Clinton Will Unveil Aggressive Economic Agenda That Targets Wall Street, High Earners

By EVAN HALPER

After months of running on broad themes backed by little in the way of actual policy proposals, aides to Hillary Rodham Clinton say that on Monday, she will announce a far-reaching plan to restructure the economy that would disrupt how Wall Street does business.

In what the campaign bills as a landmark speech at the New School in New York City, Clinton will offer a vision for growth that is notably different from the one her husband, Bill Clinton, pursued when he was in the White House and pivots off some of the policies of President Obama.

The agenda, written with input from some of the country’s most liberal economists, reflects not just Hillary Clinton’s effort to appeal to a Democratic party that has drifted leftward, but also disenchantment with the centrist economic policies she once favored.

It seeks to address what has become one of the key concerns of voters this election season: the failure of the economy to raise middle-class income. The problem has consumed policy advisors for both Republicans and Democrats, and strategies for solving it are emerging at the center of every campaign.

Then US Sen Clinton and then-Sen Jon Corzine.

Hillary does not seem to mind that US Sen Corzine was fresh out of Goldman Sachs executive suite.

Corzine came right from Wall Street to Capitol Hill.

Goldman Sachs bigwigs invested in her SIL's hedge fund---said to be poorly run by the WSJ.

How about taking all their money from singers, rappers, actors, actresses, politicians who make big money from speeches and money market manipulators and giving it to White guys who they forced out of the labor market?

Gee, is her tribe included among the high earners, or doex that just apply to people who actually perform a service or generate consumer goods?

Now let's talk about Bill and Hillary's marriage.

In Iowa, Hillary told of spending hours in her local
library on summer vacations when growing up.

Young, studious Hillary was also dreaming of her Prince Charming.

.......and then she met Bill........

Wearing a pig hat in Arkansas means something---but no one has yet determined what.

Voters should ask themselves if they want a man in a pig hat married to their president.

Arkansas Razorbacks also known as the Hogs, are the names of college sports teams at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, Arkansas.

Apparently, Hillary now believes she can win the presidency by adopting Bernie Sanders’s far-left policies.

But if that’s the case, why can’t Bernie Sanders himself win the presidency? He delivers applause lines much more effectively than Hillary; he’s not burdened by mountains of political baggage a la Hillary; and, unlike Hillary, he’s willing to meet with the press to get his ideas across and doesn’t keep reporters humiliatingly roped in like cattle at his media events.

I am stunned at how bad Chelsea looks in that picture. Maybe it’s because she’s facing the sun but she seems to be aging quickly.

Oh, okay-—but why would anyone want to wear one on his head?

Just to be cute I guess. He knew he was ‘cute’ and had charisma and probably got a lot of laughs out of it, lol. Your guess is as good as mine!

Good Idea! Let’s let Hillery decide how to “reconfigure” Wall Street. Like, what could possibly go wrong there? So what if she has all of the financial acumen of a pencil eraser. I’m sure she’ll make things “fair”.
