Hillary Channels Robin Hood

Hillary ClintonOh goody. Hillary Clinton is issuing an economic plan. I can’t think of anything scarier than that.

Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton’s campaign released a 13-page blueprint for fixing the economy Monday, detailing the former first lady’s plans to achieve universal health care, address the home foreclosure crisis and develop jobs for the middle class.

[...]

But by pulling them together, the document resembles a populist manifesto — with Clinton championing the needs of working-class voters over corporate and business interests.

Over the past seven years, big corporations and special interests have been given a free pass to profit, often at the expense of the American worker. As President, Hillary will make it a priority to scale back special benefits and subsidies to these corporations and put those resources to work for our economy again,” the pamphlet declares.

Hillary Clinton, Economic Robin Hood. The article also talks about her plans to stop foreclosures, create new jobs, make college more affordable and expand family and medical leave programs. Leaping tall buildings at a single bound was not mentioned.

This quote from the article is really telling.

“Hillary’s plan to rein in the special interests will take back at least $55 billion per year from drug companies, oil companies and firms that ship jobs overseas and invest those resources to improve the lives of working families,” the pamphlet said.

Take back? Really, take back?

So, what Hillary is saying is that money and profit belong to the government (aka “The State”) and that she will put an end to the “free pass to profit” and “take back” the money so that the all wise government can distribute it fairly.

This woman needs to be kept far away from the White House. None of us can afford to do otherwise.

ADDED: Least you think that it’s only Hillary that aims to take from the rich and give to the poor, Curt (Flopping Aces) looks at Obama’s economic plan and sees the same nanny state mentality.
