March 1, promoting his new book "It's Okay to Be Angry About Capitalism."
Tickets are between $35-$95, and will be available later this week on… Ticketmasterhttps://t.co/PX8qE7ewL3

It’s real, and it’s spectacular:

This is just perfect:
I can’t help but wonder if you also need to show a photo ID in order to gain entrance.
You can watch him do it for free on C-SPAN…

Yep, there’s nothing like shelling out over a hundred bucks to listen to a socialist with three homes rail against capitalism and take home a copy of his book.
