Clinton will unveil $275 billion infrastructure plan to create jobs By Amanda Becker
BOSTON U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton plans to make job creation the focus of her campaign over the next month, beginning with a $275 billion infrastructure spending plan that will be released this week.
Clinton's plan to increase the federal government's spending on infrastructure by $275 billion over the next five years will be fully paid for by changing how businesses are taxed, a campaign aide said, without providing any details.
Of the total amount, $25 billion will be earmarked for an infrastructure bank. Clinton's campaign estimates her proposals could also encourage private investment that, along with government spending, would inject a total of $500 billion into rebuilding crumbling roads, bridges, buildings and other structures.
"My jobs plan starts with investing in infrastructure," Clinton said on Sunday at the launch of "Hard Hats for Hillary" in Boston, "not just because infrastructure jobs are good-paying jobs, though they are, and not just because we desperately need to invest in building our future again, which we do, but because investing in infrastructure makes our economy more productive and competitive across the board."

The jokes write themselves.....
Making a play to the unions.
Because State Capitalism worked so well in the Soviet Union.
We don’t want the government involved!! We want lower taxes and the government the F out of our way!!
Wow, I wonder if they'll be lowered?
Very generous with other people’s money, she is.
This is so funny, the fat -itch is going to prison where she belongs....she just said she was spending money for infrastructure and we have a brand new Prison to build in Utah...so welcome home Hillary!!!
Where is she going to get the money? $275B is a lot of quarters.
They give half of it away.....via some ridiculous grants. For two million dollars, we got new curbs and pavement for about 1000 feet of highway.
Shovel ready?
Right into the union bank accounts
You got it!!
$100 billion for the Clintons
$100 billion for the bundlers
$75 billion for arkancide
What happened to the 500 billion we already gave Hussein for infrastructure? No more money for the government!
She'll print it.
Eleanor will be pleased.
Yeah, because more government bloat will help the real job creators - the private sector - create jobs.
Marxist b####.
/obviously directed at Hitlery
Good. Killary has lots of experience setting up slush funds. The Clinton Foundation is one of the largest.
"My jobs plan starts with investing in infrastructure," Clinton said...
Good. More union payoffs, etc.
Actually, they have. Those “shovel ready job” programs let them funnel billion$ to their buddies.
Ooooh! More shovel-ready jobs! I can’t wait!
Another so-called stimulus.
All it does it increase the debt and line the pockets of Hitlery’s cronies.
