Socialism is a profitable business for those who sell it to the masses just look millionaires and billionaires like Hugo Chavez, Fidel Castro, and Bernie Sanders.

The Vermont Senator crisscrossed the country speaking to millions of millennials that have been shafted by student loan debt, a bad economy, and over regulation that has crippled their ability at achieving the American dream. While speaking to their ills and preaching about how more socialism will solve all their problems, Sanders netted more than a million dollars for himself, reportedSeven Days Vermont.

His salary was drawn primarily from book sales, Sanders earned a $795,000 advance for Our Revolution and $63,750 for his upcoming childrens book Bernie Sanders Guide to a Political Revolution. He also made $9,256 as royalties for previous books and spoken word albums hes recorded.

Adding that to his $174,000 a year income as a U.S. Senator puts him at $1,052,000. Hes become the thing he hates one of the wretched millionaires and billionaires.

Things are not all rosy for the socialist Senator, he still owes a mortgage on two of his three homes, and his retirement account is only between$192,000 and $815,000.

Its really impossible to blame the Senator, a lot of people market themselves as something theyre not in order to make money. Sanders is no different, marketing a product that spoke to peoples needs, desires, and fears and laughing all the way to bank.

At least he proved one thing, socialism does work if you want to make money.
