Dream and made it. She, alone, will decide who can make it in America.

Noticing the Markings on the “catwalk Stage” that hillary was performing on I had to wonder whether they were part of the choreography for the event
#1 Stop 1 ...Diagonal line...
#2 Stop 2 ... White ‘Box”
hillary clinton...Americas First Trans-Human...”first lady”
I would bet the ranch that the audience was heavily screened to eliminate the possibility of booing or heckling during Her Royal Thighness' speech.
Notice that the crowd seemed to be more white percentage-wise than the NYC populace and that women heavily outnumbered men.
In a clear jab at the Ronald Reagan era, Clinton lamented that 'we were told if we let those at the top pay lower taxes ... their success would trickle down to everyone else.'
Liar, Liar, pants on fire! Reagan's tax cuts lowered rates across the board! And success in general did trickle down. (Same thing, BTW, with the JFK tax cuts, and - back in the 1920s - with the tax cuts of the Harding and Coolidge administrations.)
She can't help herself. Listen to the class warfare rhetoric from yesterday's speech; sounds like it came from Marx.
The rich paid more taxes at a lower rate, because their income was more accurately reflected on their returns, without phony shelters, and because they also made more money, and their investment mood became less risk averse. Jobs were created. Salaries increased. Consumers spent and had more things to spend on. This is not just Reagan talking. JFK believed in lower taxes for the rich, because ‘a rising tide lifts all ships’. Reagan and JFK right. Hillary left out in cold.
Yes, what you described is gist of "supply side economics." But historically, neither Reagan nor JFK were the first in American history to apply it. The credit for the "founding" of that ideology really belongs to Andrew Mellon, who was Secretary of the Treasury during the Harding and Coolidge administrations. Mellon's leadership in cutting of income tax rates twice during the 1920s spurred close to a decade-long economic boom. (Small wonder that Franklin D. Roosevelt's administration detested Mellon, and launched a big IRS case against him - which, BTW, failed from the government's perspective.) JFK and Reagan copied the idea and were successful in each instance.
Today's lefties, illustrated by Obama and HRC and just about every 'Rat in Washington, are into historical revisionism on economics, as they are with respect to many other policy areas. Historical revisionism has popular appeal only with a dumbed down population, which is why the 'Rat pack gleefully tries that as well at every opportunity.
“(Small wonder that Franklin D. Roosevelt’s administration detested Mellon, and launched a big IRS case against him - which, BTW, failed from the government’s perspective.)”
You mean, FDR had an enemies’ list? Surprise surprise.
‘I shop at Walmart________’
I did a bit of shopping this past Thursday at a Walmart 12 or so minutes from here. They are certainly user-friendly.
Was in search of those small match boxes - you can’t find them just anywhere. They went out with high button shoes. Along with diaper pins.
We have a large stove-top with 2 pilot lights that refuse to work. Techs came a few times years ago but the stove-top pilots would eventually ‘go out.’
I did find those match boxes at WalMart- in the sporting goods section.
They are waterproofed, for campers. Probably more expensive because of that. Then I checked our K-Mart sporting goods section - and they also had those matches.
I know there’s those long fireplace matches - usable in the kitchen when I ‘cut them down to size!’
Yes, we also use those Coleman utility lighters. . .
Of course all these matches & lighters need storage - all because the pilots don’t work anymore - - -
Our town has one of the remaining K-Marts - usually go there first for many things, hoping to keep them here.
And yes, most of us hate that repacking.
“Professional Tier 1 Grifter.”
None finer!
LOL!!
(She made up for it, by stealing the rest)
Not only that, but she roused her crowd of ignoramuses by socking it to "big corporations" and "hedge fund managers." Turns out that the list of Clinton Foundation contributors includes a slew of well known corporate names and Chelsea's husband, her 'Rat son-in-law, is a hedge fund manager.
In her way of thinking, a bad guy becomes a good guy when the bad guy pays her off. This is blatant hypocrisy and greed!
