UPDATED, CNN Video: Clinton with Jake Tapper, Vows to Work with Sanders, More, April 29

Last edited Fri Apr 29, 2016, 11:53 PM - Edit history (3)

Tapper said no one knows better than You what Sen. Sanders is going through right now. She essentially agreed because of what she went through in 2008 and said, I'm going to work aggressively to reach out to Sanders supporters. I'm going to work on getting money out of politics. *We have a lot in common.

really really really evil.

ALWAYS. Without fail. Its the way they work.

In other words, "Beware of Greeks bearing Gifts" needs to always apply.


In the case of HRC, the thing that never gets discussed is these trade deals which are quietly making the entire future agenda of Sen Sanders and all other progressives impossible behind our backs- forever, the talks going on now in Geneva and Brussels-

with the intent of trading away a impossibly horrible number of jobs as well, until the wages in US and elsewhere equalize, without the wealthy paying their fair share, By stealth.

just delay, just talk with me, eat my apple, DON'T FIGURE OUT WHATS REALLY HAPPENING.

thats the worst one - it and the successor deal being negotiated in Geneva and all other services deals have to go.

We should blanket repeal them all even if the developing countries go berserk because of the long promised Mode Four jobs.

However, those jobs were the still unfulfilled payback for playing a corrupt game at our expense, they will then be able to go back to public health care and public education though, as will we.

then we should try to figure out ways for us all to learn more about one anothers needs and help one another in ways that do not pit us against one another for the same jobs- Nobody wants to leave theur family ad travel to the other side of the world for a job that barely puts food on the table- thats what we all should reject- "movement of natural persons" provisions are a scheme to divide and conquer us all while leaving the basic inequities untouched.

Instead we should start fro scratch with everybody AT the table instead of us on it being carved up.

Pretty much everyone I used to work with is now in another country chasing their old job. Of course the jobs are no longer staff with benefits. Just per show, no benefits, no security. Everything was off shored 2013 to take advantage of overseas tax incentives and cheaper employee health care costs.

But he needed to tell us that was the situation and he hasn't- An explanation that gives him the benefit of the doubt would posit that hes tried to make his candidacy a referendum on the last 20 years of changes by pretending they never happened instead of explaining them AND WHAT THEY HAVE DONE.

Read the paper in my .siig below, its a good introduction to a bunch of concepts. Also, why did its author suddenly die?

who under Thatcher negotiated trade deals. He is so alarmed he has broken rank with Cameron.



snip

Peter Liley, broke ranks when he outlined his opposition to TIPP (a deal currently being negotiated between the USA and EU) which he points out TAKES AWAY THE RIGHTS OF GOVERNMENT TO PROTECT ITS OWN CITIZENS.

snip

The more closely I look at it, the more parts of it worry me. Conservatives who believe in free trade should be very wary about endorsing TTIP....we should not sign away Parliament’s right to protect our citizens from harmful additives, and so forth

taking away the rights of government to protect its own citizens. The goal is to destroy national sovereignty (in any meaningful sense of the world). In the future, the only role a national government will play is that of overseeing armed control of its citizens (police and military) while the global corporate leviathan attends to its own interests unimpeded. Brave new world vision is right on track, moving forward apace. I really hope that European countries end up telling the US to go screw itself on these that TTIP. Unlikely any leaders will do this, but there's more hope of such a thing happening there than there is here (unless, somehow, Bernie ends up in the White House).

Fri Apr 29, 2016, 05:48 PM
Apr 2016

talks went on and on.

We already spend 2/3 of every health care dollar comes from the government- and insurance wastes around a third- so single payer would cost basically nothing more than what we spend now, or very little more-

They had to have these fake crises, though, which the "hard choices" in the FTAs to throw Americans under the bus "solves" you see.


Education was given a fake crises too, at what cost? A whole generations future.

for that, there is a parallel in China under Mao- the sent down generation.

https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3A.in+GATS+WTO+education&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

China? I don't think you're understanding what I was getting at.

When you hear about "procurement" in services, its the globalization of some government services down to the municipal level -

http://www.southcentre.int/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/AN_SV11_The-Development-Dimension-of-the-GATS-Domestic-Regulations_EN.pdf

Also, TiSA -

For decades, these talks have gone on and the lowest bidders - whomever they are- are being promised market access- in services its in the form of procurement contracts to the lowest bidders international firms will bid- and the lowest wages will likely not be from US firms so until we totally automate (in areas like construction of infrastructure) or drastically lower wages here we likely won't win. Its a conscious effort to pit the working people of the world against one another to maintain and increase inequality.

http://www.fes-globalization.org/geneva/documents/2014/2014_10_17%20From%20GATS%20to%20TISA%20Report.pdf

that is why they wouldnt fix health care even though we knew what we were doing would fail.

On schedule.

To "fix" it "they will propose" globalizing it. See how it works?

Yeah ... Getting 'money out of politics' is really important ...

However, as important as this is, my problem with Hillary and the Clinton's in general is how they have left the middle class in the lurch, paying the bills with less and less income while Hillary's fat cat friends charge MUCH, pay little, and, as an added bonus: pays little or no taxes ....

Working families need a fucking raise ... They need FOOD GOOD Health care that doesn't bankrupt them, and they need education for their children ... They deserve a decent and reasonable pension to reward their hard work ....

Everyone of those points were shot down by her highness ...

Workers.need.income.
Workers.need.health care
