(1,252 posts)No, No, No! Well, her "No" creates the perception in my mind that there is something in those speeches that she doesn't want us to hear. It creates the perception that maybe she was serving the 1% but not the rest of us.
Fact: When you are a government official and are supposed to be held accountable to the constituents, then really it is a conflict of interest to go to these gigantic powerful interests and take their money for a speech. I don't believe - that it was for merely her words wisdom that the bankers hired her to speak. I believe they expected her to continue voting for things that were good for them which has often been bad for us.
De regulating the industries so we can all enjoy more wars. Endless wars. More fracking, more GMOs, more TPP trade like deals, More Keystone Pipeline types of things, more breaks for too big too fail banks. Hillary, I hope you will feel that the city of Flint is too big to fail too.
If I am wrong and the speeches reflect something else, why not release the transcripts?
