More quotes by Elizabeth Warren
Сount dollars, not pennies. Look at the big-ticket items, in your budget.
Elizabeth Warren
My mother saved our home with a minimum wage job. But in the 1960s, a minimum wage job would support a family of three above the poverty line. Not today. Not even close. I understood right then that people can work hard, they can play by the rules, and they can still take a hard smack.
Elizabeth Warren
I talk to nurses and programmers, salespeople and firefighters - people who bust their tails every day. Not one of them - not one - stashes their money in the Cayman Islands to avoid paying their fair share of taxes.
Elizabeth Warren
Look around. Oil companies guzzle down the billions in profits. Billionaires pay a lower tax rate than their secretaries, and Wall Street CEOs, the same ones the direct our economy and destroyed millions of jobs still strut around Congress, no shame, demanding favors, and acting like we should thank them. Does anyone here have a problem with that?
Elizabeth Warren
It's powerfully important that our kids get an education in personal finance.
Elizabeth Warren
We lose eight children and teenagers to gun violence every day. If a mysterious virus suddenly started killing eight of our children every day, America would mobilize teams of doctors and public health officials. We would move heaven and earth until we found a way to protect our children. But not with gun violence.
Elizabeth Warren
You didn't have to worry that marauding bands would come and seize everything in your factory and hire someone to protect against this because of the work the rest of us did.
Elizabeth Warren
Washington is rigged for the big guys - and no person has more consistently called them out for it than Jon Stewart. Good luck, Jon!
Elizabeth Warren
Nobody's safe. Health insurance? That didn't protect 1 million Americans who were financially ruined by illness or medical bills last year.
Elizabeth Warren
College students today are drowning in debt, and it is hurting them and hurting our economy. We must find a way to help families pay for college without condemning them to a lifetime of indebtedness.
Elizabeth Warren
I'm going to do everything I can to help Hillary Clinton get elected and I'm going to do everything I can to make sure that Donald Trump never comes within shouting distance of the White House.
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
We don't win what we don't fight for.
Elizabeth Warren
President Obama believes in a country where we invest in education, in roads and bridges, in science and in the future, so we can create new opportunities so the next kid can make it big, and the kid after that, and the kid after that. That's what president Obama believes.
Elizabeth Warren
Women tend to vote the economic interests of their families and to speak out on family economic issues. For men, there's often much more focus on the idea of personal failure: If I'm not winning this great economic game, it must be my fault.
Elizabeth Warren
I don't like credit cards. Let me triple underline that.
Elizabeth Warren
Money is bounded we only have so much of it. Love goes on forever.
Elizabeth Warren
Donald Trump is a threat economically to America.
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
This country isn't working for working people. It's working only for people at the top. That's not the American dream. That's the American nightmare.
