KEENE, NH — Bernie Sanders filled the Colonial Theatre with hundreds of supporters at a post-Iowa Caucus rally Tuesday afternoon.
“Last night we came back from a 50 percent deficit in the polls. Last night we started the political revolution not just in Iowa, not just in New Hampshire, but all over the country,” Sanders said. “Together we are going to create an economy that works for working families and not just the 1 percent. …It’s about millions of people trying to get by on $9, $10, $11 dollars an hours,” adding that everybody knows that the minimum wage is a “starvation wage.”
“We are going to raise the minimum wage to a living wage, $15 an hour,” Sanders said.
Sanders also called out the Walton family, which owns Walmart, for making a profit on the backs of American taxpayers.
