Harris unveiled several radical policies on Friday such as communist-style price controls and subsidies for first-time homeowners.
Socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) praised Kamala Harris for unveiling a “strong progressive agenda” during her economic speech on Friday.
Harris in her speech proposed communist-style price controls on food, claiming she would help Congress pass a national ban on “price gouging” for food and groceries.
She also pledged to provide $25,000 in down payment assistance for first-time home buyers and to create three million new homes if elected.
Naturally, far-left Sanders was ecstatic over her proposals.
“I think given the fact she has been a candidate for only three weeks I think she’s doing really really well in a whole lot of ways. I think what she laid out today was a strong progressive agenda,” Sanders said on MSNBC’s “All In.”
“Obviously in the weeks and months to come, I think she will add more specificity to some proposals and she’s going to add to it. I have always believed that good policy is good politics. What she is talking about today is reining in the outrageously high cost of prescription drugs, that’s enormously popular and the right thing to do.”
“She’s talking about building 3 million units of affordable housing at a time when we have a housing crisis in Burlington, Los Angeles and everyplace in between,” Sanders continued. “We have to lower the cost of housing in America. She’s talking about ending medical debt so that a quarter of the people in this country who have cancer do not have to deplete their savings or go bankrupt.
“She’s talking about controlling the cost of groceries when we know there’s been massive concentration of ownership in that industry. They spike prices up and going after them is exactly the right thing to do and very good politics.”
Harris’ policy proposals are so radical that even the liberal media like CNN and the Washington Post condemned them, warning that price controls are a key feature of failed communist regimes.

“When your opponent calls you ‘communist,’ maybe don’t propose price controls?” reads the headline of the opinion piece by WaPo columnist Catherine Rampell. “It’s hard to exaggerate how bad this policy is.”

Harris’ policy platform is shaping up to be so radical that even fellow Democrats are urging her to keep them hidden until AFTER the election.
In other words, you’ll have to vote for Kamala to find out what she stands for — a signature Democrat tactic.
When Comrade Bernie Sanders is expressing enthusiasm over these policy proposals, once can be sure they’ll be extremely destructive to the American people.
