MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) -- Presidential hopeful Hillary Rodham Clinton outlined a broad economic vision Tuesday, saying it's time to replace an "on your own" society with one based on shared responsibility and prosperity.
The Democratic senator said what the Bush administration touts as an "ownership society" really is an "on your own" society that has widened the gap between rich and poor.
"I prefer a 'we're all in it together' society," she said. "I believe our government can once again work for all Americans. It can promote the great American tradition of opportunity for all and special privileges for none."
That means pairing growth with fairness, she said, to ensure that the middle-class succeeds in the global economy, not just corporate CEOs.
"There is no greater force for economic growth than free markets. But markets work best with rules that promote our values, protect our workers and give all people a chance to succeed," she said. "Fairness doesn't just happen. It requires the right government policies."
Clinton spoke at the Manchester School of Technology, which trains high school students for careers in the construction, automotive, graphic arts and other industries. The school highlighted one of the nine goals she outlined: increasing support for alternative schools and community colleges.
"We have sent a message to our young people that if you don't go to college ... that you're thought less of in America. We have to stop this," she said. "Our country cannot run without the people who have the skills that are taught in this school."
Beyond education, Clinton said she would reduce special breaks for corporations, eliminate tax incentives for companies that ship jobs overseas and open up CEO pay to greater public scrutiny.
Clinton also said she would help people save more money by expanding and simplifying the earned income tax credit; create new jobs by pursuing energy independence; and ensure that every American has affordable health insurance.
You wouldn’t know how to win a campaign to save your life.
And pandering to rino idiots is not how to beat ratz.
I think you are on the wrong forum.
On your own society also means
government out of my business society.
this means hillary is advocating the government in you personal affairs society.
Price of gas, smokes, cable TV, etc...folks in fly-over see their bills rise and are ready for a change...
In other words the highly taxed and regulated segments on the economy, that is the ones the government has most control over (gas, smokes, cable TV) are rising fast. Meanwhile the less regulated parts of the economy prices are down, or amazingly have gone to zero.
First Hotmail and a few other web services provided something that used to cost hundreds of dollars a year for nothing. (BTW: lots of third world people without computers still have hotmail or yahoo accounts). Now we have free photo-sharing, free web hosting, free home-pages, etc.
The only part of the free market economy where the government isn't a big factor but inflation adjusted prices aren't falling is entertainment.
So, having observed this interesting contrast 'fly-over' voters are going to elect self-avowed socialists who will work to make more and more of the economy resemble the overtaxed tabacco and gasoline segments.
I thought the heartland was too smart to get suckered by a bunch of fast talking New Yorkers like Hillary and Rudy.
Guess not.
“There is a lot of anger outside FR and the Beltway over economic factors right now, and to ignore it and just sling names at the opposition is a big loser.”
“What economic factors? “
Low unemployment. High productivity. The stock market at all-time highs. The fact that you can get a 50” color TV at an affordable price. Stuff like that.
“Yep, good reason to be angry about our economy (rolling eyes). /s”
Actually, I think the media trolls for ‘malaise’ and the general insecurity people have in our dynamic, global economy makes many feel that their std of living could slip away.
Even though we are better off now than ever.
I’d rather be right and lose than be wrong and win . . . and catering to the whims of idiotic voters is a losing proposition in the long run.
She is attempting to overshadow her war votes. She has also revealed herself for what we have known for years. If America buys into this and if the amnesty deal goes through, we’re done.
He should get the new Donzi Hybrid. :^)
The harder I worked the more “fair” the world has always been to me.
That’s got to be the funniest thing I’ve EVER read. This comes from the family whose middle name is GREED. Is she going to set an example by sharing her wealth? Didn’t think so. Remember the tax deduction for used underwear. Probably all the sharing they’ll do.
They won’t be going back to Arkansas any time soon. Arkensas is not big enough for their egos. Face it new York; you’re stuck with them.

“I’d rather be right and lose than be wrong and win..”
Oh, so you are one of the voters who stayed home during the last congressional race, eh?
She what that got us?
Unfortunately, during the transition period, you will be paired with a very talented would-be musician who presently lives in the inner-city of Philadelphia and wears his pants around his knees. He has had access to your accounts and assets since yesterday as you have had access to his. Though actually, he has no assets or accounts.
Please keep us posted as to how things are going. Your joint prosperity will act as an inspiration to all of us who have had our doubts about Hillary's wisdom.
I must be screwed up. I never read the government policy on what’s fair or unjust. Am I going to jail?
“You wouldn’t know how to win a campaign to save your life.”
That is truly funny.
Does this mean I must "share" my spare bedroom with an illegal alien Z-visa worker rather than make him live in a crummy 3 bedroom trailer bunked up with 30 others?
If not, why not? That would surely qualify as being "all in it together", wouldn't it? Isn't my empty bedroom a "special privilege" sitting empty while others can use it - especially as we will need the extra unused room for another 100 million criminal invaders, um, slaves, uh, new voters?
Share? The Clinton’s have made millions, what do they intend to share that is theirs? I’m sorry I can’t read all the comments. My blood pressure goes up just by seeing her name.
It plays very well in today’s age. Very few people seem to understand simple economics anymore and the media has really done their part in ignoring how great our economy is performing. The only time you hear anything on the economy anymore is rising gas prices, housing problems, and “inequality”. And if this is brought up in a debate, Klintoon will scream about only the rich getting richer and oil profits that bankrupt the American people. I never believed our country could be destroyed from within, but its starting to look that way.
Let me see if I understand the stupidity.
We have a red hot economy on our hands. The ratz and slugs of the MSM have blown fart gas mightily to say that its bad.
So, instead of defeating that lie, we should embrace the lie, and tell stupid voters how we are going to fix this bad economy, that’s really a good economy, so that we can get those ignoramuses to vote for us.
So, the ends justifies the means (only a liberal believe that) and we just simply have to lie to the constituency to win elections.
Let me tell you what: I’ve been a republican trench worker for 40 years. Any imbecile who thinks you need to embrace a lie in order to win, is a fool and a charlatan and will end up in flames.

Boy ain’t that the truth.
