Hillarynomics: Clinton Blames 'Shorthand' for Gaffe that Businesses Don't Create Jobs
Breitbart - Big Government ^ | 10-28-2014

Posted on 10/29/2014 4:35:30 AM PDT by Sir Napsalot

Another day, another Hillary Clinton clean-up attempt.

After emphatically declaring last week that businesses and corporations do not create jobs, Clinton, blaming her poor use of shorthand, claimed on Monday that she was actually referring to her stance against "tax breaks for corporations that outsource jobs or stash profits overseas."

"I shorthanded this point the other day, so let me be absolutely clear about what I’ve been saying for a couple of decades: Our economy grows when businesses and entrepreneurs create good-paying jobs here in an America where workers and families are empowered to build from the bottom up and the middle out—not when we hand out tax breaks for corporations that outsource jobs or stash their profits overseas," Clinton backpedaled on Monday .....

"Sharing a drink with Hillary".

'Journalists' are, first and foremost, starf*ckers. They're obsessed with class, driven by envy and vanity. The entirety of their existence is governed by getting the most they possibly can with the absolute least effort.

No. Her original, “Businesses don’t create jobs,” statement wasn’t a lie. She actually believes that, as do her supporters.

Why do you think no one on FR was surprised when she said it?

A glimpse inside the fascist mind with business-suppressing government agencies, a punishing IRS gestapo and fascist-friendly corporations with interlocking board of directors with government officials.

Amy Althouse:

Like it’s our fault we don’t know what she meant. How many times does she have to tell us? She’s been talking so long — for a couple of decades — that we ought to know everything she has to say. We should be completing sentences for her... like a doting, faithful old husband.

It was not only the asinine comment she made, but she appeared to be under the influence of drugs when she made it….very strange.

Hillary's speaking from personal experience b/c Bill and Hillary have never held a real job---the two parasite suck off the govt (read taxpayers)...and have pocketed billions gaming the system for themselves..

The two leeches didn't have a pot to *** in back in Arkansas---didn't even own a home. But they are experts at gaming the "public service" system for themselves. The Clintons conniving has enriched them. They are now worth hundreds of millions of dollars.....and counting.

How did they make the money? In several ways.

(1) Bill's calculated moves w/ his presidential pen and official policies profited numerous cronies and entities.....who are now being hit up for donations to the three Clinton tax-exempt "foundations which they evolved into some 14 fund-raising mechanisms.....and to enrich Hillary.

(2) Bill's pardon pen was useful in pardoning diverse voting blocs which got Hillary elected to the US Senate as a prelude to her presidential ambitions.

(3) The Clintons game the system 24/7....

===============================================

Here's a peek at how the "dead broke " Clintons got their geedy hands on billions of dollars......b/c .being president and Secretary of State has an astoundingly good monetary return.

Hundreds of millions flow into the Clintons three tax-exempt foundations which the Clintons calculatedly morphed into hundreds of separate fund-raising machines.

The Clintons' recently formed "The Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Family Foundation" gives them even more fund-raising capabilities......w/ a friendly "family" aura.

Earlier, a NYT's expose chronicled the shady financing of the tax-exempt money machine----The Clinton Global Initiative foundation.

CLINTON GLOBAL INITIATIVE web site
you can peruse 276 web pages of obscure programs
all of them vehicles to raise money
all of them expecting payback w/ Hillary in the WH.

1271 Avenue of the Americas 42nd Floor
New York, NY 10020
212-348-8882

WEB SITE http://www.clintonfoundation.org/clinton-global-initiative

================================================

To whom are the Clinton beholden for their vast wealth....accumulated in a short time after they exited the WH, in Hillary's words, "dead broke"?

BACKSTORY When Billy, the Boy From Hope, burst upon the political scene as a presidential candidate....he duped the voters and coached his Arkansas Mafia friends to say, “Money doesn’t mean anything to Bill Clinton"........

Now we hear he got a hundred million dollars while his wife controlled the State Dept checkbook......monies that were meant for Haiti (the place where the Clintons spent their honeymoon). Plus hundreds of millions flowing into their tax-exempt foundations which the Clintons morphed into eleven separate fund-raising machines.

BETTER ADD THIS IN, TOO News reports say the State Department announced it has "no idea" what happened to $6 billion used to pay its contractors..... a special “management alert” warned “significant financial risk and a lack of internal control at State has led to billions of unaccounted dollars over the last six years....under Hillary's watch.

Becoming president has a pretty good monetary return. That poor boy from Hope, Ark, made over $200,000,000.00 (that we know of) as a “public servant.”

Clintons raised $2-3 billion in two decades
The Hill ^ | July 2, 2014 | Alexandra Jaffe / FR Posted by Cincinatus' Wife

Bill and Hillary Clinton raised $2-3 billion in the two decades they’ve been prominent on the national stage, according to the WSJ.

The Journal tallied the Clintons’ speaking fees, fundraising for their foundation and the sums raised for Bill Clinton’s two presidential campaigns for the DNC while he was in office and for Hillary Clinton’s Senate and presidential campaigns.

Between $1.3-2 billion came from U.S. companies and industry sources, making up at least 75 percent of the sum — more than the 60 percent industry sources contributed to the two Bushes’ political operations.

The Journal reports that if Hillary Clinton runs for president in 2016, as expected, she could return such donors to the Democratic Party, a source of concern for Republican fundraisers as they gear up for what’s expected to be the most expensive presidential election in history.

Overall, the Clintons’ political operations raised $1.2 billion, their nonprofit drew between $750 million and $1.7 billion and they made about $100 million in speaking fees. --SNIP--

=================================================

The figures are what THE CLINTONS ALLOW us to know. DOES NOT include (1) amounts secreted in numbered offshore bank accounts,(2) investment holdings, (3) safe deposit boxes holding coins, gold, valuables, etc, (4) other holdings in real estate, businesses, (5) rental, interest accrued, investment income, etc .....

The latest Clinton frown-line maker is that they are investors in "The Beast"----the freight train company bringing illegals across the border to leech off Americans.

There have been thousands of accusations of human rights abuse, and even reports of murder on the freight trains transporting undocumented migrants to the US border. The migrants have also reported train operators standard practice of extorting money from the passengers.

The trains used and involved in these accusations are publicly-traded companies, traded on NASDAQ, with "very influential stockholders", such as Clinton and Carlos Slim. Other stockholders include,T Rowe Price, Bank of America, and General Electric.

A real bummer is that these Mexican-originated transportation companies are involved in the Narco trade, and one report makes it clear that the companies are aware of the abusive practices their train operators are engaging in. The border swarm is all about human trafficking, narco trafficking, and government and corporate collusion.

NOT THE LI LIMITED---no running water and flush toilets
on those trains. How did the riders handle body wastes?

Coming to your communities, workplaces and schools.
Free ride---no bathroom facilities--courtesy of the Clintons.

I wish someone would point out what “tax breaks” accrue to corporations that move jobs overseas.

Anyone know ?

so let me be absolutely clear about what I’ve been saying

This phrase seems to be the fallback position of every moronic statement every stupid politician makes. Ugh...I cringe every time I hear "let me be clear" or some derivative thereof.
