Showing Original Post only (View all)Hillary says she wants to make the economy work for the successful and the struggling [View all]
as if both are somehow on equal footing. the economy works too well for too many of the successful, although I suppose you could quibble about the meaning of the word successful.
She also said that republicans want to wipe out existing tough rules on Wall Street. Well, they certainly want to wipe out as many rules as they can, but the rules aren't tough now.
And incentives for businesses? Not a solution. We've been bribing the corporations for ages, with limited success. We need more stick and less carrot.

What sort of economy do you envision that would work for the struggling but NOT the successful?

That doesn't answer my question. Hillary is being criticized because she wants the economy

I can't remember her once telling us how wrong trickle down tax policy has been.
