Bernie Sanders is the only socialist in Congress, and in 2006 became the first socialist elected to the U.S. Senate to represent Vermont.
He said this to Alan Greenspan, Chairman of the Federal Reserve, during a Financial Services Committee hearing in 2003: "The country club and the cocktail parties are not real America. You have defended over the years the abolition of the minimum wage and giving huge tax breaks to billionaires. But today you reached a new low, I think, by suggesting that manufacturing in America doesn't matter."
