Hillary Clinton has earned at least $12 million in 16 months since leaving the State Department, a windfall at odds with her party’s call to shrink the gap between the rich and the poor. Clinton’s income since her resignation as secretary of state in February 2013 is derived mostly from her latest memoir, speeches and paid appearances at corporate retreats, according to an analysis of data compiled by Bloomberg. At least 12 organizations that previously booked President Bill Clinton -- who has been paid almost $106 million in speaking fees alone since he left the White House -- also hired his wife. Among them: Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and the National Association of Realtors. With a prospective 2016 presidential candidacy in her future, she keeps tight control over her events. In one university contract, Clinton retained the right to approve her introducer, program, moderator and the set, and she limited to 50 the number of pictures taken on a rope line. Her earnings represent a fraction of the Clinton family’s total income and yet were large enough to rank her not only in the top 1 percent of the nation’s earners but in the top one-hundredth of the 1 percent.

I don't know what's more sad...
Democratic political leaders who decry businesses and corporations as greedy, and then charge tens of thousands of dollars to smile and read a speech that some assistant probably wrote
or
People who shell out tens of thousands of dollars to have a political leader smile and read a speech that some assistant probably wrote

Yeah but does she own a horse?

I hope she runs. She had better use some of them bucks to buy off E. Warren...or she'll sorely regret it. Or at the least promise Warren Sec. of HHS.
She's wily; covering all the bases. She'll watch the political tides and then decide. If Conservatives win the Senate and clip Obama's Regulatory wings, and the economy rockets...she'll cash in a hit the talk circuit. If Conservatives blow it...she'll see if Obama/Michelle goes Warren; and if they do...curtain for the Clinton team.

Yeah but I'll bet that she only earned 77 cents to every dollar Bill earned. And that's probably because of the GOP.

I believe the idea is that the poor should earn more - not that the rich should earn less. But hey go ahead attack attack attack.

She's earning so much, I would hate for another run in the White House to bankrupt her again so if she runs for President again I will vote against her so her descendants won't have to suffer through debilitating poverty.
