“Really what we are talking about is, what should the priorities be in America?” Sanders said. “Should they be more tax breaks for billionaires and millionaires, or spending huge amounts of money on the military? I don't think so. Nor do I think most of you think so.”

Sanders also addressed economic disparities and his vision for health care in America.

“With Bernie Sanders bringing his ‘Medicare for All’ campaign to Indiana today, it’s worth reminding him that America will never be a socialist nation no matter how hard he tries,” Indiana Republican Party Chairman Kyle Hupfer said in response to Sanders' visit. "Bernie’s plans are all the same: raise taxes, reduce freedom and sack future generations with insurmountable debt. To call his ideas a pipe dream would be an insult to pipe dreams.”

However, Sanders had differing thoughts on the subject as he stood up and exclaimed, “These are not radical ideas.”
