You won't believe how little Bernie Sanders pays in taxes!

Socialist turned Democrat Bernie Sanders released some of his past tax returns today and a few things jumped out at us.

For starters, this is all he pays in taxes?

Bernie’s effective federal tax rate: 13.4%

Bernie Sanders paid $27,653 in federal income taxes in 2014, a federal tax rate of 13.5%, according to tax return https://t.co/1xVpuphLQY

In other words, he’s exactly like Mitt Romney who President Obama said had a 14% tax rate in a 2012 attack ad:

Sanders pays the Mitt Romney effective federal tax rate. So much for paying your fair share of taxes. https://t.co/LrUeBq3StI

And this isn’t a shocker as socialists hate charity:

Sanders gave 4% of income to charity in 2014, per tax return

But check this out. Apparently, socialism means paying for Bernie’s meals and entertainment expenses:

Hillary Clinton made Bernie’s taxes an issue at the debate today and now we know why he was so defensive:

That sound you hear is Hillary Clinton cackling as she watches the Sanders bubble pop.
