THE BANKING FIASCO
THE BANKING FIASCO
THROW THEM ALL IN JAIL !
SAVE MONEY, THROW THEM OUT ON THE STREETS
There’s something disingenuous about it, coming from Hillary. I don’t trust her, my views aren’t in line with hers, everything just feels calculated and like she’s pandering. Like she heard that calling out white privilege was a big thing, these days, and so it was calculated into her campaign strategy, rather than…
1) Yes. And? Who or what is this referring to?
And Bernie spoke out against the bill before he signed it.
Not only that — they exploited racism to gain power, cut programs to help the poor while SPECIFICALLY stigmatizing and othering black citizens in need, ramped up the police state, etc. She’s taking private prison money RIGHT NOW. She isn’t actually offering to do anything at all except talk. And with all that “I”…
NB: The NAACP rating (which is from 2006, btw) scores according to a politician’s stance on Affirmative Action alone. That’s it.
Here’s the source:
And everyone around here eats it up. It’s kind of shocking, really. I’ve been reading and commenting here for awhile and I never expected such brutally transparent pandering to gain any traction with what I had considered some of the more politically sophisticated commenters on the internet. But then “Berniebro”…
I think if she truly believed any of this, we’d have some evidence to back it up in all her years of public service. As it is, we have plenty of evidence to the contrary — her historically supporting legislation that made life far more difficult for the poor, working class and minorities. Even now, she opposes…
Context and perception are definitely important to keep in mind.
I see what your saying. That 150 million I referenced, however, wasn’t money given to her campaigns for her to get elected. That specific amount was money given to her and her husband personally for speaking fees at private, Wallstreet events. It’s legal bribery. If you believe money corrupts, this is the most…
Then you must know that this is how it goes.
This is a perfectly
reasonablewell-rehearsed, carefully scripted and tested answer that has little to do with her record but is put out there because she desperately needs non-white voters to fend off Bernie.
Yeah seems rather condescending. Sorta like Shkreli talking about business ethics or Madoff admonishing America about running scams.
bell hooks been saying that since when.
Someone who can back it up with their actions and isn’t cynically using those words to get elected. The fact that she and her husband have been paid over 150 million dollars from private donors on Wallstreet just makes her words that much more hollow and cynical. She’s taking her privilege all the way to the bank (And…
I LOVE THE PANDERING!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!! I love the fact that she and her husband made tons of money off of private prisons, increased sentences for minor drug offenses, and “TRUMPETING” the effectiveness of NAFTA while any remaining manufacturing jobs in the US dry up...affecting low income workers the most.…
Especially one who contributed to the growing gap between white people and everyone else on this continent.
