John MacGovern: Don't demonize private sector that produces jobs & growth

MacGovern's attack on Sanders is veiled. On his campaign site, MacGovern writes that America stands at a crossroads. Down the first road is "the demagogic decision to demonize the private sector and the producers of jobs and growth in the economy, using the rhetoric of class warfare to seek to raise their taxes and increase the costly regulations that make their life more burdensome."
