Hillary got quite upset when Bernie accused her of being a Wall Street Puppet. Said that Bernie was running a "smear campaign". Yet the truth speaks for itself as the article shows.
Clinton is completely beholding to Wall Street.
I can't imagine why anyone would support a candidate that takes such money to this extent.
Wall Street and corporations are fiscally conservative. They don't just throw chunks of money at politicians because they "like" them. Until Hillary justifies her major donations, we have no reason to believe that she isn't a puppet.
All Hillary would have to do is comply with the request to release the transcripts of the speeches she made for Wall Street. To say she will think about is double talk meaning not on my life would I do that. Double tongue Hillary ssssssssssss<

So working for and being paid by any Financial Services Firm makes you a puppet ?
Hillary was paid a fee for speaking - I am sure they did not send her the content of her presentation and instruct her not to deviate from script. It's called a job !
Are you a puppet for Starbucks if you work there ? Hillary is a powerful person with a unique set of experience - she commands six figure speaking fees - that does not make her a puppet. It makes her savvy that she can deliver a message to powerful people an audience that many not normally vote Democratic.
Bernie know his supporters distrust Wall Street but a war of words on Wall Street is blatantly unproductive - Is the public going to be happy if the stock market sheds 10 or 15% if Bernie is elected ? If companies increase lay-offs ? Wall Street may need more regulation but it does not help the public to demonize institutions that provide the Lungs for the US Economy.

The fact that she can only come up with this answer when asked about it "-I'll look into it", shows that her PR people are at a loss.

Being paid tens of millions of dollars by the richest people in the country when she was planning to run for president constitutes a conflict of interest. How can she serve the public faithfully? Big money in politics is completely destroying the American democracy.
They are buying influence and know they are getting a good return on investment.

Hillary Helps a Bank—and Then It Funnels Millions to the Clintons
The Swiss bank UBS is one of the biggest, most powerful financial institutions in the world. As secretary of state, Hillary Clinton intervened to help it out with the IRS. And after that, the Swiss bank paid Bill Clinton $1.5 million for speaking gigs. The Wall Street Journal reported all that and more Thursday in an article that highlights huge conflicts of interest that the Clintons have created in the recent past.
