(32,015 posts)you are really missing it here in your blind adoration for Hillary. This is sad because I have always seen you as an exceptional DU poster and writer.
We are in this "financial mess" as you put it because capitalists DO NOT CARE about anything but the money. The Kochs' and their brethen have broken the unions through PR campaigns, co-opting the churches, and taking over the media. They could care less whether they are paying a woman, a black, or a white man less - as long as they get away with paying them less. Hillary's husband Bill did not help that by signing NAFTA which resulted in more than a million jobs being shifted right out of this country. The pitting of groups against each other is certainly not helping anyone but mass layoffs is the way people loss their footing and slip into the underclass - no matter what your race, creed, or color.
