Meet the Press interviews during 2018: on Budget & Economy


Bernie Sanders: People are sick and tired of growth of wealth inequality

Q: Do you believe it's jumping the gun to talk impeachment?

SANDERS: What you are seeing all over America--in my state and all over this country--is people trying to survive for 9 or 10 dollars an hour. They can't afford housing, they can't afford prescription drugs. They have no health care or they can't afford health care. They can't afford to send their kids to college. They're sick and tired of seeing the growth in income and wealth inequality. You must talk about those issues as well.
