I found the article to be a muddle of theoretical/philosophical musings intermixed mixed with fairly rigid Big S and Big L word definitions sprinkled with a few speculative anecdotal "for instances".
For instance, the proposed tax on financial transactions being a probable depressant on "investing" - for one thing, unlike Mr. Trump, Sanders does not have the superpower to create laws unilaterally that will fix everything, and what are now his rather generically detailed proposals would have to be worked out in the sausage-making process, resulting, in a perfect world, of better crafted legislation.
In the real world, nothing will happen because of the sausage-making process, but at least we would be shifting a bit of our collective consciousness to the fact that much of what happens on Wall Street, that is now naively accepted under the rubric of "investing", might become better understood to be what it really is - a substantially rigged gambling game - harmful to a healthy and productive economy.
Sanders will get virtually none of his grand Socialist, or even democratic socialist, schemes enacted if he is elected President. Raising red flags about what Bernie would do to this country is another fantasy apocalyptical red herring meme, just when what we need is to break free of our ignorance.
I think of Bernie as more of a Socratic teacher who is trying to break down our crystallized cultural thought habits, including our stale definitions of words - like capitalism, liberalism, socialism - and bring us into a more open and solution oriented mode of understanding and addressing our rather yuuge set of problems.
