Chelsea Clinton’s wealth can’t buy her class
NY Post ^ | 6-29-14 | Andrea Peyser

Posted on 06/30/2014 3:21:57 AM PDT by afraidfortherepublic

Chelsea Clinton, the former and potential future first daughter, has stiff competition for the title of Most Tactless Human. Greedy reality-TV creature Kim Kardashian is a contender. Chelsea’s mom, the once “dead broke” Hillary Rodham Clinton, might rank even higher on the scale of bad taste.

Chelsea, 34, has jabbered like an overeducated trailer-park habitué about her family’s No. 1 obsession — money.

The millionairess, pregnant with her and millionaire hedge-funder hubby Marc Mezvinsky’s first child, told Britain’s Telegraph newspaper this month that she’s made a strenuous effort to care about cash. But she just couldn’t bother with the green stuff.

“I’ve tried really hard to care about things that were very different from my parents. I was curious if I could care about [money] on some fundamental level, and I couldn’t,” Chelsea said. That wasn’t the most infuriating part.

“I will just always work harder [than anybody else] and hopefully perform better,” she said. Didn’t anyone teach Chelsea that it’s bad manners to show off?

Drag a million-dollar bill through a trailer park and this is what you get.

I sure would love to see the "official documents" filed on the $10 million condo purchase. The Clintons know every trick in the book.

The Clintons: estate taxes for thee but not for me
American Thinker ^ | 06/18/2014 | Thomas Lifson / FR Posted by SeekAndFind

Bill and Hillary Clinton are using perfectly legal, but complex and expensive legal strategies available only to the rich in order to avoid the estate taxes they have assured us are essential to fairness and economic justice. So much for the crusade against the 1% who are supposedly responsible for all the ills of everyone else.

Keeping Chelsea a wealthy member of the 1% is the apparent goal. Richard Rubin of Bloomberg report: Bill and Hillary Clinton have long supported an estate tax to prevent the U.S. from being dominated by inherited wealth. That doesn’t mean they want to pay it.

To reduce the tax pinch, the Clintons are using financial planning strategies befitting the top 1 percent of U.S. households in wealth. These moves, common among multimillionaires, will help shield some of their estate from the tax that now tops out at 40 percent of assets upon death.

The Clintons created residence trusts in 2010 and shifted ownership of their New York house into them in 2011, according to federal financial disclosures and local property records. (snip)

“The estate tax has been historically part of our very fundamental belief that we should have a meritocracy,” Hillary Clinton said at a December 2007 appearance with billionaire investor Warren Buffett, who supports estate taxes and is using charitable donations to reduce his eventual bill.

Making a target out of Chelsea Clinton simply because her mother is a Sleastack shows that some conservatives have sunk to liberal standards. She and her unborn child have not hurt anyone.

When she was a minor child she was off limits. When she chose to become involved in the fight she set herself up to be a target.

She is no longer a minor and no one is forcing her to spout of irresponsible drivel.

These people care about nothing so much as the accumulation of wealth and privilege. The two go together for the Clintons. You can give them all the money in the world and they will still want more.

Didn’t she say that on 9-11 when the towers were hit that she was jogging near Battery Park pondering the effect of the Bush tax cuts? And then it was found out she was nowhere near there?

Looking at that pic, that is Web Hubbells daughter without-one-single-solitary doubt, same exact mouth. Web was the sperm donor for the lesbian and Chelsea was the result. Everything about the Clintoons is an absolute sham.

Hey she picked the perfect city, New York where she can join all the rest of the rich liberals leeching off the hard work of illegals while paying taxes through the nose to support all the people unemployed because of it. “Wow, refurbishing my floor only cost me $2000, but my taxes this quarter is $450,000, wow I am getting such a deal!”

Her shoes in that picture cost about $1500,
so it’s good that she doesn’t care about money.

All her money still won’t buy her “class” or looks. She and her “What Difference Does It Make” mother are still the ugliest women walking.

She is wearing a rather expensive pair of shoes in the picture with the leather pants. Louboutins- which cost about $900 a pair. She does not care about money, yet will buy one of the most expensive shoes on the market.

Interesting that someone writing about someone else’s lack of class, would think and write about people who live in manufactured housing, that way, and use the word “crap” in her writings.

That must be the New Yorker version of class.

The only time you care about money is when you don’t have any.
