Answer 1

Excuse me, but haven't you heard of corporate welfare yet?

That's a form of socialism that's been going full steam for years and particularly under this administration in the military contractor sector.  We're rebuilding a foreign nation out of our taxpayer funding for heaven's sake!  And they're blowing it up as fast as we build it!

I'd rather fund a million US welfare queens who spend their ill gotten gains in our local economy creating jobs in our communities at this rate!

We've got bridges collapsing, sewers overloaded, ports unsecure, schools overcrowded, hospitals closing, science funding pinched, and power grids stretched.  Let's get some socialism going to fix these ills!

Answer 2

I would find it hard to believe that Ms. Clinton has malicious intent. I do think however that the programs she proposes have no historical background in being successful for the long term. People who villianize the U.S. for going to war simply don't have a complete understanding of global economics and think that voicing a morally acceptable opinion makes them a contributor in the name of free speech. The fact is, conservatives generally promote economic success because finances are usually best managed in a conservative fashion. This is true in government, business, and the private sector. You can argue untill you are blue in the face that there are starving americans and the government should feed them no matter what the cost, but there has never been any evidence that "free lunches" benefit the poor in the long term. This is a drain on the economy and the poor get poorer because of it. You are right. The US would be on the road to socialism if Ms. Clinton does what she proposes she will do. When voting, I'm going to ask myself which candidate promotes ideas that have been successful in the past? This is important in a growingly competitive global market.

Answer 3

Why not? They think we can pay for a war too. We can't, but they make us pay anyway. Hillary can't do worse than the men have. Why do they referr to good things in female terms , like mother nature, the woman behind the man? HUH?

Answer 4

well if she can keep coming up with million dollar donations from chinese food workers, we might!

Answer 5

One word: Constitution.

One more word:  Medication.

Answer 6

Heading for socialism, where have you been, socialism in America began with FDR. Remember when he bailed us out of the last economic hole we dug ourselves in, before these "socialist" laws, when we were able to make decisions for ourselves.  People were jumping out of windows.

Answer 7

never question Hilary ..... ya just gotta believe !  .... "trust in Hilary " !

Answer 8

I don't support Hillary Clinton. But if I did, the basic argument goes like this: We can spend trilions of dollars in Iraq, why can't we spend it on programs in the U.S. to help the poor and needy?

Answer 9

And who was that guy who one day said "I will divide and conquer"?  That was the old arguments from old politicians who tried to scare the US voters against a national health care system when the same woman tried to bring it on the attention of the public 15 years ago.  

The first bill that needs to be passed is one that would say that big corporations can't contribute to election campaigns and that all corporations should never attempt to send lobbyist to the White House.  Then you would have a cleaner politic system that would not send your people at war for money.  The actual system is unhealthy and can only lead to totalitarianism.  Watch the movie ZEITGEIST and you will understand (http://zeitgeistmovie.com).

Instead of costing you hundreds of billions of dollars a year to kill people without even knowing why, you would be able to invest a part of it into health, education, environment, crime prevention and in your economy to create better jobs and better salary.  

Imagine how powerful the American people would be if that happens.  

Clinton wants to help the poor by sharing with them a lunch? Why not.  

Peace.

Answer 10

At the moment America can afford anything - they can invade another country/ies to get more fund - countries have the riches in the world still not taken - they can invade if they want. Lucky I am staying in a poor country, if not they will come for us too - well sort off poor.  We have palm oil no black gold or yellow gold or platinum no uranium

Answer 11

I'm tired of all forms of welfare. I believe in helping the old and invalid, however. Those who CAN'T provide for themselves. Not those who choose not to.

The US can't afford Socialised Medicine, no country can. It is failing everywhere. Those who can afford it flock to the US to get treated because they die waiting for treatment.
