So all the people who have 401ks invested in the stock market are on the same level as the Clintons

who have made millions in speaking fees and consulting fees from Corporations, Wall Street Firms, etc.?

Big $ has been paid to the Clinton Foundation, lobbyists have bundled big $ in contributions, and CEOs and Billionaires have given big money to the campaign and Super Pacs but people who invest in the stock market are on the same level as the Clintons?

Really? That is your defense...

Im retired now and I've rolled all my 401ks over into IRA's which pay me a couple of thousand bucks a month but I sure don't feel like a Clinton.
