...
So we can all compete at third-world wages, equally.
I had to look it up when I was somewhat baffled with the "inclusive economy" term because I had never heard of the term nor read about it in my college's intro to economics class over 25 years ago. Like this snippet from the Ford Foundation:
Quote:Inequality undermines economic opportunity and growth
In an inclusive economy, opportunity and prosperity are widely shared regardless of race, gender, ethnicity or caste. However, rising inequality across the world threatens greater economic inclusion by stifling opportunities for the majority of people, and undercutting social and economic progress.
But inequality is not inevitable. It is strongly influenced by policies and business practices that shape the nature of work, the strength of social protection, and the allocation of investment capital. And when policies and practices do not create level playing fields or are unevenly enforced, economies end up excluding people and discouraging innovation.
Edit: Every time I read that, it's like written by a socialist who is against capitalism and the American Dream.
Never heard or seen this guy today but caught a 5-minute clip of him grilling somebody. Ruthless. I'd vote for him if he ever runs for national office or I somehow end up in Utah married to a Mormon chick.

Slim odds it was anything other than a pre-recorded message. Otherwise what would be the point?

Going over there the first thing i notice is that theres absolutely no parking anywhere because the venue is so small ( and the crowd was not big, say a few hundred people showed up in my estimation.) Ended up parking on the side of the road in the nearby neighborhoods like everyone else. The line mostly consisted of SJW type whites and age 50+ blacks. After sitting in line for 10 minutes we were told that we would only be viewing Hillary on a big screen because the venue only held the media crew and a small crowd. Disappointed, I decided to stay for the motorcade atleast then leave. Motorcade arrives and she did not even attempt to acknowledge anyone there. Several Hillary supporters were let down by this. Afterwards, had a good discussion with some hillary supporters, as well as some neutral people who attend rallies on both sides. All in all, it was a sad and low energy event with the attendees not even allowed to see a glimpse of her.
Highlights of the trip:
* Trump truck doing rounds in the neighborhoods, displaying hillary in a prison cage on the truckbed. Pics on his gofundme page https://www.gofundme.com/2cun7fn4
* Woman asking me if im for Trump. I say " No im staying neutral", and she replies "Who dat?"
Hillary cannot possibly win in 47 days...
In the Washington Post article on this rally this morning, it said that she was "speaking before a packed community center" without giving any actual numbers.

Ease up guv.
Hillary just standing upright, walking to a podium, staying upright & not coughing for 10 minutes is a big achievement for her these days.
If Chaffetz keeps his nose clean and his moral compass straight I can see him becoming president one day.
He's clearly not buying into whatever bullshit is the story of the day behind the political scenes. We'll see how far that goes or is this just some intricate political kabuki.
If he proves that he's true and out to savage the establishment then America desperately needs men like him.
Quote:HILLARY CLINTON: Maybe I can, by speaking directly to white people, say, 'Look, this is not who we are.' We have to do everything possible to improve policing, to go right at implicit bias. There are good, honorable, cool-headed police officers. We've seen them in action in New York in the last, you know, 48 hours because of the terrorist attacks. We can do better. We have got to rein in what is absolutely inexplicable and we have got to have law enforcement respect communities and communities respect law enforcement because they have to work together.

Maybe some black forum members can tell us how much credibility Steve Harvey has these days.
Propping up crippled wealthy elite white women isn't exactly like showtime at the apollo is it.

Was that a live vid or a recorded one? Her advisors should take some heat for letting her talk like that. If she told them to buzz off and doesn't care, that is a bad look. This is the white woman's version of an angry black male in public. Not a good look at all.

A Drudge tweet listed it as a recorded message for a union or some such.
I doubt it was intended for mass public consumption.

It's like Hillary's handlers just keep flipping her through various emotions hoping that the hag can strike single note that infers she has some sort of humanity.
"What about anger? Should we give anger another shot? Hillary yells at us a lot. Maybe if we get her to yell about Trump people will be able to connect with her on some level."
But it's like trying to tune a radio without an antenna. Hillary has been removed from normal human interaction for so long she no longer has the capacity to bond with the public on any level whatsoever.
It reminds me utterly of this hillarious Onion article.
Quote:BROOKLYN, NY—After several months of diligent effort, staff members working on Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign confirmed Wednesday they have made significant progress in conditioning her to convincingly recreate and convey a limited spectrum of emotions.
According to aides who drill the Democratic frontrunner for several hours each day on her emotional responses to a variety of stimuli, Clinton can now effectively exhibit concern, mild excitement, and incredulity. Intensive training is reportedly still underway on some of the more challenging-to-produce emotions, such as polite interest and personal warmth.

That's the problem right there. The same reason they had no security which allowed kids to call on behalf of Hillary's campaign is the same reason they are being busted with this video.
They think shit happens in vacuums.
This isn't 1974. What planet do these idiots live on? Is Hillary so old and set in her ways that she is going to constantly make blunders with technology all the way to the end? You send a video to 5 people, 100 will have it in an hour.
Either her staff isn't trying or she is ignoring them. I'd like to know which because if her staff is letting her blindly swing the pinata stick all the way to the exit door, perhaps we can help them.
That gay manager of hers is doing her no favors. Her temper tantrums must be epic behind closed doors, because I cannot understand why she could not have hired David Plouffe or David Axelrod (Obama's managers). They must have turned her down knowing what a demon she is, because they are very good.
In the 2D world in which most people live, Clinton and Trump are polling about evenly, and either one could win. The 2D world is all about facts and policies and common sense. In other words – all the stuff we think we care about but really don’t.
In the 3D world of persuasion, however, the election is already over. There is still some mystery about how large the margin will be, but Trump is already the President of the United States unless something big happens in the next few weeks. How do I know that?
Listen to this clip in which Clinton asks why she isn’t leading by 50 points. Ignore the content of what she says, because no one cares about content. Just feel it.
And see the future.

The way shes pointing at the camera is cracking me up, she reminds me of Lewis Black having one of his Daily Show meltdowns.
