Presidential debate moderator Chris Wallace asked the two candidates to explain their plans to create more jobs and growth for the country. Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton said, “I want to have the biggest jobs program since World War II, jobs in infrastructure and advanced manufacturing. I think we can compete with high-wage countries, and I believe we should. New jobs and clean energy, not only to fight climate change, which is a serious problem, but to create new opportunities and new businesses.”

Clinton said she wants to help small businesses by raising the minimum wage and make sure that women are paid equally, and to “have an education system that starts with preschool and goes through college.” She promised, “I also will not add a penny to the debt.” Clinton says that she will raise taxes on people making over $250,000, yet her plan as presented on her website would cost taxpayers one TRILLION dollars.

Can you imagine paying taxes to stop changes in weather trends and paying for everyone’s education from preschool through college? How much will raising the national minimum wage cost in consumer price increases? And Clinton doesn’t practice what she preaches when it comes to pay equity.

The UK Daily Caller reports that the Clinton Foundation pays women 38% less than their male counterparts; in August 2015, the Washington Free Beacon reported she paid women in her campaign 23% less than men; and as a Senator, she paid women 28% less than their male counterparts for similar work.

Republican candidate Donald Trump said that he would renegotiate trade deals, like the North American Free Trade Agreement that sent American jobs to other countries, and bring jobs back to the United States. Trump said:

Look, our country is stagnant. We’ve lost our jobs. We’ve lost our businesses. We’re not making things anymore, relatively speaking. Our product is pouring in from China, pouring in from Vietnam, pouring in from all over the world.” Trump said, “We’re going to cut business taxes massively. They’re going to start hiring. We’re going to bring the $2.5 trillion that’s offshore back into the country. We are going to start the engine rolling again, because right now, our country is dying at 1 percent GDP.

The candidates are in stark contrast to one another. Clinton wants to create jobs at taxpayer expense-infrastructure, works programs like after WWII, jobs that fight “climate change.” In October 2014, Hillary Clinton said that government creates jobs, “Don’t let anybody tell you that it’s corporations and businesses that create jobs.”

This will cost taxpayers trillions and further turn America socialist. Trump is advocating the only plan that has worked; cutting taxes, the one that socialists and communists ridicule as “trickle- down economics,” the plan that allowed President Bill Clinton to balance the budget from the longer term dividends of the Reagan economic program.

Exodus 18:21 says to choose leaders “such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness.” Tax raisers are covetousness. They covet your money to their ends.

Have a blessed and powerful day!

Presidential debate moderator Chris Wallace said he wanted to clear up Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton’s position on border security and immigration reform. He said, “…in a speech you gave to a Brazilian bank, for which you were paid $225,000, we’ve learned from the WikiLeaks, that you said this, and I want to quote, “My dream is a hemispheric common market with open trade and open borders.”

So that’s the question…Is that your dream, open borders? Clinton tried to discredit WikiLeaks by saying that it was a Russian conspiracy to influence the U.S. elections, but she did say that “I do want us to have an electric grid, an energy system that crosses borders.” This ignores her stance on bringing in thousands of un-vetted immigrants from Islamic nations that support terrorism and from across the Southern border of the U.S.

Trump answered for Clinton, “She wants open borders. People are going to pour into our country. People are going to come in from Syria. She wants 550 percent more people than [sic the current “president”], and he has thousands and thousands of people.” Then Clinton deterred the talk from immigration to Russian conspiracy, but the fact remains that her immigration policy is a continuation of the current “president’s” but more as documented on her website.

As Homeland Security head John Roth told the Senate in March, “We may be admitting individuals who wish to do us harm.” This policy will continue under a Clinton Administration.

Moreover, the Center for Immigration Studies has analyzed the “president’s” immigration policy from data released by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The analysis concludes that since 2010, ICE has released 124 aliens who have been charged with 135 new homicides; some have been released multiple times.

In 2014, ICE released a total of 30,558 criminal aliens. These aliens had already been convicted of 92,347 crimes before they were released by ICE. As of July 25, 2015, a total of 1,607 aliens had been convicted of a crime after being freed by ICE. The total number of new crimes for which these aliens were convicted after ICE released them was 2,560, including: 298 dangerous drug offenses, 185 assaults, 40 weapons offenses, 28 sex offenses, 10 sex assaults, four kidnappings, two arsons, and one homicide.

It is obvious that these people do not wish to follow the law, nor do they want to assimilate as Americans. The political goal by Clinton is to promote anarchy to trigger socialist change. The Bible is very clear about how to handle immigrants. Exodus 22:21 says, “You shall neither vex a stranger, nor oppress him.” This is repeated in Leviticus and Deuteronomy. In context, Exodus 12:49 says, “One law shall be to him that is home-born, and unto the foreigner who sojourns among you.”

This is also repeated in Numbers and Leviticus. One law for all. In this context it is God’s law, but these people neither want to submit to the laws of the nation or to God’s laws. If they are here illegally, they have broken the law as their first act. Hard as it is, policymakers must address this, otherwise our country is in danger.

Have a blessed and powerful day!
