Conservative Refocus

By Barry Secrest

According to a recently published  New York Times article,  Hillary Clinton, who boasts a net worth of at least $13 Million dollars, has stated  that the top 1% of wage earners in America would have to be “toppled.”

In essence, this would mean that unless Hillary Clinton is the most grandiose hypocrite living on planet Earth, the former Secretary of State intends to topple herself.

But, when we consider the possibility of Clinton toppling herself,  it shouldn’t be that difficult at this point.

What with her Benghazi debacle, email server scandal, and her global financial initiative scandal which largely consisted of raping her own position as Secretary of State in order to glean billions from other nation’s leaders in the form of bribes, to alter US policy.

According to the Huffington Post:

“Hillary Clinton believes that strengthening the middle class and alleviating income inequality will require “toppling” the wealthiest 1 percent of Americans, according to a New York Times profile published on Tuesday.

The Times article quoted a host of Clinton confidants characterizing Clinton’s economic policy record as a populist agenda akin to that of Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.). That includes a view that the ongoing accumulation of massive wealth at the top of the spectrum is holding back the broader economy.

In a meeting with economists this year, Mrs. Clinton intensely studied a chart that showed income inequality in the United States. The graph charted how real wages, adjusted for inflation, had increased exponentially for the wealthiest Americans, making the bar so steep it hardly fit on the chart.

Mrs. Clinton pointed at the top category and said the economy required a “toppling” of the wealthiest 1 percent, according to several people who were briefed on Mrs. Clinton’s policy discussions but could not discuss private conversations for attribution.

The Clinton campaign told HuffPost they could not confirm the precise language of the quote, but did not distance themselves from its populist essence.”

Looking deeper, and while taking world history into account, Clinton seems to be staking out territory which stretches all the way into Marxist theory, and perhaps even to the left of Barack Obama.

Toppling the wealthy  was the foremost aim of Karl Marx who believed that all property should belong to the people with the state as caretaker and director of such property.

In essence, Hillary Clinton is making her case for abject Communism, despite the fact that she herself resides in top 1/10th of 1 Percenters.  If a more glaring example of hypocrisy exists, we have yet to see it.

The only question at this point should be; is there anyone who is not laughing at the absurdity exhibited by this woefully disingenuous political maven?
