WATCH: Crowd Cheers Clinton's Call To 'Raise Taxes On The Middle Class'

August 3, 2016



Hillary Clinton called for raising taxes on the “middle class” while campaigning on Monday in Omaha, NE. Joined by left-wing Democrat billionaire Warren Buffett, she received applause from those in attendance.


“Because while Warren is standing up for a fairer tax code, Trump wants to cut taxes for the super-rich,” said Clinton. “Well, we’re not going there, my friends. I’m telling you, right now - we’re going to write fairer rules for the middle class and we are going to raise taxes on the middle class!”

Presumably a slip of the tongue, Clinton’s comment came amid broader Marxist-themed demagoguery about forcing “the wealthy” to “pay their fair share” of taxes.


Buffet was praised for comments he made in 2012 in which he claimed to pay a lower percentage of his income as federal tax than his secretary, feeding into the Occupy Wall Street movement’s class warfare narratives.

No comments were made about the approximately 45% of Americans who do not pay federal income taxes. In 2014, between 51 and 55 percent of total federal income taxes were paid by individuals earning $250,000 or more.


Clinton did not articulate any limiting principle as to what share of GDP should be composed of governmental spending. No upper limit for taxation was articulated, either.

What we are seeing is the rise of a new political party: the Liberal Feminist party. They are logically detached from the real world, and conjure up all kinds of schemes to advance a narrow political agenda, yet manage to hide behind the aspect of feminine vulnerability. One doesn't dare say anything that could be conceived as an angry criticism, no matter how reasonable. This has replaced the 1960's-70's archtypical, cranky, misfit liberal female politician. These new ones are a lot more adept at gathering broad support.

Our state has many of them at the helm, including the nation's first openly "bi" female governor. Plus some other local officials. They definitely have an "old girls club" and incessantly dream up taxes and humongous budgets and expenditures. So it is not surprising that Hillary would be smitten with the idea of new taxes.
