Capitalism Uses Bernie For Crowdfunding Profit

Posted on February 26, 2016 by JeffKoeppel

Want to feel the Bern?

Now you can get a Bernie Sanders “action figure” by pledging $15 on Kickstarter.

It’s not a campaign sponsored site, however, the sponsor is FCTRY, small, Brooklyn-based product design studio.

They have already come out to support HRC, but will donate $1 from each sale to the Sanders campaign.

What would Bernie say about this mixing of capitalism and politics?
