Clinton's $7 billion 'insourcing' plan

John, Morgan Hill, California — Wed, 02 Apr 2008 17:21:14 GMT

All this talk of plans makes me wonder why those plans haven't already been introduced as legislation by Senator Clinton in her two terms in the Senate?

Amazing. Sounds great. If we could believe her.

I just can't fathom the nerve of Hillary, to adress, "insorcing, and outsourcing", jobs, in the same breath, when she helped outsource our jobs with NAFTA.

This is not Clinton bashing. It's an asessment.

I just can't listen anymore.

HRC continues to prove her genius when she introduces plans such as this, and yet, the party and the MSM remain enamored with a candidate, Barack Obama, who can't even make up his mind on what to do about the Olympics. America, wake up! It's your children's future that is at stake here.

Sounds similar to her plans when running for Senate in Western NY, an area with declining jobs and aging population. She promised a lot, delivered nothing, said in retrospect, she had been "exuberant" and her promises were based on Al Gore becoming President. Typical Clinton, misspeak, promise anything and blame someone else for your failures.

And all of this would be paid for by "closing tax loopholes"? Nice try, Senator. How many years would that take? You can only get elected for eight.

Is this workable, and where is the money coming from? Can you guys help me? 300 billion here, 7 billion there, if we have such resources why where they not previously availble? How come they can help us now? I'll leave it to the experts (Chuck,Mark,and Domenico)to sort this out for me. Thank you, Inadvance.

an 'insourcing' plan by the architect of the original 'outsourcing' plan, that's rich. clintons plan it would seem is to hand out billions of taxpayer dollars to the corporate entities bankrolling her campaign, imagine that. how many of those billions do you think are actually going to make it to the worker? why some union workers back hillary is an absolute mystery to me

I've always wanted to know why Hillary's healthcare plan places a mandate on the peolple to buy health insurance instead of placing a mandate on the government to come up with something that would work for everybody.

Making it a law that you have to buy health insurance is just another way of satisfying the lobbyists by giving the insurance industry guaranteed business.

OK, and what about that sniper fire in Bosnia? We can no longer trust anything that Clinton says, certainly not her extravagant promises on the economy. Besides long ago Obama proposed cutting tax breaks for outsourcing and creating Green Jobs, she stole those ideas. " A chicken in every pot." She is using an old trick of promising anyone anything to get votes, meanwhile she and Bill have profited enormously from companies in India which are major outsourcing operations. This is a fact! Check out Punjab!

I wonder how she'll 'spin' this with some of her colleagues...She IS the CO-CHAIR for the "India Caucus", you know, where 'outsourcing' is the toast of party.

Today Im reflecting about a time you told our state (New York) that you would create millions of jobs during your time in the Senate and I have been sadden since because instead of a surplus there has been a deficit.
You're not Woodrow Wilson. You're a liar! Please leave.

Didn't HRC promised jobs in her state of NY and netted a lost of jobs instead. How can she deliver on jobs for the whole country when she couldn't deliver the promised jobs to NY. I guess she misspoke again (LIED).

there's only so much money the current tax loopholes create... anyone care to have her tally that up and compare it to all the proposed programs she's going to "create"???

I wonder if this will work out just like the jobs she brought to Rochester NY that she promised during her senate race!!

We need a uniter....Barack Obama is the one!!

Hasn't Senator Obama been campaigning on this (closing tax loopholes for those who ship jobs overseas, rewarding those who keep jobs and create more jobs here) for months now?

How in the world can anyone believe anything she says? The Bosnia story is unbelievable. Don't you think that it would have been on the national news if our first lady had been under fire? She insults everyone's intelligence, just like her husband, "I didn't inhale" Clinton.

Wasn't Hillary Clinton's *last* economic speech all about job re-training? It was the last gasp strategy of a campaign and candidate that has GIVEN UP on American workers... Now, she takes a page from Senator Obama and gives it a catchy title -- "insourcing." Clever.

My question is, when you say that words count, isn't it important that the words (and *ideas*) be your own?

(Unless, of course, your own words can be disproven with a simple visit to YouTube.)

How can you trust anyone with your money when they can't budget their own campaign properly. Just think of the poor small business owners in Ohio that spent a lot of money and time making sure her events went smoothly and all they got was a t-shirt. They are still waiting to get paid. And all those poor Hilary supporters that send her their hard-earned money.... all they bought was doughnuts. No wonder you are all so bitter and angry.

----------
Answer - for her entire first term and half of her second term, Hillary was in the minority...Repukes were in control. And although in the majority, its only by one vote, and her plan involves getting rid of loopholes Bush had put into the tax code, so it has no chance of passing with him as president.

Even if you believe Hillie, she'll get nothing done.
She unites opinion like she ducks sniper bullets.

The battle of Pennsylvnia is becoming a policy war more than I've seen in a while. This is not bad and many thanls to Hill. It gives a sense of what the candidate "thinks" is right.

Otherwise this is not so meaningful for the man on the street. These policies:
- They need support of congress (and the nation) to pass. And experience shows they hardly do. Remember the promise to fix soc. sec. in recent campaign. Hill's recent bill on health care did not even get much support from her own party. In 7 yrs to 3 both Hill and Barrack each have two major pieces of legislation to their names. In particular, I wouldnt expect most of those mortgage policy positions to become reality soon. I'd be happy to get half of a modest promise than none of a lofty one.

- Most of it is positioning for the election (remember no new taxes, and no nation building, etc... this is the stuff of campaigns)
The enlightened beware.

(Some of the policies are not even viable on deep scrutiny and some need fixing after hurting some groups while helping some - like NAFTA years later which Hill is now disowning. she might have been well served disowning the hubby with it.)

Is Hillary gonna put Norman Hsu in charge ?

Peter Paul is REALLY good at fund raising
Maybe he could help generate revenue for this plan

Maybe she could get the Indian company Tata to outsource the IT jobs......

I'd like to know how you can mock Hillary's mandate on healthcare when Obama has mandates in his healthcare plan? Maybe you should read up on your candidate.

Another plan with a big price tag.
I hope she doesn't plan to pay for it the same way
she pays her campaign bills.

NY lost alot of jobs after Hillary promised them jobs
would pour in after she got elected in the Senate.

Reportedly, Hillary blamed Gore not being Pres. for
the job loss.

Just another reason not to trust Hillary.

Sounds to me like Hillary was told a different ver-
sion of the chicken little story when she was young.
