While Hillary Clinton has spent the presidential campaign saying as little as possible about her ties to Wall Street, the executive who some observers say could be her Treasury Secretary has been openly promoting a plan to give financial firms control of hundreds of billions of dollars in retirement savings. The executive is Tony James, president of the Blackstone Group.

No, that’s not what “we’re” talking about.
No, I donated to Trump 3x, have 3 Trump bumper stickers on my car, have been tapped to stand with Trump sign outside of a
NH polling place on Nov 8th, and plan to pray w/o ceasing for Trump before then. I was posting this just for the fence sitters to nudge them to sanity. ;-)
That's what will happen in a Hillary administration, Sparky.
And you can talk all the "We're" you want. This is not your forum.
The real owners are the big wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions. Forget the politicians, theyre an irrelevancy. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You dont. You have no choice.
You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own and control the corporations. Theyve long since bought and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the statehouses, the city halls. Theyve got the judges in their back pockets.
And they own all the big media companies, so that they control just about all of the news and information you hear. Theyve got you by the balls. They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying lobbying to get what they want. Well, we know what they want; they want more for themselves and less for everybody else.
But Ill tell you what they dont want. They dont want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They dont want well-informed, well-educated people capable of critical thinking. Theyre not interested in that. That doesnt help them. Thats against their interests. They dont want people who are smart enough to sit around the kitchen table and figure out how badly theyre getting f***** by a system that threw them overboard 30 f******* years ago.
You know what they want? Obedient workers people who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork but just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shi**ier jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, reduced benefits, the end of overtime and the vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it.
And, now, theyre coming for your Social Security. They want your f****** retirement money. They want it back, so they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street. And you know something? Theyll get it. Theyll get it all, sooner or later, because they own this f****** place. Its a big club, and you aint in it. You and I are not in the big club.”
This country is finished.

PM’s, cash, useful tools and machinery and real estate.
All stuff I can touch with my own two hands.
But my GREATEST protection from all of this is faith in the Lord, Jesus Christ. If things really get bad, the rest of that stuff is what they call “cold comfort”.
$19+ trillion in retirement money is just too tantalizing a target for our “public servants”.
But, hey, at least the ‘refugees’ will get a roof over their head and three squares a day.
Like a fox guarding a henhouse. Like a wolve guarding the sheep. Like Bill Clinton guarding a sorority house...
Yep...the amount of theft she will do will make everything else she has done look like nothing. She gets in she will be the worlds richest woman, if she lives out her terms.
What are PMs? For dummies..

My prediction: she will die within a year.
I think you might be correct. Her no showing up in NY for that huge hollywood fundraiser spoke volumes. I mean huge stars showed up. She sent a video tape.
she loves the attention and the money. Why didn’t she show up. Not like she had to go far.
PM = Precious Metals. And I mean the ones you actually have somehow in your possession. Or, in my case, where I can get at them in less than an hour, with no human intervention other than my own effort.
The next financial crisis that they create or manufacture.
It’s Obamacare for your retirement accounts.
Alternatively, you can just set up a "charitable foundation" and donate all your money to it ... and pay yourself and your family members as the only employees. Sound familiar?
Trump needs to ask her during the debate, point blank ... “Do you intend to take people’s retirement accounts?”
She will lie, or course, but something can be made from whatever answer she gives.
Thanks!
This may be our only safe investment: “But my GREATEST protection from all of this is faith in the Lord, Jesus Christ. If things really get bad, the rest of that stuff is what they call cold comfort.
