She claims to oppose the corruption of the financial system yet she protects the very foundation of it?here we have one of those stupid ones I posted about.... too stupid to realize they are fighting against their own best interestSeems like a lot of empty talk in my opinion."The total amount of money that Wall Street handed out in BONUSES last year was DOUBLE the total income of ALL FULL TIME Minimum Wage Workers. That's obscene.. ~Elizabeth Warren
Any significant brainy responses to this?
I think in the end of this discussion, most people will notice our Economy was exactly like it was just before the Great Depression. A few had it all and the majority had little. What's sad is the poor people are fighting for their own poverty, they think they will get paid more if their employers aren't restricted by Big Gov......Yea, Your employer is using you like a tool to lower restrictions to make even more profits and make you more poor. Thanks for playing.
Small business will not make it into this discussion because it didn't have enough $ to buy politicians.
She talks about ending obscene profits of Wall Street, and helping working people. But adds very little in the way of policy, it seems to be rhetoric and no follow through to dupe gullible working class people into voting for her.
Does she mention anything of breaking up the major banks through anti-trust laws?
Reimplementing Glass-Steagall?
Implementing anti-usury laws?
Revising trade laws, moving away from free trade policies which undermine American firms and American workers for the benefit of major multinationals?
At least reducing immigration and opposing amnesty to protect the jobs and wages of American workers?
Implementing a tax structure that incentivizes companies to do business in America, and taxes at a higher rate those who don't?
Just talking about how the disparity is "unfair" without addressing any of the underlying causes as to why it existsseems like a moot point for me. It is just bait for voters, like Obama provided in 2008.

No reason to be an asshole to me because you don't recognize neither party, nor any major politician, cares about you.
seems you bought a right wing nut job site ...
P.S.
too stupid to realize they are fighting against their own best interest
