Harris Touts ‘Opportunity Economy’ Plan in Pittsburgh Speech
American Conservative ^ | 9/26/2024 | Joseph Addington

Posted on 09/26/2024 1:16:11 PM PDT by whyilovetexas111

Vice President Kamala gave a major speech at the Economic Club of Pittsburgh Wednesday afternoon, laying out the approach to the American economy she intends to take if elected president this November.

Harris repeatedly emphasized her own origin, stating, “I grew up in a middle-class family,” and argued that her plan for what she called an “opportunity economy” would be best for middle-class Americans. Harris’s “opportunity economy” plan consists of three primary pillars: lowering costs, investing in American innovation and entrepreneurship, and leading the world in industries of the future.

She has no clue...

Voters have no clue what "opportunity economy" even means.

An opportunity to provide an opportunity for those who need an opportunity. When there is an opportunity, the opportunity will help us turn the page.

Somehow I think she means opportunity economy to mean sleeping with a powerful man twice your age to get jobs and fortune and power and higher elected office opportunity.

What does she know about the middle class? She has probably been in the top 10% (at least) all of her life.

This is just another idea she stole from Trump. He was the first, along with Tim Scott and others, to mentioned ‘opportunity zones’.

The woman has NO ideas of her own. All she does is copy others.

This brain dead woman doesn’t even know what she is saying means, she just parrots bs that she is told to say. But the sad truth is that IF America gets what it truly deserves, she will be the next POTUS. Pray that God will redeem the United States from what we deserve...

She is like a broken record of spoken words of meaningless innuendo.

And isn’t that a sad state of affairs. The dumbing down of the electorate has been one of their major achievements.

I take it as the opportunity to get a second job, pay more taxes, and afford fewer necessities.

But never say the meaning of how it’s a all BS story like Biden’s democrats keep beating the dead horse because they believe it never dies.

Gutfield says all she did was take the term Economic Opportunity (which IS a REAL thing) and switched the words to Opportunity Economy which is a NOTHING. The phrase has no meaning.

Her idea of an opportunity economy is a crime of opportunity.

Why doesn’t she start now and prove she’s up to the task?

Kamala Harris keeps promising all kinds of good things “when she is in-office.”

For some reason, nobody on The New York Times’s enormous staff of Ivy League journo-geniuses informed Ms. Harris that she is actually in-office......now......and has been since 1/20/2021.

Why the do-good candidate “for the people” did nothing for
us these many months is a dismal portent of a Harris presidency....

Not even a wedge of government cheese, for pity’s sake.

Here is how the "opportunity economy" has always worked:
On the coldest, darkest, rainiest day of the year, shake yourself out of bed. Get cleaned up. Go to work. Cheerfully.

Repeat as needed.
