Isnt the "shared prosperity" Billary is referring to really just naked raw extreme socialism?
it's time to replace an "on your own" society with one based on shared responsibility and prosperity
quote addt'l
Clinton also said she would help people save more money by expanding and simplifying the earned income tax credit; create new jobs by pursuing energy independence; and ensure that every American has affordable health insurance.
1.) What's wrong with an on your own society? I dont want or need a sociast state to tell me to share what I produce. Isnt that in reality the function of a free market free of government intervention? Ive been on my own for most 49 years and dont want or need Billary to direct my finances.
2.) Here's a better and more effective way to save people money. ELIMINATE the earned income credit, go to a flat tax and forget socialized health insurance. Its a nice pipe dream but look no farther than Canada or Britian to see what mess the government makes of it.
3.) BUSINESS not governemt creates jobs.

Answer:
You hit the nail on the head. We started on the slippery slope toward socialism when the government got involved in a national retirement system (the great pyramid scheme known as Social Security), medicare, the prescription drug program and now, medicine. I'm an older guy and I am against taking more of the individual's labor value and giving it to people who didn't earn it. I don't expect anyone to look out for me but me. I'd give up my Social Security benefits tomorrow if they want to scrap the program. I don't want to see future generations strapped with the debt load that our government (Democrats and Republicans, take you pick of which scum you prefer) is deferring for the sake of staying in power.
So, you are saying that if a family can't afford health insurance for their children, or if their employer does not provide it, we should just let them be?
I'm also sort of curious if you went to a public school? If so, do you think that was a good idea? Or, should the purchase of education be up to individual families, regardless of their ability to afford it?
When did the United Way ever provide health insurance to the poor? Must have missed that...
koalatcomics, you've demostrated Hillary has some social policies, but I don't see what's "naked", "raw" or "extreme" about them.
"Shared Prosperity" is a nice way of saying:
"Meet your new master, the government."
If you want to see the end result of shard prosperity, the city of New Orleans is a great example. They shared their poverty equally.

Shared prosperity lives in Cuba and is just taking hold in Venezuela.
We already have health care for the poor. It already gets abused. We don't need a bigger system so it can support even more abuse.
