More quotes by Elizabeth Warren
People feel like the system is rigged against them, and here is the painful part, they're right. The system is rigged.
Elizabeth Warren
Donald Trump is a threat to who we are as a people.
Elizabeth Warren
Our number one responsibility is to protect Americans from terrorism, that’s our job, so being tough on terrorism is enormously important.
Elizabeth Warren
There are a lot of things that people say about Hillary Clinton. But nobody says that she doesn't know how to throw a punch.
Elizabeth Warren
It's pretty much how we get anything added to the curriculum. When parents said children needed to be computer literate, the schools started responding. The same thing is true of basic financial literacy.
Elizabeth Warren
Once kids get older, the list is longer. So here goes: Stay out of debt. Sometimes debt is necessary, to buy a home or to get an education, but not to buy a sweater or to eat out.
Elizabeth Warren
It is not the job of the Department of Education to maximize profits for the government at the cost of squeezing students who are struggling to get an education.
Elizabeth Warren
I don't like credit cards. They make overspending very easy. They can make life a lot more complex and stressful.
Elizabeth Warren
Part of my job is to make sense of all that I hear, and to retell it in a forceful way so that the decision-makers at Treasury can hear it. At least that's how I see it.
Elizabeth Warren
My response [to fear of being poor]was to study contracts, finance, economics, to plan, to have a goal, to work on that goal. To learn everything I could. I always poked at the things that scared me most.
Elizabeth Warren
We have to rethink how to teach financial education in the 21st century.
Elizabeth Warren
Accountability for the largest financial institutions on Wall Street is the bedrock for a strong economy. Hard-working families and honest businesses cannot survive in a world where the rules don’t keep the marketplace honest.
Elizabeth Warren
Barack Obama heard the American people.
Elizabeth Warren
The choice before us is simple. Will we continue to subsidize the dirty fossil fuels of the past, or will we transition to 21st century clean, renewable energy?
Elizabeth Warren
Israel has the right to shell Palestinian hospitals and schools out of self defense.
Elizabeth Warren
You built a factory out there, good for you. But I want to be clear. You moved your goods to market on the roads that the rest of us paid for. You hired workers that the rest of us paid to educate. You were safe in your factory because of police forces and fire forces that the rest of us paid for.
Elizabeth Warren
Balancing your money is the key to having enough.
Elizabeth Warren
The bankers might not have said it in so many words, but gradually their strategy emerged: Target families who were already in a little trouble, lend them more money, get them entangled in high fees and astronomical interest rates, and then block the doors to the bankruptcy exit if they really got in over their heads.
Elizabeth Warren
My mother said, if you don't have the cash, don't buy it. And on that, my mother was right.
Elizabeth Warren
You know, the old version was about balancing a checkbook. The new version is about the risks of debt, which is so much more widely available. So I think it's important that we design relevant financial literacy courses, and teach them starting early in grade school.
