    16 replies, posted
[quote=Business Insider]In a Thursday interview with Business Insider, Hillary Clinton pushed back on Bernie Sanders' accusations about her relationship with the financial industry. Business Insider's CEO and editor-in-chief, Henry Blodget, asked Clinton about Sanders' frequent criticism of her ties to Wall Street and why the financial industry is so demonized in the first place. "Why is it so bad to be close to Wall Street?" Blodget asked during the interview at Purchase College in New York. "I never can really tell what he's talking about," Clinton, the Democratic presidential frontrunner, said of her sole remaining primary rival. "It's just one of these sort of attacks that he pulls out all the time."[/quote] Source: [url]http://www.businessinsider.com/hillary-clinton-bernie-sanders-wall-street-2016-3[/url] ok
Person who is supported by wallstreet finds nothing wrong with wallstreet, who would have guessed. Of course she's not going to admit wallstreet is corrupt as fuck when big businesses are the ones funding her campaign.
The longer Hillary bad-mouths the progressives and millenials the more and more shit it's going to cause the party down the road. If Sanders doesn't beat her, she will very likely be the president, but that doesn't mean that she will get reelected, the millennial vote is growing while her 40-60 year old block is shrinking, the numbers say she should be quiet [editline]2nd April 2016[/editline] I really hate 90s centrist Democrats as much as I hate the tea party neocons
He's talking about the $150+ million in paid speeches of which it's contents were kept secret
Also her plans for wallstreet are either copies of bits of Bernie's plans or not actually fixing problems Take for example her line about bad actors in everywhere, one clear and easy place to fix would be the ratings agencies, they were complicid in lying to investors by stamping everything AAA, make them independent of the financial institutions, wall Street shouldn't own the agencies that rate wall streets bonds that's insane but it's what happened

The Big Three credit rating agencies are all independently owned businesses. The problem is the current business model, where the firm issuing the securities is the one paying the credit rating agency for the rating, which creates perverse incentives for the agency.
I feel that way about Hillary since she just up and changes what she wants to believe in
[QUOTE]"I never can really tell what he's talking about,"[/QUOTE] is the equivalent too [QUOTE]"I just put my fingers in my ears and I can't understand the noise"[/QUOTE]
pls hillary, if you would actually answer questions like this more tactfully I would respect you more. as of now I don't respect you and don't trust you.
time for some hearing aids you old witch
She could just answer the question, but nawww gotta shittalk bernie some more
"Whaaaat? No waaaay! Nuh uh! Who said that?" Hillary replied to journalists who asked her what she thought about Sanders' accusation that she is just a Wall Street patsy. She later went on to say: "I-I have no idea what y-you're talking about. At all. Sounds ridiculous! I m- I mean, me?! Come on!" gesticulating wildly and darting her eyes across every corner of the room.
She shouldn't even be running for the nomination if she's this clueless. That's just embarrassing.
Best way to prove your innocence? Play dumb.

Basically someone realised that if they just do w/e a bank wanted they would get all that bank's business and take in huge amounts of fees, any semblance of actually reading what they did was just a facade for investors and regulators They were as complicid as the banks in this. Basically I've read ideas such as a fund all the banks pay into that the agencies draw from to do their ratings, therefore a bank could shop around but the incentive for an agency to give a better rating isn't there There's more that can be done, I'm saying break the ratings agencies off from being there for the banks, I know they are independent businesses but their business model is get paid by the banks
Jesus i hope she drops out to make room for the nominee, at this point she's just embarrassing herself and her party
You can never tell what Bernie's talking about because you keep interrupting him you dofus :v:
