CLINTON IS A CHAMPION OF CLASS INEQUALITY

 

[Also see "The Clinton/Trump Team"]

 

Hillary Clinton is 100% on the side of the ruling billionaire plutocracy and opposed to the values and interests of the vast majority of Americans, not to mention the rest of the people in the world. Let us count some of the ways that Clinton serves the ruling plutocracy.

#1. Clinton backed the Trans-Pacific Partnership scheme openly until she flipped to cater to Bernie Sanders supporters and then flipped back (by selecting as her Vice Presidential running mate big time "fast track" TPP supporter Tim Kaine.) TPP, like NAFTA before it, is all about increasing the power of the multinational corporate elite to ride roughshod over ordinary people.

 

#2. Clinton, who has made a career out of being bribed (a.k.a. paid handsomely for giving speeches that she refuses to make public) by the likes of Goldman Sachs is loyal to the banksters, not the people whom the banksters screw.

 

#3. Clinton is a warmonger. As Jeffrey Sachs (once a pal of liberals such as Bono and Bill Clinton and George Soros no less) writes, "There’s no doubt that Hillary is the candidate of Wall Street. Even more dangerous, though, is that she is the candidate of the military-industrial complex. The idea that she is bad on the corporate issues but good on national security has it wrong. Her so-called foreign policy “experience” has been to support every war demanded by the US deep security state run by the military and the CIA."

#4. Clinton seems to want to go to war with Russia (which will be thermonuclear war!) As Paul Craig Roberts (an Assistant Secretary of the Treasury under Ronald Reagan) writes: "What do the Russians think when they see that the Democratic Party intends to elect Hillary Clinton president of the US? Hillary is a person so crazed that she declared the president of Russia to be 'the new Hitler' and organized through her underling, neocon monster Victoria Nuland, the overthrow of the democratically elected government of Ukraine. Nuland installed Washington’s puppet government in a former Russian province that until about 20 years ago was part of Russia for centuries. I would bet that this tells even the naive pro-western part of the Russian government and population that the United States intends war with Russia."

#5. Clinton supports Israel's racist ethnic cleansing of non-Jews in Palestine (a.k.a. "Israel's right to exist and to defend itself") 100%. This racist ethnic cleansing benefits only the very rich in Israel and in the United States and other Middle East nations, as discussed more fully here

#6. Clinton has never opposed class inequality. She has never opposed the fundamental aspects of our society that result in 20 individuals owning as much wealth as half of all Americans, and 400 individuals owning as much wealth as 61% of all Americans. The policies Clinton advocates are the policies that the billionaire class uses to amass and hold onto its wealth and power and privilege at the expense of ordinary people. 

#7. Clinton pits whites and blacks against each other for divide-and-rule. She does this by preaching that white working class people benefit from racial discrimination against blacks and Hispanics, that, in her words, "white people need to recognize our privilege [the word "privilege" means, by definition, a benefit]. According to Clinton's preaching, what harms blacks and Hispanics benefits ordinary white people. This is false. Among working class people, an Injury to One is an Injury to All, as explained here and here. Clinton, along with Big Money, promotes the use of the phrase "white privilege" as a substitute for the proper phrase "racial discrimination" in order to promote the false notion that whites benefit from racial discrimination and that "anti-racism" is just code for "anti-white." How Big Money does this is described fully here. The effect (see it here) is to foment race war while seeming to be for the opposite.
