Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) said in an interview broadcast Sunday that it's "wrong" to call her a socialist as Republican critics seek to use the label against her and other progressive Democrats running for president.
"I believe in markets. Markets that work," Warren told CBS News correspondent Ed O'Keefe in an interview that aired on "Face the Nation."
"Markets that have a cop on the beat and have real rules and everybody follows them," she continued. "I believe in a level playing field. And as long as we've got that then we will get the best out of markets because it means the people who come up with great ideas, who work hard are the ones who will prosper, not simply those who were born into wealth."
"So if you get labeled as a socialist?" O'Keefe asked.
"Well, it's just wrong," Warren responded.

Instead of "socialist", she prefers the apt sobriquet that the Native Americans coined for her, "psycho-lost".

But is she an honest Indian?

Love the level playing field idea. So when will fed swat teams be raiding the Clinton foundation and the Clinton offices?

"I believe in markets. Markets that work," Markets that work under constant government meddling and exactly the way the government tells them or otherwise they'll be crushed out of existence. That's socialism.

It would be “just wrong” to call her a Cherokee or honest. I think she’s a socialist.

Ok, fascist.
Just a socialist who keeps a veneer of a market around. Controlled by massive micromanaging government bureacracy, legislation and regulations.

Ms. Warren wants to limit profits from businesses and to distribute them to the bottom class (after taking a healthy vigorish for her big government self, of course)
Socialism?
Of course.

Speaking of which - I recall she said her campaign will not take any PAC or "big money" - will be all small donation stuff. Which tells me she IS set to take the big money. She's pathological and lies easier than Hitlery does.

HRC came out stated that the fully 41% of the Democratic Party was socialist entity based on the fact that they(dems) wanted to Institute more social programs. Flat out stated that without denial. Where HRC got the 41% number is hard to say.
Was that 41% number accurate? Or was she low balling the percentages.
Of course HRC said at the the same time that she was a capitalist or as it might be referred to as a non-binary democratic socialist.

So— she’s trying to say what-— that she’s NOT Jill Stein? Cause she sure as hell is— difference being Stein at least is a physician/socialist. Warren sure as hell is a govt. apparatchik socialism is force freaking Lawyer— a “Cary Nation” of utopian socialistic “force”. She used the word “markets” with saying “overseen by COPS!!” That folks is... govt. controlled investment. And Mark Levin would ID this as Leftist Fascist (there is such a thing as a Leftist Fascist Socialist— where force is the underlying premise).

“I believe in a level playing field.”
...and so do most socialists. As long as their friends are “more equal” than everyone else.
