Of course Hillary is going to raise taxes on the middle class. Who else is going to pay for all the refugees she's going to bring in?traderjake said:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ua13_gYQn0

"Donald Trump's campaign has released a video that falsifies Hillary Clinton's stance on taxes, the fact-checkers over at Politifact found.
The video, which shows the Clinton rally in Nebraska Monday, was posted to YouTube on an account called "Team Trump" and then was later embedded in a Trump campaign email.
In the video, Clinton says, "Trump wants to cut taxes for the super rich," to a loud chorus of boos.
Then she says, "Well, we're not going there, my friends. I'm telling you right now we're going to write fairer rules for the middle class. And we aren't going to raise taxes on the middle class."
But the video included subtitles that said exactly the opposite. It read, "We are going to raise taxes on the middle class."
The video's text asks "Wait. What?" before replaying the Clinton clip, modified and slowed down. As Clinton says again "we aren't going to raise taxes on the middle class," the subtitles read "we are going to raise taxes on the middle class."
The video ends with a shot of the Trump-Pence campaign logo, though it doesn't say that the video was sponsored or approved by the campaign.
In an appearance in Des Moines, Iowa Friday, Trump's vice presidential nominee Mike Pence repeated the video's false text statement -- "She was in Omaha just the other day and she actually said -- she actually said out loud 'we are going to raise taxes on the middle class.'"
Politifact noticed the discrepancy in the video and decided to ask Clinton campaign spokesperson Josh Schwerin about it.
Schwerin pointed Politifact to reporters' accounts of hearing the Clinton speech, as well as a transcript of Clinton's prepared remarks, which read: "We aren't going to to raise taxes on the middle class."
Politifact then went one step further and asked linguistics professors at the University of Chicago and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to analyze Clinton's speech with a computer program.
Their findings: Clinton definitely said, "We aren't going to raise taxes on the middle class.""

Their findings: Clinton definitely said, "We aren't going to raise taxes on the middle class.""
Here's their findings:
As you can see, the phoneme (unit of sound) highlighted in pink is an "n," though there’s not a "t." That still suggests she was trying for the word "aren’t."
Trying?
"It is pretty common for people to not release the final ‘t in word-final -nt clusters and is definitely not likely for someone to release the ‘t’in a three-consonant sequence like ‘ntg’ in ‘aren't going,’" Yu told us.
"In any case, since she did pronounce the ‘n’ in ‘aren't’, it is clear that she produced the negated form of the copula ‘are.’"
But left out the T which is the game changer
Edward Flemming, a linguistics professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, also ran the audio through Praat and came up with the same results.
But even if we didn’t have Praat, he said, context alone sways the argument in the Clinton camp’s favor.
Sways is not a definitive scientific analysis
"Also if she was going to say ‘we are going to’, wouldn’t she contract it to ‘we’re’, as she does a few words earlier?" Flemming pointed out. "To my ears, it is clear that she is saying ‘aren’t’."
To me, she needs linguistic lessons, not some smack apologists.
