In reply to the discussion: Dear Bernie one way to make yourself insignificant is lumping in [View all]Depaysement
(1,835 posts)Bernie should not have lumped the Koch Brothers in with the Clinton Foundation. There are real differences. Of course, it seems like he wasn't trying to do that; he seemed to be trying to segue the conversation to denounce republican megadonors like odious Adelson and the Kochs.
Instead, we can just look at some of the Clinton Foundation contributors, which is a laundry list of large corporations, Wall Street firms, superrich moderates and liberals, few of whom have income inequality on their list of concerns. You know the likes of the Gates, Exxon, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Haim Saban, Coca Cola, Goldman, Morgan Stanley and on and on it goes. All folks who thrive under the current system of income inequality and return a pittance as their penance.
Nothing is for nothing, brothers and sisters.
