Hillary's going to fight insurers & Big Pharma?

She said in the debate that they were her enemies. I guess taking huge sacks of cash from your enemies might seem normal in her world, but for most of us not living the lifestyles of the rich and famous, it is not.

While I don't care for the source, I've uncovered nothing to refute the information in the link. Anyone who can disprove HRC is on the take from health insurers and Big Pharma, please provide verifiable proof (i.e. something other than a press release from her campaign underlings).

I'll just leave this here... http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/hillary-pretends-drugmakers-insurers-are-her-enemies/article/2574543

Sounds like she's been bought and paid for by her so-called "enemies".

probably one of the reasons I don't have 50k posts on DU is that I'm out in the field, fighting for what I believe in, rather than sitting around and talking about it. I've looked this field over, tried to stay open minded, and determined that there are only 2 viable candidates. One is a progressive, while the other is parading around espousing progressive notions while being on the corporate dole.

Attack the messenger all you want, but Hillary is a shill for Big Pharma, health insurers, and big banking/investment firms. The very people who enslave the masses, and she's in bed with them. If you're ok with that, I don't really know how to respond.

If it comes down to Hillary vs Jeb, the middle class and poor will continue to get screwed 6 ways to Sunday. FSM help us all...

I'm just jealous of all the action she gets.

I also don't have 50k posts, and spend time on the trail. I guess I'll see you out there.

Hillary's been getting a total free pass on how her BIG-donor base are exactly the
same interests that she claims to want to "reign-in" and told to "cut it out!" .. it's
disgusting that she gets away with this, and SOMEONE needs to call her on it, asap.

But maybe she'll surprise us and reverse a career of cozying up to her corporate interests

Hope and Change, or Hope for Change?

anyone who is receiving a Senator's salary and whose spouse is receiving a Presidential pension (and lavish benefits) and cries about being "flat broke" is not someone who can relate to working class & poor Americans. Little Miss Silver Spoon just couldn't hack it on a half mill a year with all expenses paid? Cry me a goddamn river...

Try cutting it on the $53k a year that the average American family makes, then we can talk...
