2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumBernie tax issue better have a better story behind it, if he wants to

The EB-5 program, supported by the State of Vermont and both of its Senators, Bernie Sanders and Patrick Leahy, offered foreigners the opportunity to invest between $500,000 to $1 million in developments that projected returns of 2% to 6% and a pathway to U.S. citizenship within two years.

I've learned a lot studying politics, and this particular election has been a real eye opener.
