From the front page of the Huffington Post:
“Hillary Clinton should make the moral case about power: for taking it out of the hands of those with great wealth and putting it back into the hands of average working people.
In these times, such a voice and message make sense politically. The 2016 election will be decided by turnout, and turnout will depend on enthusiasm. The largest party in America isn’t the Republican or Democratic Parties; it is the Party of Non-Voters, who have become so cynical about politics they’ve ceased voting.
If she talks about what’s really going on and what must be done about it, she can arouse the Democratic base as well as millions of Independents and even Republicans who have concluded, with reason, that the game is rigged against them.
The question is not her values and ideals. It’s her willingness to be bold and to fight, at a time when average working people need a president who will fight for them more than they’ve needed such a president in living memory.
This is a defining moment for Democrats, and for America. It is also a defining moment for Hillary Clinton.”
ROBERT B. REICH’s film “Inequality for All” is now available on DVD and blu-ray, and on Netflix. Watch the trailer below:
Taking it out of the hands of those with great wealth (like the Clintons?), and putting it back into the hands of acverage working people (like the Clintons?).
Is that how we're going to finally achieve the Clintonian dream of a world without profits? Won't that be a great thing for humanity?
How much longer do we have to listen these utterly meaningingless cliches every election?
