What's not to love!
Bernie, why are you trying to take all that away! You must be a democratic socialist or something. I myself am all for the perverted form of capitalism we've developed.
Bernie.... Don't you know that the little people only get a benefit when it includes a BIG GIVE away to the corporations and 1%. We wouldn't want to stop the transfer of wealth upward would we?
Bernie, you really need to get with the program.

(12,685 posts)While at the US State Department, Hillary Clinton made an eyebrow-raising request on behalf of her son-in-law
WASHINGTON (AP) As secretary of state, Hillary Clinton intervened in a request forwarded by her son-in-law on behalf of a deep-sea mining firm to meet with her or other State Department officials after one of the firm's investors asked Chelsea Clinton's husband for help setting up such contacts, according to the most recently released Clinton emails.
The lobbying effort on behalf of Neptune Minerals Inc. came while Clinton now the leading Democratic presidential candidate was advocating for an Obama administration push to win Senate approval for a sweeping Law of the Sea Treaty.

Until this election, I never realized how much business the State Department does? Has it always been like this?

(45,082 posts)Now we all know what a true child of privilege has to say about insurance companies that will never fucking impact her life. From what I have read here it seems like most people get a 500 dollar subsidy to buy insurance which many can't afford to use, makes more sense to me to give that 500 $ or so to Medicaid or Medicare instead of blood suckers hell bent on denying services. I don't mind my tax dollars going to the government to help out people but it sure as hell posses me off for them to be used as corporate welfare.
