Hillary is part of the establishment...just like OG Bill Clintion, both Bushes, and even Beloved Barack Obama...all of these candidates are bought out by lobbyists and have them as a priority over the American people...this country is run by corporations and because of this it has total disregard for the lower and middle class...meaning that a vote for Hillary ensures that Wall St keeps siphoning money from hard working Americans and basically causing everyone to work to an exausted heap with no real benefit or gain.
History of Labor from US Labor Statistics. This began with Reagan, and continued with GOP written and diced up bills. Do the research on WHY good paying American jobs have been oursourced since Reagan's era and beyond. Many sold us out, not just one party - Fascists.
