“”I prefer a ‘we’re all in it together’ society,” she said, a phrase that has a kind of quasi-socialistic ring to it, one in which the government would play a stronger role in running the economy and setting the rules by which it is allowed to operate.”

Sounds a bit like Chavez, early on. First, I don’t care what ANY elected official personally thinks about how society should be structured, and especially not one who could not pass the DC bar exam. Elected officials are servants, not victors, and should have absolutely no power to ‘restructure’ society.

Society, in the best sense, is what happens when free people organize themselves in a manner consistent with preservation of each of their unique individual identities. In addition, human compassion and charity always works better in helping the poor to be the great individuals they can be and to achieve happiness than does any kind of government dictated social policy. We certainly don’t need Sillary to save the world.

Well said.

Hillary has no inkling of the idea of limited Govt.
Her mindset is a socialist/welfare-statist core wrapped by the gauzy Oprahfied feelgood exterior.
