Hillary Clinton’s big ideas for tanking the US economy

The latest spin out of Washington is that stock-market declines over the last 10 days are due to Donald Trump’s surge in the polls. Wall Street tends to hate change, even when it’s positive. And Donald Trump may be seen as a change agent who will rattle the cages in Washington, and perhaps on Wall Street.

But something else is being overlooked here: Hillary Clinton’s economic agenda and the financial markets.

Hillary says she has a cabinet full of ideas. Unfortunately, most of them are dimwitted. Here are five that could hurt employment, growth and stocks.

1) Raise the minimum wage to $12 or even $15 an hour. Clinton might as well call this the Teenage Job Elimination Act. Even the liberal Congressional Budget Office recently estimated a $12 minimum would reduce the number of starter jobs by as many as 1 million. Seattle recently raised its minimum to $11 and is headed to $15. An assessment by the University of Washington finds that so far that move had the “negative unintended consequence” of fewer hours worked and fewer jobs.

2) Hike taxes. There isn’t an economic philosophy known to man that says raising taxes will help the economy. But Hillary wants to give it a try, to the tune of $1.5 trillion sucked out of the economy.

The author here is missing one really, really important thing, the reason Wall Street wants Hillary has nothing to with her whatever tax and spend policies. Those policies affect small business and Main Street America. Wall Street can avoid the taxes anyway, even capital gains, by gaming the system in their favor - and that is the reason why they’ve bought the Clintons, to make damned sure they have an out in the system that Mom and Pop America will never have.

Secondly, they support Clinton because she is for the cheap labor underground economy, regardless of what she does with minimum wage - employment in America is not where Wall Street makes it’s money...it is employment overseas. Finally, she keeps printing cheap money...low or even zero interest rates and fiat money to the banks. This globalist system - fascist as it is - was created by Wall Street and the foreign equivalents of Wall Street because IT BENEFITS THEM. They couldn’t give a rat’s ass about Main Street America because they don’t make their money there.

The sad thing is they’ve rigged the system so effectively that the American people can’t shake off their tyranny.

Hillary’s trickle-UP economics and strange enablers
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3479811/posts

A FRiend recently pointed out that the opposite of ‘trickle down’ economics is ‘trickle up’.

How true!

In any banana republic [such as the ‘U’ SA] the tyrant tops the economic food chain — that’s where the economy trickles up. And sometimes the minions are even more dangerous, such as Obama’s ‘subordinate’, Hillary. View what she achieved already and then imagine her in the Oval Office [with her husband’s experience to guide her] ...

1. Watered down AIDS medication [*a*] which should come as no surprise after their ...

2. Tainted prison blood scandal. [*b*]

Anyone greedy enough to infect thousands of innocent people with blood tainted with AIDS and hepatitis is willing to profit from watered down drugs.

3. The Clintons helped their cronies steal billions from Hatian relief funding. [*c*]

4. Even Hillary’s brother, Hugh Rodham, is part of their ‘trickle up’ policy. He sold one of many notorious Clinton pardons to a big-time crack dealer:

“Hugh Rodham received a contingency fee ... In 1995, Vignali was convicted of masterminding a scheme to distribute 800 pounds of crack cocaine, worth millions of dollars, from Los Angeles to a narcotics ring in Minneapolis ...” [and Hillary’s brother sold that man a pardon] [*d*]

5. How ISIS is part of their ‘Trickle Up’:

Even worse is the Clintons’ ‘trickle-up’ Middle East policy. Has it ever struck you as odd that Hillary Clinton hates Assad more than ISIS?

In fact, Hillary shipped weapons to ISIS. [*g*]

Assad might be a brutal warlord but he’s a piker compared to ISIS — they eagerly gang-rape, torture, and enslave Christians. Assad is the reason why so many Christians had enjoyed relative tranquility in Syria [prior to ISIS]. His brutality was aimed at suppressing anarchy.

But Assad opposes a pipeline for Katar and Saudi Arabia. And wouldn’t you know it? Katar and the Saudis have poured millions into the Clinton Foundation.

So the Clintons wish to use US resources to enrich themselves and sell out the Syrian Christians to the ‘tender mercies’ of ISIS. [snip]
