poorandstupid.com ALWAYS HYPOCRISY, ALWAYS Why is this story about Hillary Clinton not evidence of the revolving-door corruption of influence peddlars who alternate between the corporate and governmental spheres? From Newsday: Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton wants Wal-Mart to contribute to health insurance for its employees - but can't recall if she pushed for worker benefits during six years as a paid board member for the nation's largest retailer. "Cities and states are saying we can't keep holding the bag here," Clinton said yesterday, praising a new Maryland law requiring Wal-Mart to spend at least 8 percent of payroll on health benefits or contribute to insurance plans for the poor... Asked if she had advocated better benefits while serving as a board member with Arkansas-based Wal-Mart from 1986 to 1991, Clinton replied, "Well, you know, I, that was a long time ago ... have to remember," adding that "obviously I believe every company should" contribute to benefit plans. Thanks to reader Jill Olson for the link.
