Here is part of a recent interview with Hillary Clinton.

Matthews: “You’re a Democrat, [rival Bernie Sanders is] a Socialist. Would you like someone to call you a socialist? I wouldn’t like someone calling me a socialist.”

Clinton: “Well, but I’m not one.”

M: “OK, well, what’s the difference between a socialist and a Democrat?”

C: “I can tell you what I am. I am a progressive Democrat . . .”

M: “How’s that different than a socialist?”

C: “. . . who likes to get things done and who believes we are better off in this country when we are trying to solve problems together; get people to work together.”

Notice that she NEVER answered the question. Billy did the same thing when asked difficult questions, i.e., offered gratuitous information that didn't answer the question but gave the illusion of cooperation.

RePete, I didn't expect you to pay her a compliment.

Politics 100 avoid answering any question that will tie you down.

Interviewers/Interrogators tip: if the subject doesn't answer the question they have answered the question.

Sorry Jim, but that is the nicest thing that I can say about the bi*ch.

You know what they say, if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything.

Here's an idea, let's get on board, the Swede's seem to know how to do it and claim to have higher standards of living, great educational programs, health and welfare programs and the redistribution of wealth has everyone on the same level........blah blah blah

The Swedish Institute of Trade reported in 2002 that "the median household income in Sweden at the end of the 1990s was the equivalent of $26,800, compared with a median of $39,400 for U.S. households". If Sweden were introduced to the U.S. as a new state, it would rank as the poorest according to these standards. This is in light of the fact that these numbers are gross values - before taxes - and Sweden has the highest taxes in the world. The same report also shows that Swedes fare lower than the lowest American socio-economic class, working-class black males.

This income tax, 55% of the Gross National Product, the highest income tax in the world, is also coupled with sales taxes, property taxes, and other excise taxes and tariffs. The Swedish sales tax, a "value added tax", ranges to 22.5% of items sold, on various goods including most foods. The total ownership of public goods by the Swedish government is roughly 64%, closing in on 70%, once you include all these other forms of taxation. That is not including government-owned means of production, which control about a full quarter of Swedish productivity.

They have a great unemployment idea too, read this one;
Workers can earn up to 570 paid days off a year (that's no typo - we know there are only 365 days a year - Swedes can earn more paid days off than days they actually work). So where are the poor, crazy, reckless people of Sweden? Living off Swedish tax money and taking up their inequitable residence in Swedish neighborhoods, and growing in numbers since the financial prosperity of the cradle-to-grave system doesn't discourage their lacklazy habits. They are often joined by productive Swedish citizens who simply take time off, after "earning" years of unemployment benefits. These categories, since they are subsidized, are not officially considered "unemployed" in most Swedish statistics, even though both demographics do no actual work. After making the observation that loons don't wander the streets of Sweden, P.J. O'Rourke commented in his book "Eat the Rich" - "The last time I walked through Gamla Stan, I didn't wonder where the crazy people were. In Sweden the craziness is redistributed fairly.

Ya I'm with you....socialism works! but not here, and we have to make sure it stays that way. If some lovely friend of yours has the idea that socialism is a good idea then you can let them know there are places in the world where they can enjoy socialism to the max, but not here. We weren't founded on it because it's not democratic governance and not for or about the people, it's for and about the enrichment of the government and stepping stone to dictatorship. China's a good example of what happens when you have a dictatorship, maybe Hillary should move to China?
