If so, check her website.

Just realized you weren't actually looking for an answer.

Carry on.

This astoundingly destructive gap, turning the US into a third world country, has been steadily growing under both parties for decades. Hillary won't do shit about it because there are no measured, incremental fixes. It's that kind of thinking that allowed it to happen in the first place. This is why Bernie is our best shot at turning the shitboat around.

She only came out against the TPP agreement after it was pretty much baked in. So even if you raise the minimum wage, you could just lose more jobs overseas to cheaper labor. You can raise the minimum wage, and tax the wealthy more, but if you don't make the changes in trade to where we are protecting our workers, you are just chasing your tail.
