No it does not work that way. You cannot claim "What is wrong with wealth" then condemn your political rival for doing the same. I know it bothers GOP/Tea Party/Libertarians that they don't own a monopoly on what constitutes a good market.
Now if you want to argue that Hillary is more of a Mitt Romney liberal, that still does not negate the right side of history which liberals have been on.\. I can agree that she has not been on her messaging say like Obama was and is.
Don't defend wealth with "they do it too".
The top and the GOP are to blame. They played tug of war 30 years ago with blackmail which made everyone else hostage and forced government to play their game. You are not going to get away with painting both parties as the same.
Let me lay it out for you. Liberals for the most part, and I don't speak for all, are not anti private sector. We are not against pay differences. We are against the 30 year trickle up class warfare started by the top against workers.
I don't care that she makes that per speech. I don't care that my bosses who owned the businesses I have worked at in my work history make more than me. I do care about the gap. If the left is guilty of anything it is our voter apathy which has allowed our politicians to be pulled to the right. But our empathy as voters is there.
You are stupidly assuming any inequity is bad. The issue isn't arguing no wealth at all, the issue is the climate in which we live.
