Hillary Clinton has made clear she intends to dramatically raise taxes on the American people if elected. She has proposed an income tax increase, a business tax increase, a death tax increase, a capital gains tax increase, a tax on stock trading, an "Exit Tax" and more (see below). Her planned net tax increase on the American people is at least $1 trillion over ten years, based on her campaign’s own figures.

Hillary has endorsed several tax increases on middle income Americans, despite her pledge not to raise taxes on any American making less than $250,000. She has said she would be fine with a payroll tax hike on all Americans, she has endorsed a steep soda tax, endorsed a 25% national gun tax, and most recently, her campaign manager John Podesta said she would be open to a carbon tax. It’s no wonder that when asked by ABC's George Stephanopoulos if her pledge was a "rock-solid" promise, she slipped and said the pledge was merely a “goal.” In other words, she's going to raise taxes on middle income Americans.

Hillary’s formally proposed $1 trillion net tax increase consists of the following:

Income Tax Increase – $350 Billion: Clinton has proposed a $350 billion income tax hike in the form of a 28 percent cap on itemized deductions.

Business Tax Increase -- $275 Billion: Clinton has called for a tax hike of at least $275 billion through undefined business tax reform, as described in a Clinton campaign document.

“Fairness” Tax Increase -- $400 Billion: According to her published plan, Clinton has called for a tax increase of “between $400 and $500 billion” by “restoring basic fairness to our tax code.” These proposals include a “fair share surcharge,” the taxing of carried interest capital gains as ordinary income, and a hike in the Death Tax.

But there are even more Clinton tax hike proposals not included in the tally above. Her campaign has failed to release specific details for many of her proposals. The true Clinton net tax hike figure is likely much higher than $1 trillion.

For instance:

Capital Gains Tax Increase -- Clinton has proposed an increase in the capital gains tax to counter the “tyranny of today’s earnings report.” Her plan calls for a byzantine capital gains tax regime with six rates. Her campaign has not put a dollar amount on this tax increase.

Tax on Stock Trading -- Clinton has proposed a new tax on stock trading. Costs associated with this new tax will be borne by millions of American families that hold 401(k)s, IRAs and other savings accounts. The tax increase would only further burden markets by discouraging trading and investment. Again, no dollar figure for this tax hike has been released by the Clinton campaign.

“Exit Tax” – Rather than reduce the extremely high, uncompetitive corporate tax rate, Clinton has proposed a series of measures aimed at inversions including an “exit tax” on income earned overseas. The term “exit tax” is used by the campaign itself. Her campaign document describing this proposal says it will raise $80 billion in tax revenue, but claims some of the $80 billion will be plowed into tax relief. How much? The campaign doesn't say.

This proposal completely fails to address the underlying causes behind inversions: The U.S. 39% corporate tax rate (35% federal rate plus an average state rate of 4%) and our "worldwide" system of taxation, which imposes tax on all American earnings worldwide. The average corporate rate in the developed world is 25%. Thirty-one of thirty-four developed countries have cut their corporate tax rate since 2000. The U.S. has not. Hillary's plan moves in the wrong direction.

The ability to tax is the ability to destroy. To all the hilary supporters, I wish you were the only ones who will suffer if this Evil is elected.

hedge funds gave hillary $49M for her campaign.
they gave trump $19k

Over the past couple of years hedge funds have given hillary personally $20M for 'speaking fees'.

So, just money for nothing.
she is in their pocket

Clinton bikini/niqab mural becomes black wall as Melbourne authorities win censorship battle

A mural of a scantily-clad Hillary Clinton created by an Australian artist was briefly changed into a Muslim woman dressed in a niqab, following a complaint by the local council. However, the latest makeover also left the authorities unimpressed.

After seeing the mural of the woman in the niqab, with just her eyes visible, which was created by a street artist known as Lushsux, Maribyrnong Council in Melbourne did not take kindly to the new creation.

A post on social media by Lushsux with the caption “Looks like the council wins” shows a council worker with a brush painting over the Muslim woman, so the wall is completely black in a move that Lushsux told RT was "pathetic."

The controversy originally started after Maribyrnong Council threatened Lushsux with a fine after he painted a mural of Democratic presidential candidate Clinton wearing a star-spangled swimsuit with $100 bills tucked into it. Lushsux said he got the idea from a meme on the internet and wanted to paint it so “the virality of the meme has now turned into the virality of the wall.”

However, not everyone shared his vision of the art he was trying to create.

“We believe that this mural is offensive because of the depiction of a near-naked woman, not on the basis of disrespect to Hillary Clinton, and it is not in keeping with our stance on gender equity,” the council’s chief executive, Stephen Wall, said.

Lushsux confirmed that the mural of the Democratic presidential candidate was not removed “because it was Hillary” rather because of her lack of clothes. At least, that’s what the council claim, though it’s something that he disputes.

“I don’t quite understand why that is offensive by any means. She is not naked,” he told RT.

Lushsux briefly had his Instagram account shut down, while he was given 10 days to remove the “offensive” mural by the council, which is exactly what he did. In its place, he created a painting of a Muslim woman wearing a niqab.

“I could have done her pantsuit that she always seems to wear in different colors, but I tried to think of a way to counter the narrative that they are saying something is offensive – a woman who is not even naked is offensive,” the street artist explained to RT.

“So I thought, why don’t I cover her with the niqab? If I do that, they can’t say it is offensive because it is a beautiful Muslim woman now. It is not Hillary Clinton.”

In an earlier Facebook post, he wrote that “no reasonable person would consider this offensive” after he had painted the mural of the “beautiful" Muslim woman, while adding that “If you do consider it offensive you are a sexist, racist, Islamophobic, xenophobic, uncultured and ignorant bigot.”

Lushsux also painted a mural of Clinton’s presidential rival Donald Trump, which he was also forced to censor by the local council. Originally entitled ‘The Dongald’, the street artist made amendments by painting what appears to be Clinton’s face on to a part of Trump’s body.

“Had to censor The Dongald, don't know if I just made it more offensive or not?” Lushsux wrote on social media. Meanwhile, he told RT that he believes there was less fuss made about the Trump mural because of public opinion being largely against the Republican candidate.

“It is counter to their narrative and it’s not something they find offensive,” Lushsux explained to RT. “They find that funny whereas someone on the other side of the political spectrum would say find Hillary funny and would find Donald Trump a bit rude,” he concluded.

Plenty of social media users gave their backing to Lushsux across various platforms. One Instagram user wrote: “So the council is happy to have semi naked Clinton but not a respectful pic of a Muslim woman.”

A Facebook post stated: “Haven't seen your work before but I love the fact you have a sense of humour and covered an ‘offensive’ bikini pic with a niqab clad beauty. Which is more offensive? A woman ‘au naturelle’ or a woman who is forced to cover up? Clever, very clever. Hope to see more of your work in the future.”

However, not everyone was complimentary of Lushsux’s work.

“FYI sexualising Hilary Clinton and depicting her in a swimsuit isn't provocative or cool, just sexist,” one Twitter user wrote.

So hillary was 'questioned' by the FBI.

During this questioning she was not under oath and no recordings of the conversation were made.

even though she lied repeatedly and then gave them a server that had 1000's of emails wiped, the CIA pressed no charges ............
