Elizabeth Warren: The People's Champion

a reply to: Not Authorized

Okay, once again - I am talking about THE POINTS SHE MADE IN THIS INTERVIEW that is entitled "Fighting Back Against Wall Street". Just that one issue. it's a separate issue from Israel or foreign policy.

Can you not separate the two?

Do people want to bring back our Constitutional Republic, or have our government sold to the highest bidder at the expense to the rest of the nation where politicians are being showered with records amounts of money?

That is what is at stake here regardless of who is saying it and that message needs to spread.

I'll back any politicians willing to throw out the Banking and Corporate Lobbyists.

They need to stand on their own feet like everyone else in this country.

It is not supposed to be a democracy for the wealthy and constitutional republic for everyone else.

She's a U.S. Senator.

Has she written and introduced any legislation for this lobby dilemma?

Or is she "working on that".

Why would I support her for defending the shelling of schools, hospitals, and violations of the Geneva Conventions?

Again, a broken clock can be right, twice per day.

a reply to: jacobe001

Sure.

But why does Warren run as a Progressive.Democrat?

Her points on the money.lobby offered no solutions.

a reply to: BuzzyWigs

1. Obama promised all sorts of things and he ended up lying. So she's telling the truth?

2. Not one word about removing the biased corrupt from the IRS.

3. Will she end quantitative easement and let Wall Street correct itself?

4. Faux-ca-hontis is a typical politician.

a reply to: BuzzyWigs

The corporate and banking cheerleaders will focus on the person rather than the issues presented.
They pull the same stunt with any person that threatens their power over this country and their hold on our government.

I AM NOT TALKING about her foreign policy stance. I'm talking about her FISCAL POLICY.

Again, a broken clock can be right, twice per day.

But in order to be right, she would have to actually look at the clock.

I just gave you a solution. It does not matter what she says.
Ban Lobbying.

Done

If you listened, you'd find out who is voting for what AROUND FISCAL POLICY and what is on the table in that topic.

THis is more Marxists type rhetoric to further demonize the free market for destablization in order to push their Socialist Marxists agenda.

Now u know why the Central Banking Oligarchs love to bankroll Marxists to power. It helps further enslave the country in debt through socialism to the globalists bankers.

Sorry, don't mean to laugh but I couldn't help myself when I saw you denouncing "marxist" rhetoric by using the normal anti-socialist/marxist rhetoric.

I'd really like to know about this so-called agenda, because I have yet to see any evidence of said marxist agenda. There is plenty of evidence to conclude that there is a fascist oligarchical conspiracy going on....but no where near socialist or Communist.

As far as Elizabeth Warren? Meh.....she is correct in the things she said in the interview, but overall she is just playing to her voting block. I believe we learned pretty quick that she is willing to sell out to the lobbyists and corporations just like everyone else. That would be fascism, not socialism.

Star for you.

It is Corporate Fascism that are also using our government and military to spread their corrupt tentacles across the world at the expense to everyone in this nation.

There is nothing Conservative about them though where traditional Conservatives put the nation first based on policies beneficial to all.

On mobile so can't watch the vid right now, but she sounds like another "tell you what you want to hear" politician. Just like the current potus.

I think Washington doesn't do better by them because Washington isn't trying to do better by them. If you look at Washington as a whole, I think this is the fundamental problem in our system right now. Washington works for those who can hire armies of lobbyists, armies of lawyers, and get just the rules they want. It doesn't work so well for American families.

Look, we know the things we need to do. Raise the minimum wage. Nobody should work full time and still live in poverty. Minimum wage nationally hasn't been raised in over seven years. We need to make sure that we have real rules on equal pay for equal work. We need to lower the interest rate on student loans.

In every case, we in the United States Senate have a majority. All of the Democrats have voted in favor of this. And occasionally, we even pick up a Republican. The Republicans have filibustered in the Senate. They won't even bring things to a vote in the House of Representatives. This is really a case where one party has said, the usual rules of governing, you know, we'll come together, we'll try to talk about these things, we'll try to work something out, their answer is no, no, no. They're not there to help middle class families.

And the idea that the credit card companies, this was back in the '90s, the credit card companies wanted to change the bankruptcy laws so that they could improve the bottom line on their profitability. So just by squeezing families, and who are the families they were going to squeeze?

Families who had high medical debts, families who have someone had lost a job, like my dad had. Families who had had a breakup, either a death or a divorce in the families. Those were the families who were going into bankruptcy. Credit card companies said, we're going to squeeze that and keep fewer of them from going, and we'll make a few more dollars at the end because we can get a little more money out of them on these credit card bills.

And my first thought, when I first saw what they were trying to do, this tells you as a professor, I thought, that would never happen in a democracy.

What elected representative would say, I know, I'm going to vote to change these laws to help a half dozen big, multi-zillion-dollar credit card companies. I'm going to help them squeeze the families back home, and particularly squeeze hard-working, middle-class families, who've just gotten into terrible, financial trouble.

And boy did I find out I didn't understand how the world worked then. I ended up getting involved. I was asked to work on a bankruptcy review commission in Washington and I just saw it day after day

Time will tell. If she changed her mind, sweet! If she is just talking out her backside, we will find out pretty quickly.

Take a look at this link and see what kind of money she raises. Do you really think she is going to give up the money?

EW Campaign Funds

I've even googled and I can't find anything she said about Quantitative Easement!

Why trust someone who would support or continue to pump 85 billion into the Stock Market to prop up a faux economy?
