Setting the record straight

During their DNC speeches, Sen. Hillary Clinton stated some things that need clarifying:
--She would force energy companies to invest in the projects deemed worthy of the common good.
**Imagine if your business were told how it "must" invest its money...?! Also will she then also force technology (APPLE, MICROSOFT) and Pharmaceutical companies to invest in her worthy projects?? After all, both have had even LARGER profits this past year then oil.
--She claimed Americans "give" windfall profits to oil companies.
**No, we don't "give" them anything; we pay them for a product...actually A LOT of products. CLICK HERE
--Corporations are "shipping" jobs out of the country.
**So the Democrats answer then is to TAX them more (?), totally ensuring that the entire corporation is shipped out...? (remember it is companies and corporations which provide us with our jobs and our paychecks....hello employment)

Democratic keynoters spoke of the economy as if it were a static pie that can be divided fairly. Profit, competition, growth, international trade and self-reliance are treated as corrupt thoughts. Financial success, well, it is a moral failing apparently.

Bill Clinton once told us that the era of big government is over. This Democratic Party wants to make sure that era has its day once more.
