Until now, I thought Obama's "you didn't build this" exemplified the height of economic ignorance.

 

"Appearing at a Boston rally for Democrat gubernatorial candidate Martha Coakley on Friday, Hillary Clinton told the crowd gathered at the Park Plaza Hotel not to listen to anybody who says that “businesses create jobs.”

“Don’t let anybody tell you it’s corporations and businesses create jobs,” Clinton said.

“You know that old theory, ‘trickle-down economics,’” she continued. “That has been tried, that has failed. It has failed rather spectacularly.”

“You know, one of the things my husband says when people say ‘Well, what did you bring to Washington,’ he said, ‘Well, I brought arithmetic,’” Clinton said, which elicited loud laughs from the crowd."

Where does she think jobs come from -- the stock delivers them!  Government survives from taxing the profits of business and the income they pay employees.  No businesses, no jobs, no no taxes, no government.  

TRUTH -- THE NEW HATE SPEECH!

JT, Liberal platitudes sound nice, but don't deliver.  Businesses may built from the bottom up.  But, they are built by the owners, not the government.  Without the 'trickle down" of profits, the business wouldn't survive, be able to hire, or pay taxes.

Then start a business and give your employees all the profit.  While you're at it, let them own all the stock too, that way you won't feel guilty at all.

You know, one thing I've noticed is the right wing is given to  extremes. Who said the employees get all the profit? Who said let them own all the stock?  I'll give you a hint, you did, an extreme right wing nut.

Going one farther, per the Pew research, 47% of consistant conservatives get their main source of news from Fox only.  Fox news viewers rated the absolute lowest in ability to correctly answer questions on a quiz about recent news events.

LOL, really? Well, what news outlets do you lefties watch? I think we all know the reputations of the liberal "news" outlets, and how they edit/alter the news and turn it into outright lies. I need to find which one says there are only 1500 accountants in the country and that 300 equals 90% of them. Honest to pete that is what one liberal posted one time. Too, I'm curious to know where jobs come from if businesses and companies don't make them. Maybe you can answer that one. I know lefties think standing in lines to sign up for government give away programs is their job, so could be  who/what hillary means are handing out jobs.

The fact that a democrat would vote for a community organizer with zero experience speaks volumes as to who the low information voter really is. 

The problem with people like yourself is you always want to play the victim card.  I can't be rich because the rich won't let me be rich, wah, wah, I can't get ahead in life because I didn't catch the breaks, wah, wah, the rich owe me because I was born, wah, wah........I could go on and on.

 

Chance will always favor a prepared mind.  What you view as "lucky" or "priviledged" is most often actually extensive preparation and discipline.  We could give all the people on the low end of the pay spectrum a million dollars today and within 2 years the vast majority would be exactly where they were before recieving a dime.  It's just a fact of life, there will be winners and there will be losers.   The myth of treating everyone fairly that the union perpetuates is BS.  Look at how your high level union leaders live and compare it to how the craftsmen live.  Hypocrisy in action.

The republicans had their primaries and selected a candidate  that a community organizer could, and did, beat. Judging from that, who is the "low information" voter?


And how is that working out for America?  I don't think you even understand what you are talking about as you just insulted yourself with that statement.

No, I didn't insult myself, I simply pointed out that a whole nation of republican geniuses couldn't select someone who could beat a community organizer in an election.

One more time, if you don't catch them, they don't get prosecuted.  First, there were no internal controls.  Now, it appears that illegals are using fake IDs or state IDs that don't have the status as non-citizens to vote.

Republicans selected a man that could and would have worked to pull this country out of the bog. Democrats don't want their gravy train stopped. They voted for an unqualified community organizer because he and the democrats are 'gonna give us stuff'. That is ALL that drives democrats, thinking they're going to be given things without anything being asked of them in return. Now we are seeing the sorry shape the country is in and facing further decline because of that 'gimme, I'm entitled' mindset.

So you are saying that we have a problem because you say we are. Is that what brought in all these voter restrictions in that mainly affect democratic voters? And it does affect democrats much more than republicans.

JT, Either, you didn't read the article I posted a link to, or are attempting deflection.  The article show several studies that revealed non-citizens voting, sometimes with fake documentation, sometimes with legitimate ID.  Enough voted to make a difference in close elections,

LOL

 

Also funny that dem voters have no problem buying/receiving booze, guns, cigarettes, obama phone, welfare, public housing...all of which require some form of ID.  This can only lead me to believe that the root cause of their problems is due to their tiny brains, which cannot remember to bring their ID with them.  This would require a return trip to where they stays and then double back to the poll, waaay too much work for the average democrat.

 

 

There is one thing that everyone is forgetting, excluding the fracking oil and natural gas drilling, the Obama economy is a perfect example of trickle down economics. All the QEs' have done is funnel cheap money to bloated banks, lower the returns to poor folks savings and investments, and artificially drive up the values of rich folks assets.

 

GEORGE WILL: The president went to the state of Illinois to brag about the economy. Illinois has 300,000 fewer jobs than it had in 2008. For the last four years in the state of Illinois, the number of new food stamp recipients has increased twice as fast as the number of new job recipients. He was speaking in Illinois on a college campus. He did not mention that 40 percent of recent college graduates are either unemployed or underemployed -- that is, in jobs that don't require college degrees -- and one in three recent college graduates is living at home with their parents.

Now, the president, we just heard, disparage trickle-down economics while bragging about doubling the stock market value. He is practicing trickle-down economics by doubling the stock market. He, and, for six years now, and most recently under his choice to be head of the Fed, Janet Yellen, have had zero interest rates, the intended effect of which is to drive people out of bonds and into assets like farm land, but particularly into stocks. That is why this has been a boon to the 10 percent of Americans who own 80 percent of all the directly owned stocks. And this is why 95 percent of the wealth created in the last six years have gone to the dreaded top one percent.

Back to voter fraud. Will any of you right wingnuts tell me how many cases of voter fraud convictions occurred in the last 10 years. If it is happening as much as y'all insinuate, somebody would be convicted. For 40 pIus years, I voted using a voter id card issued to me at the election commission in my home county. I had to show proper identification and proof of residence to get it. 

There was an instance of a republican activist in Wisconsin voting 4 times in this election cycle, but I assume he was forgiven since he was republican.

Why do you left wing nuts lie about voter fraud? Why wouldn't you want people's rights and votes protected? Because the fraud is mostly by the left wing nuts, that's why. Keep selling the country down the river jt. Keep giving it to unproductive people, illegal aliens, and others that want to bring it down. Maybe after you've messed in your nest you'll be singing a different tune and be ready to stop the lying for your traitorous party.

Proof? Or is this just something that, as usual, someone emailed or told you?

"Furthermore, some of these non-citizens voted. Our best guess, based upon extrapolations from the portion of the sample with a verified vote, is that 6.4 percent of non-citizens voted in 2008 and 2.2 percent of non-citizens voted in 2010."

I firmer believe Hillary did what most politicians do, lie about her beliefs to keep " lying squaw" out of the presidential race. Her past proves she embraces capitalism, quid pro quo crony capitalism like Obamanous trickle-down economics.

There is no such thing as "trickle down economics".  The Democrats invented the phrase to attack Reagan and Bush I.  There is such a thing as the trickle down effect.  It is very real. 

 

To say that businesses don't create jobs just shows that Hillary Clinton knows nothing about business, employers, employees, or economics.  Why should she?  She has no real experience with any of those things.
