What's objectionable is the idiotic conceit of that. What's objectionable is being so cloistered by wealth that one thinks one's own viewpoint should be forced upon the non wealthy so they can get rich, too. What's objectionable is being so cloistered by wealth that one is completely unaware of the conditions forced on the 99% by wages that don't keep most of us in safe housing with nutritious food and medical care and the ability to save for retirement.
Clinton needs to tell us what she's going to do about those conditions, not back away from the fact that people are willing to pay her more than most of us make in two years of hard work to speak for an hour or so.
If she keeps making the Romney mistake, she's toast.
