Hillary: "Business Does Not Create Jobs", Washington Does
Submitted by Martin Armstrong via Armstrong Economics blog,
We have a very serious problem with Hillary. I was asked years ago to review Hillary’s Commodity Trading to explain what went on. Effectively, they did trades and simply put winners in her account and the losers in her lawyer’s. This way she gets money that is laundered through the markets – something that would get her 25 years today.
People forget, but Hillary was really President – not Bill. Just 4 days after taking office, Hillary was given the authority to start a task force for healthcare reform. The problem was, her vision was unbelievable. The costs upon business were oppressive so much so that not even the Democrats could support her. When asked how was a small business mom and pop going to pay for healthcare she said if they could not afford it they should not be in business. From that moment on, my respect for her collapsed. She revealed herself as a real Marxist.
Now, that she can taste the power of Washington, and I dare say she will not be a yes person as Obama and Bush seem to be, therein lies the real danger. Giving her the power of dictator, which is the power of executive orders, I think I have to leave the USA just to be safe.
Hillary has stated when she ran the White House before regarding her idea of healthcare, “We can’t afford to have that money go to the private sector. The money has to go to the federal government because the federal government will spend that money better than the private sector will spend it.” When has that ever happened?
Hillary believes in government at the expense of the people. I do not say this lightly, because here she goes again. She just appeared at a Boston rally for Democrat gubernatorial candidate Martha Coakley on Friday. She was off the hook and amazingly told the crowd gathered at the Park Plaza Hotel not to listen to anybody who says that “businesses create jobs.”
“Don’t let anybody tell you it’s corporations and businesses create jobs,” Clinton said.
“You know that old theory, ‘trickle-down economics,’” she continued. “That has been tried, that has failed. It has failed rather spectacularly.”
“You know, one of the things my husband says when people say ‘Well, what did you bring to Washington,’ he said, ‘Well, I brought arithmetic,’” Hillary said.
I wrote an OpEd for the Wall Street Journal on Clinton’s Balanced Budget. It was smoke and mirrors. Long-term interest rates were sharply higher than short-term. Clinton shifted the national debt to save interest expenditures. He also inherited a up-cycle in the economy that always produces more taxes.
Yet she sees no problem with the math of perpetually borrowing. Perhaps she would get to the point of being unable to sell debt and just confiscate all wealth since government knows better. Their job on keeping Ebola out is just fantastic so far? Just a few people popping up here and there. Maybe everyone from New York should get a free weekend to visit Washington.

America is Over.
The fact this perverted Lesbian can murder Americans and Foreign heads of State with an hysterical laugh are all you need to know. She is Insane.
And one of your Parties will nominate her?
.
Redundant perhaps?
This lady needs to have more than her head checked. she's openly practicing eugenics, she's like a flapper who never got rehabed, a mother with no borders, and a monster with no morals. Rid the country of these politicians, because they actually deserve it.
.
LOL! Jeebus, that is a keeper.
God bless America - we will need it. May be not even God can save us from these politicians and the tribe.
Can....and will.
...and it's going to be impressive.
God don't intend to save you. He gave you free will for you to save yourself. If you get busy He might lend some secret help.
Reminds me of ICE-T song

The comfort you demanded is now mandatory.
Be happy.
At last everything is done for you.
I suspect that some of her fanatical socialist rhetoric is intended to put the fear of God into Big Money and the private sector in general, so if/when she becomes POTUS, they will be more compliant with her demands and agree to close ranks with her government to create still more corporate fascism, as if there isn't too much already.
She should take a look at Cristina in Argentina to see how that works out.
The woman's out of her mind.
Who cares about Hitllery? By the time she gets into office the dictator Obama will have the world at war, destroyed our military, watch as nuclear bombs become the norm in third world countries, implement the NSA as the Obama SS to watch all dissidents in other political processes, begin police state tactics, implement crony capitalism in all US corporations, complete national gun registration (confiscation), completed the process of nationalizing 40 million illegal aliens as the next wave of democrat voters, begun the nationalization of oil resources to be run by the government and confiscate middle class bank and 401K assets to pay down the debt…. to name just a few…
Vile, pandering, ruthless, corrupt, evil bitch.
Now everyone knows some dumbfuck political strategist has told her...You need to head off Senator Elizabeth (1/32nd Cherokee) Warren on your left by saying something ridiculous like “Don’t let anybody tell you, don’t let anybody tell you, that uhh you know it’s corporations and businesses that create jobs.” but to have the thoroughly braindead leftist audience eat the shit up, points to how easily people can be led around by the nose.
It was only a couple of months ago that she said she left the WH "dead broke", which of course, was another lie meant to push the "Pity The Poor Abused Woman Button of the left because a corporation had just advanced her millions of dollars for her stupid book no one but the left bought, oddly enough, from a corporation...a business.
She does this shit all the time and these stupid leftwing fucktards eat it up.
My personal favorite was directed toward a leftwing black audience, when in her perfectly nasal, elite pasty white, Mid-Western dialect, she attempted to belt out "I ain't no ways tarred. I've come too fawrerer..." trying to imitate the southern black dialect of the original author. The leftist blacks ate it up. Why they weren't outraged by this mocking/pandering gesture on her part will be a life long mystery to me as it either implies they are too stupid to understand what she had just done to them or one of the two (the audience or her) enjoy absolute fakery and/or abuse.
But lets step into the WayBack Machine and enjoy some other Hitlary oratory jewels:
"For goodness sakes, you can't be a lawyer if you don't represent banks."
"I don't recall."
"My good friend Chris."
.
And those are her more positive attributes.
Like Eboma, she attempts to portray herself as some sort of magnanimous technocrat, busily moving the levers of government to benefit all, when really all they are doing is committing rape to satisfy the selfish desires of themselves and their cronies.
"We are going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good." - Hillary June, 2004.

What a mental case...
Putin/Ventura 2016.
Disinfect ZOG and Rebuild America.
Well I am Candian so although I don't really give a crap if she gets in as president, deep down I really do. Hilary is a savvy and dangerous predator that loves power. So did her hubby. They represent the worst kind of politicians that are available to choose from. That is why no one votes. They don't really care which one of the morons gets in (kind of like Canada). Anyone who really "is" a true leader would want no part of them at all. Greshams Dynamics in Politics so to speak. No one in their right mind would want to exist with this kind of crowd. If I was paid an enornous salary I would likely rufuse the job.
However as Americans I would be a little more cautious before not taking any stand against her. I think the sales of her book are a true reflection of what most people think about her. Simply put, "they don't care". She stands for whatever gets her the most power. In this case her stance on "the government will spend the money better than the private sector" simply appeals to the vast majority of participants in the US presently on government assistance (Which last tole I think was around 185 million). The fallacy is that most think they can't better their lives without the government not realizing that it was the government that caused most of these dependencies to begin with.
My own feeling on this issue is that to do nothing invites her in. I would be proactive in my approach to limit her influence and power. She is the proverbial "wolf" in sheeps clothing. I know there is not much choice. However to do nothing is also a mistake. Just my two cents.
Nearly everyone referred to in the media, corporate or government fields are not leaders, they are followers. No follower wants a leader underneath him and no leader will follow a follower, period.
one word... Cunt
Hitlery 2016 - There will be blood.
pretty sure she menopausal
Never send an insane lesbian skank foreign puppet to do a patriotic Americans job.
If this thing becomes president, its pretty much game over.
Well, it's "game over" anyway Bro but she would probably accelerate the process.
As bad as the dog eater is, Hillary would start stuffing the trains with people.
Private business has no need to create jobs because they can produce with the current level of employment.
Government creates jobs to keep the level of unemployment down normally through minimal wage or under employed mechanisms.
The former is capitalise the latter is socialist so what kind of society is this? A half cross mongrel breed that ends up with a capitalist system feeding off a socialist body of people.
Nice to see Clinton coming out on the socialist side although all her mannerisms are capitalist so likely she is one of the wolves that needs sheep to feed upon.
Say no to totalitarianism.

In Calif, those of us who pay utilities on line now must go through Chase bank approval, whether we bank with them or not. You are instructed to go into the Chase website through the link and put your banking information into their system, like a clearing house.
TBTF Banks in the USA have never been more disagreeable to do business with for the peasants and paupers. No loans for you.

dean of Prior Lake, MN on Oct. 16, 2014 Satisfaction Rating1/5I am a (former) customer and (former) shareholder. The business practices of chase's employees including their managers are mind blowing. Calls are never returned, problems are not resolved due to lack of knowledge and ethics. It is dangerous to have one and the same person as the ceo and chairman of the board. Looking at all these complaints that are of similar nature, I am glad I sold my stock.....
Bassam of Anaheim, CA on Oct. 3, 2014 Satisfaction Rating1/5I closed my personal and business account. I tried to deposit $500.00 cash to help my brother, they refused. They said I cannot deposit cash for someone else!!! WHAT?! The manager claimed that they need to make sure it's clean money!! He suggested that I purchase a money order from them and then deposit it in his account!!! How will that make my $500 clean money?!! This bank has so many policies that's nonsense at all, plus all the fees and bad service... That's why they always offer $250.00 to open new account...

Betsy of El Paso, TX on Sept. 25, 2014 Satisfaction Rating1/5We have only been with Chase for about a year now and have had nothing but bad experiences with them from trying to transfer money on a Sun. And no one calling me back on that situation after personally speaking to someone and saying they would get back to me and now with Irma at the El Paso Texas branch who is incompetent or at least seems to be that way. She pre-approved us for a home in July and when we were ready to purchase a home it turns out that she did everything wrong from the very beginning. So when I spoke to her again she said she would run the numbers again and call me back on a few min. Well that was four days ago and I still have not heard from her. Very unprofessional!! I will be closing my bank account and will never refer anyone to Chase.
Living proof that not all terrorists wear a black mask and carry a knife.

United States Congress gives Benjamin Netanyahou 29 standing ovations.
“You know that old theory, ‘trickle-down economics,’” she continued. “That has been tried, that has failed. It has failed rather spectacularly.”
First off, that old theory has nothing to do with job creation. It states that if you give the rich more money through tax breaks that the resultant 'wealth' will trickle down through the economy. Forget that. The really rich don't create jobs. Entrepreneurs do, who want to become wealthier, leave footprints in the sand of time, or simply see their name in print all the time.
The really rich don't spend their money beyond living well, they use those pieces of fiat paper to buy real assets. Giving them tax breaks simply means that the rest of us pay for their increasingly bold asset grab, since someone has to pay the extra taxes.
We are what we produce. Jobs count. If .gov would get out of the way, leave a level playing field where lawyers don't feast on the blood and sweat of anyone who tries to build something, then economic growth would come - surely and steadily. There would be hiccoughs; it can't be avoided. But the end result would be better than where we are headed now.
We are what we produce. If you're not growing something, taking something out of the ground, or creating something that people actually want - then you're simply supporting the efforts of those who do, and your well being depends on them. You have to be pretty dense to realize this. Even Henry Ford, an avaricious capitalist if there ever was one, when asked what he would pay his workers said "Enough so that they can buy my cars"... We are what we produce.
If there were no fiat, then it would be patently obvious that we are what we produce since every day we would have to take our production and exchange it for the survival basics of water, food, and shelter (including clothing).
If you're not growing something, taking something out of the ground, or creating / building something that adds value to (let's say) society and our well being, then your livelihood is dependent on those who do. It is the heights of insanity to support anyone who is not in favour of making the endeavours easier for those who take something out of the ground, growing something, or creating /building something. You'd have to be stupid to handicap the real economy.
.Gov doesn't create jobs. It destroys real economic growth, cloaks it in illusion of growth, and lets the real assets trickly sureptitiously into the hands of the "1%". It is a collective sociopath that will do anthing to ensure its continued existence and growth - like any cancerous organism.
Trickle down is purely a big government concept. No free market capitalism based economy "gives" millionaires and billionaires money either directly or indirectly, they earn it fair and square. Only a statist pig cunt like Clinton would associate a crony communist policy like "Trickle Down" to "business", fucking cunt.
Should be "You have to be pretty dense to NOT realize this" in the 4th para. after the quote. sorry.
Henry Ford was a fascist.
As a business owner, this is offensive beyond anything else. Running a business is hard enough, and the govenment only makes it harder.
if this quote is true, I think it is by the way..one only needs to talk to senior .gov staff (those in my family and others I kn ow from DEA and Dept State) and the idea that .gov is the source of wealth in America is commonly held by them - not even debatable idea- they all think this way. She is the face of .gov.
.gov is certainly a source of wealth for millions of people. It is the other hundreds of millions that are getting fucked. Problem is they have bought at least 50% of the populous. Mother fuckers....
*.gov are corporations after all.
If the voting mechanisms in this country are only 1/100th as rigged as the markets are, bitch hitlery will be president and we are all fucked.
Unfortunately it is worse than that. No matter the lever you pull, the same people are really in charge.
That statement is even more blatantly marxist than "you didn't build that."
For the fiscal year just ended the fed gov't took in a RECORD $3 TRILLION in taxes but the economy is still a disaster.
Puts the lie to her stupid comment.
Double taxation without representation is the Democrats motto.
TYLER'S, THE PRUDENTIAL ADS. REALLY????
EVERY TIME I GO TO A NEW PAGE I GET THE PRUDENTIAL AD. AS I TRY TO CLOSE OFTEN TIMES ACCIDENTALLY CLICKING ON IT OR SOME OTHER AD. THIS IS NOT HELPING ANYONE.
THANK YOU!

Better yet, AdFender covers all browsers etc. and free also... Honestly, I never knew this site had any ads thanks to it.
Click Fraud. Why really deceive each other by means of popularity. We know who goes to what website. Why not just have a website dedicated to ads. Maybe I want to see some ads once in a while but not on the site.
You can have the internet but next thing you know these providers we will be subjected to looking at ads when we are browsing like in the middle of television.
Time is an illusion - there is no future or past.
Thought I was the only one with this problem.
They pay per click. If everyone here clicked on the ad but bought nothing, it would cost them a fortune.
Apparently, she didn't get the message during her last election campaign attempt.
Anyone who didn't immediately turn their back on her and walk out deserves what they get. Unbelievable someone could actually stand up and make such a comment on the national stage. What an absolute perversion of the beliefs our country was built on.
You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave!
This explain why USA is so aggressive against Putin and Russia, who has about 15% Flat Tax..... USA turning kommunist - Russia turning capitalist. World has turned.
Russia is nowhere near capitalism. Russia is still largely government and what little you may think is capitalism is crony capitalism which is as much about capitalism as government intelligence, is brilliant.
Crony capitalism is what you find in the US at the moment. FED is stealing from citizens and gives to owners of financial assets. Still 15% flat tax in Russia , even if government i Russia is too big. Before sanctions is was a country full of entrepeneurs, and foreign investment. Western sanctions have provoked retaliatory measures making the investment environment i Russia unsecure. In that sense sanctions are working, scaring away foreign investment from Russia. in reality Russia and EU was on track to cooperation, now destroyed by EU/USA involvment in Ukariane. Winner? USA of course, since a strong Europe and Strong Russia is seen to abe a bad thing for USA. That's it.
She is mostly correct.
Business isn't in business to create jobs. The point is to provide profit to the owners. Jobs are a byproduct.
If you were in the business of creating jobs you would do everything as inefficiently as possible. You would create beaurocracies whos sole purpose is to shuffle paper from here to there with duplicated and irrelevant processes. You would use manual labour instead of machines. You wouldn't create shovel ready jobs. You would create spoon ready jobs.
Spot on. The big problem is that for the free market to work, it must be impartially supervised with a level playing field, so that one business doesn't have an unfair advantage over another. Because of all the cronyism, there is no fair trade or fair business practice, and big business becomes a concentrator of wealth. The remedy of big government makes it even worse, because government contributed to the problem in the first place.
Jobs are a byproduct result of the pursuit of making money. But jobs aren't created by Washington either. They are either the byproduct of of a government program desiged to build votes and pay off campaign contributors with a sweet contract or they're dead weight jobs desiged to transfer tax revenue out of the pocket of the people to the pockets of public union members.
Yes, that would be called welfare.
On Hilary's Planet Marxism Business is there to be taxed so she and her followers can have a lifestyle and power.
Your observation describes almost peferctly the old Soviet Union.
You're describing govt to the 'T'.
Why did this get so many down votes?
Most only read the first 4 words and hauled ass. He is mostly correct.
So, is slavery a good idea? No, I doubt anyone here would agree too slavery.
But leading up to the Civil War, the argument was, " we can't survive without slavery"
Now the argument is, "we can't pick our veggies without immigrant labor"
" we can't process chickens without immigrants"
" we can't do construction without immigrants"
" we need cheap(er) Chinese products, Mexican products"
Shut the border. Make immigration a controlled exercise. Get the voter roles cleaned up.
Excise tax cheap products made in other countries that don't have to abide by the same administrative and environmental bullshit we deal with.
Tell me, if "coal" is so bad to use here, why is ok for China or India to use it to make steel, and export it to us , undercutting domestic manufaturers?
Ok Obama, you big environmentalist, grow a pair and slap excise tax on shit made in other countries without our rules. It's the same atmosphere we all share, right? Phony fucks.
dammit, spelled bureaucracy wrong.
you are a simpleton and a dumb fuck...

“You know, one of the things my husband says when people say ‘Well, what did you bring to Washington,’ he said, ‘Well, I brought arithmetic,’” Hillary said.
The Arithmetic of O'Brien in 1984 2+2=5 Common Core.
Tax paying jobs pay for the Government Jobs, More tax raised then more Government jobs can be created (Hilary Marxist planet). More taxed raised means higher taxes on Jobs. More Tax means less profit. Less Profit means fewer Tax paying jobs. Fewer Tax paying jobs means less tax. That should mean Less Government jobs (on our Planet). In Hilary's Marxist planet it will mean Higher taxes on the fewer jobs and a feed back loop to destruction.
The government did create a lot of jobs shipping up cocaine to Mena Arkansas back in the late 80s.
The government did create a lot of jobs shipping up cocaine to Mena Arkansas back in the late 80s.
It's interesting that one would find Hillary's statement so offensive NOW. Obama has been on the job for 6 years and absolutely believes the Marxist line, and acts accordingly....and and says the same drivel. The answer to Hillary would be a principled argument defending a healthy and expanding economy driven by private investment in a free economy....free of government. I am sure the folks here disagree and would prefer the new paradigm, some third fukin way or some bs. Yep, it's a war and they are winning, observe the fact she and Obama can say such things and fawning crowds of parasites bob thier head. Hillary blows, Obama blows. America loves the parasite lifestyle. We are feeding off of our grandkids and our reserve paper. Slow down the presses and watch the joke implode.
Not me.
I didn't order none of that shit and I don't take any free shit either.
It must be you guys.
Have a heart with Hillary. She's no Marxist (BTW, by what he writes, the author wouldn't know a Marxist if he was bit by one and just uses the word as some vague insult that more or less means 'leftist scum' to him). She's just a pure Ivy League product: no imagination, no ideas, no knowledge of real life, not even any understanding of the words "can't afford" when they apply to people's purses.
On the other hand, she can read reports, and they don't look good. America looks more and more like a failed state. If it didn't keep artificially raising its debt ceiling, it would have defaulted a long time ago. There is no job creation (no, the businesses do not create jobs, they outsource them and when they can't, they employ the cheapest possible immigration workers), no jobs mean low taxation income when there are gargantuan state spendings (America alone makes for 40% of the world's military expenditure, for instance. Add in the massive costs of the NSA, for another example), the dedollarization is afoot, and so on and on.
So, what she does is try to imagine ways to patch things up for the system to carry on just a little bit longer. One vague solution is, yes, to create phony jobs though public expenditure. It's been tried elsewhere, doesn't work, but when has that stopped an Ivy League-made politician? Tons and tons of useless civil servants paid for by heavier taxation... and what else can she do? Force the American Corporations to keep the jobs at home and properly pay their employees? How? The neoliberal economics of America, the predatory capitalism that rules it don't allow for more flexibility.
Failure is failure. Sometimes, there is no good solution but start afresh, something no American politician will dare if he wants to live.
Need more lipstick.
Most new jobs in this nation come from small business. Even liberals know this to be true. While businesses aren't in the business of creating jobs for the sake of creating jobs, neither ought to be the government. The government more often creates jobs just to pay off the public unions for their campaign support. Creating jobs is a natural result of expansion while in the pursuit of creating profit. All business doesn't outsource. That's a progressive lie. But its the US government that is responsible for a larger and larger number of jobs that are outsourced. Its done through over-regulation, the NRLB, far too much taxation, and an open border. As the federal government spends an ever larger portion of US income each year, private jobs will disappear and not come back. Much of Europe has already arrived at this juncture.
"Most new jobs in this nation come from small business".
Yeap. And if they want to make a nice profit, they'll employ some poor mexican sods instead of you.
You can't beat a profit seeker.
Not if Obama or Hitlary enforced the Immigration Laws ... you dumb fuck...
"Not if Obama or Hitlary enforced the Immigration Laws ... you dumb fuck..."
Re-read what I wrote instead of calling names people you don't know. I said "the neoliberal economics of America, the predatory capitalism THAT RULES IT", and you'll get why neither Obama, not Hillary, nor any other US leader who wants to stay alive will enforce the immigration laws you allude to. They are just spokespersons for the Corporations. And the Corporations want the cheapest possible labor force.
So you're the dumb fuck, darling. You live in dreamland if you think a leader can clean up America while keeping its same system. A rotten, inhumane system cannot be healed by a mere game of musical chairs at its top.
GREECE, THE SKIDS...
Firt it was "You didn't build that" now it's

New Game - No. Revolutions are manipulated and unwinnable in this age. Take a que from Soviet Russians and Ghandi's India. Sadly, becoming poorer is the outcome but one can make friends and still have some enjoyment while the old collapses.
There is a time to fight and a time to withdraw. Those are common battle tacticts. There is no shame in picking when between those two. The time to fight is over, the time to withdraw is now and preserve the ones you love to live to fight another day, post WW3 when the old order tries to re-emerge and be certain they will.

Sames goes for any of them, left or right, who got there by flipping stocks, lobbying government, dismantling what others have built, or other financial games.
Oh my! Mitt's not even worth a billion, and likely won't ever arrive either. He's basically just an investor now. But if you question the good of capital investment to the US economy, you're not even worth arguing with. You must be a young teen.
That is not trickle down economics. Hillary is the supporter of trickle down economics when she says the government can spend the money better. Trickle down economics is when the governmnet spends or gives money to connected big business and hopes their buddies will spend that money instead of keeping it. Trickle down economics is a government plan, not a private market plan. There is nothing wrong with making money or being rich. And the second you think there is, you might as well sign up to farm potatos on a collective farm while going hungry and wearing rags.
They're piling up money in offshore accounts and it's not circulating in the economy.
If you want people like Hillary to gain traction, keep feeding them ammunition.
That is not trickle down economics dude. And it isn't your fucking money. So don't worry about it. The problem is the government backed banking system hoarding money. It is the job of the banks to loan, not private citizens. Stop repeating moronic communist maxims. If the government was not threatening to steal everything, and the bankers were not getting paid not to loan because of the government, people would put money into banks and the banks would loan it. That is how banking works. The current problems are due to government interference.
Holding savings to turn it around as loans to others is not how banking works. At least not in today's day and age.
I agree. Idle simply means sitting in gold, art, fallow unused land etc. By definition, if the wealth is not liquid or not in productive assets, it is idle.
I wouldn't extend that to all rich people, just old money. New hungry money is what drives the productive economy.
How the Hell does money sit in art and gold? Can you explain that nonsense? When you buy gold and art, you spend money. I really find it hard to believe there are two different idiots, with fake random letter usernames, who are both this stupid.
you are a dumb fuck...
HILLARY-UOS
Trickle down economics is when the government spends money on big businesses and gives them money. It is not a private sector operation. You'd think she would at least get that right.
Wrong.
Trickle down economics was about giving tax breaks to the very wealthy and thus they would spend it on starting/enlarging businesses which would hire more people.
What the very wealthy did instead was buy stocks and bonds.
America's problem is you have been railroaded into a false dichotomy. Left vs right as if the reality of human existence can be represented by that choice. This is quite deliberate btw, giving people a false placebo choice keeps then quiet and happy.
Here's the truth. Politics is multidimensional, it is not one dimensional left/right paradigm. However TPTB find it much easier to provide placebo voting and control the real machinery in the background.
If you vote at all, if you press the placebo button, you are complicit , you are validating the installed system and change will never happen. Or at least not the changes that you might be interested in.
If you don't vote at all, you're also voting for the current status quo.
No. The status quo is maintained by voting.
You already know that voting doesn't work. It's a placebo.
s/don't//
If you vote, you are giving legitimacy to the scam. The status quo does is not affected by a reshuffle of the actors who play politicians on CSPAN.
When voting is totally nullified----except for the really really uinimportant cultural degradation, epitomized in a tiny minority who put Gay "marriage" in the 366/24/7 narrative, as if this it's the most important thing to pass Congress in our history, voting or not voting has zero effect.
Until we are able to vote for or against Lobbyists, who hijacked the democratic/republican government we one time enjoyed in this country, all other votes are useless.
So stop with the accusations that those of us who know what is really going, are somehow contributing to the status quo.
The status quo will remain status quo no matter how you vote.
There should be a hundred thumbs down for the naivete displayed by those of you who think the vote, by anyone, actually matters.
This is about as retarded as the USSC decision that not engaging in interstate commerce is a form of interstate commerce.
Sheesh.
Well, since we are now fascists, she's probably right
Killary for president. Seriously. The $hip i$ sinking, no matter what, so why not have a main culpable at it's helm?
In general it does not sound good however there are no details of what she means. If she means to go back to the tax rates in the 50's with a top rate of 90% for those at the top 5% of so I would not have a problem with that.
I'm sure she meant that. Go cast your ballot for her. When she grabs those taxes to fund an invasion of Africa and a nuking of Iran you can celebrate.
If Republicans can't beat that statement they will be done and a third party will emerge after 2016.
Surely her people will spin this today. I couldn't believe a major political figure like her would not only denigrate private enterprise on the whole but trash capitalism too in one fell swoop. If this is the prevailing political wind, we are truly screwed.
One might argue that Obama said the very same words and nothing has happened to him on the subject of his Marxist thinking. Granted now everyone sees what a worthless president he now is but it never hurt him during the re-election process. Imo these people that follow Saul Alinsky and Hillary is one of them have nothing to worry about because the mainstream media in this country will always have their back until it all implodes as civil war erupts.

I call this severe malpractice of capitalism -- might you agree?
Republicans need to disappear. Worthless, shiftless fellow-traveling fucks.
how abot the fact that business / not government has been creating 200,000+ jobs per month under an anti capitalist, high tax, obamacare, EPA, IRS, HHS, INTERIOR dept, State Dpet anti pipeline anti drilling environment. the only thing govt created was SOLYNDRA and SIGA which got a no-bid open ended ebola contract over the ZMAPP company ... and didnt produce anything (Ron Perelman big obama contributor just like the Solyndra guy)... Sure Hilary woudl love the $$$ to go to the government because underneath it all THEY ARE EXTREMEMLY JEALOUS OF SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE, ENVY THEM AND CANT MAKE ANYTHING USEFUL ON THIER OWN...
Hilary is a commie just like obama... just like Warren and the rest of the wacky looney left....
Problem is the vagina-vote, illegals, blacks and all the other parasites and crony-capitalists will vote for them....
So every vote is really IMPORTANT .......
the Benghazi special operators will be all over her like stink on shit .... with the TRUTH ..... brennan has tried to keep the lid on with high frequency polygraphs and threats....... but it will blow off around eleciton time.... the nazi obama regime will loose holder and special prosecutors will reveal the TRUTH.......
We can only hope.
Another false claim by this witch. D.C., states, and municipalities RESTRICT business via licenses, fees, regulations. NOT saying some regulaiton isn't required but cronyism has killed the so-called American dream (which is NOT solely about housing).
Reading through comments on a hillary piece is a real pleasure.
I find there is no way I can trash the bitch that has not already been done in spades. (Oops, did I say bitch???)
hey Bill, stick your dick in the bitch's mouth so she shuts the fuck up for a change.
can you do that Bill?
Seems you've hit a nerve Mrs. Clinton.
Well no wonder so many people are out of work.
Hillarhoid: The Pain-In-The-Ass that Keeps On Giving.
Christ, I'd hate to think what "Rod-ham" suggests.
1980 was the last time that the "angry white man" rose up in revolt to unseat the liberal majority at the presidential level. 1994 was the last time this was done at the congressional level. Chris Christie has the personality and political views which could galvanize the white male vote again. And there are enough minorities and women who are concerned enough by Hillary's tyrannical demeanor that the rebellion at the ballot box could happen.
To protect Hillary and to project her (s)election to the Presidency as the ultimate triumph of women over men, the mainstream media will gorge us with innuendo and "concern" over Christie's temperament and inexperience, while stuffing the channels with fluff about the history of the struggle by long-suffering women against the exploitive and domineering white men. This worked in 2008 for blacks and Obama against McCain.
In 2012, when the Romney camp intimated to Christie that he would be considered more favorably as a vice-presidential candidate if his "Jewish" credentials were improved, Christie did his much publicised "Aliyah" to Israel. There he did the obligatory photo shoots: wearing a kippa at the temple wall and the holocaust memorial, making a pro-Israel speech, and shaking hands with Netanyahu. But Christie didn't get the nod from Romney; and he has expressed resentment that he went through that process of groveling and humbling for nothing. Like Ron Paul, Christie may be "de-selected" by the Jews, because he didn't display the proper level of enthusiasm and joy while going through the process.
Statist Christie would never galvanize my vote even if I were voting. He is not nearly as corrupt as Hillary Rodham, and he would be slightly less likely to nuke Iran...but that's not enough for an endorsement.
Christie is not "like" Ron Paul.
As a long-time businessman and employer, I can say she's right, somewhat.
Let's say I have a successful tech support company. My company has grown so much that I need one employee. In order to handle the paperwork, filings and fiat impoundings, I need to hire an additional human so that my core business, me, is never diluted.
So Cunton is right: I create "job" through sweat and innovation, Washington creates "jobs" through its onerous and unfriendly nature.
Fuck all of them and their parasitic mentality.
Yeah, right! The government is sooo good at spending money that it buys $720.00 toilet seats! I wish I was that smart; I can only get one for $20 at Home Depot....
Ahh the good old days.... When an expensive toilet seat was the reigning example of government waste..... Peanuts by today's standard....
My neighbor's sixth cousin makes $720,000,000 a week working for the government sitting at a computer screen for two hours a day twice a week -- she says these meaningful, high-paying career positions were created by Hillary Clinton's Public Sector Jobs Initiative. Click on this for a great Govt job:
hillarygovtleech dot guv.
long live the government jobmakers.......
i mean without government we would still be apes in da trees.....
I think you shld steer away from sayin that hillary was actually the president back then.
Soooo many fucktards that I've talked to over the years actually LIKED clinton..and think he did a good job. So to point out the fact that it was hillary runnin things will o ly give these fucktards more of a reason to vote for that old bag.
You CANT have a woman president of the US. The world doesnt take us serious as it is. And sooo many countries would laugh and disrespect us even more.
So Progressives claim to have brought arithmetic to Washington.
Her logical conclusion: everyone should/will work for government in the future because only government creates/created jobs.
But what happens when everyone is a net tax receiver (paid from taxes collected to only pay a fraction back to pay the salaries of other net tax receivers which would include everyone). Who will remain to be a net tax payer? Aah yes the businesses and corporation via the new Public-Private Partnerships.
mum, the new economics: all work for .gov, fed prints the debt, so no need for taxes- it is working right now with a mixed private public economy- that is the future they have found the magic philosopher' s stone..trillions in debt so what ?they can print more. of course the result is some living very very well and most of us far from the printing presses will not, this is the logical outcome of leftist policy. serf is over used but what better word for the the ave citizen who will still pay taxes not for revenue but for control - think rain tax in MD-taxes are now seen a methods for control the 0.1% are of course exempt think corzine..
Since arithmetic is truth and Truth is God, I can only assume she means she brought God to Washington which is obviously not the case. Lying bitch.
will merica even be merica by 2016? having serious doubts. moot issue being discussed...
Hillary has health issues. Under these circumstances, she will be granted approval by common core educational standards. Any retarded mut passes the grade.
If that were true, then the ever expanding power grab by the Feds over the past 100 years, should have us all working 3 hours a day and making a cool 250k a year.
What a fucking crock of shit! I guess it may be true if you're one of their special snowflake corporatist cronies though, in other words, the 0.001%.
Meanwhile, down here in realityville the noose grows ever tighter around our necks.
She's nothing but a fucking ivory tower carpet munching troglodyte....
re"Washington Creates Jobs"
This from some skank that's never made an honest dime and has been sucking off the Govt tit her whole life - and never had a real job that didnt involve legal chichanery (Whitewater etc), "trading" Cattle Futures at $100k a pop, selling trade secrets to China during the Clinton Admin - and then, to cap it off, making off with the WH furniture.
And that's not even the TIP of the iceberg!
THis broad has some nerve.
She worked harder than ever when she shredded all those files.
The state of ignorance and lack of personal integirty among the citizzens of America is unbelievable if they vote in Hillary.
The teleprompter won an election on lies. He conned the people.
This one is lying too, but in a way that makes Obama seem like a child.
The majority in America do not want to lose their couches, flat screens and I-things and they do not like the word work, I mean real work.
With all the unemployed in the great USA, why is it I see only Mexicans in the fields? Foreign accents manning call centers, Made in China on everything?
If Americans had what their fore fathers posessed, the Tea Party, OWS and other movements would not be trashed and the Constitution upheld.
America lost the first cold war big time. The big bad Commie regime that USA bombed the shit out of, converted to capitalism as communism didn't work and the USA is turning into Communism hell.
Keep on talking Hillary and Warren and Obama. We didn't build them, but it aint taking long for 'we' to destroy them either.
Easy come easy go, so will the couches, flat screens and I-things,
People like this possess WMDs?
Ahem...
When was the last time you hand dug a footing for a house?
Maybe I get tired of the "All Americans except me suck." posts only because I haven't done one in awhile...
But you still all suck.
I just haven't gotten to you yet.
A proud Couchtater-American.
I built two homes in my life the hard way. I worked in fields, pulling potatoes out of the ground, stacking bales of hay, fed animals and cleaned up after them.
I owned businesses and hired people.
When my business failed, I didn't get bailed out. I was pariah.
I started from the bottom more than once.
Keep your couch. I like who I be and have no use for sheep who are willing to jump off a cliff because dear leader said so. I will stand back and watch.
