For years, Democrats have told Republicans that they will take them seriously in their putative quest to cut individual welfare payments and reduce business regulation when they seek to eradicate corporate welfare, too. Now, the party seems to be going in that direction, and . . .

Hillary Clinton will address New Hampshire residents and small business owners at a brewery here Friday morning, where she is expected to criticize Republican presidential candidates’ call to shut down the Export-Import Bank — a move she says would hurt small businesses.
Speaking at Smuttynose Brewery, clustered among kegs and crates of beer, Mrs. Clinton will accuse Republicans of putting the 164,000 jobs supported by the bank, which provides financing for U.S. exports, in jeopardy, an aide said. She will also say the bank has supported millions of dollars’ in exports by New Hampshire small businesses in the past five years.

As for why Clinton is talking about this: It couldn’t be because she wants to secure the donations of big businesses that rely upon the Ex-Im bank to boost their bottom lines?
