Hillary Clinton announces tech platform

[NCTraveler]

Connectivity, education, and entrepreneurship — these are the principles of Hillary Clinton’s technology platform, unveiled today at a Denver startup incubator.

The decision to announce her technology imperatives outside of Silicon Valley may seem strange, but it represents one of the platform objectives: to democratize tech industry growth across the country, rather than just leaving the industry isolated on its most well-known turf.

“I do plead guilty to being a policy wonk and I know that can be boring,” Clinton said as she announced her platform. “But it really matters what we do and how we do it if we’re going to create the economy of the future.”

Clinton’s tech platform is focused on five areas — expanding the tech economy through education and R&D investment, upgrading infrastructure and connectivity across America, improving the nation’s relationships with other governments on technology-related issues, reforming laws on copyright and net neutrality while studying encryption, and opening up government data to the public.

1. That's great. Just one of the new policy positions she's got in the pipeline

While we hear nothing of any substance from Trump and his 30-person, nationwide staff.

Oh wait, he did say Brexit is good for his golf courses.

2. "he did say Brexit is good for his golf courses."

That made me laugh. He is such a shallow and small man.
