Ironically that's my problem with Hillary Clinton. Let's at least be honest with ourselves. Why would a institution like the Clinton's who have amassed a 60 million dollar fortune "serving the public" in a corrupt economic system they helped create want to address any issue that fundamentally changes that system? Her campaign is being funded by the Wall Street banks and global corporations that spend billions to keep our current corrupt economic in place.

If you like the current system fine, vote for Hillary. But if you're tired of the economic class war being waged on the poor and middle class stop believing in fairytales. There is no chance in hell Hillary Rodham Clinton is going to betray the system and the people who made her millions of dollars...
