Hillary calls for higher taxes on the wealthy...
It should be the call of every Democrat. Also, I think our Congressmen and Senators and all our politicians should be prohibited from investing in the Cayman Islands, Jamaica, Bermuda, Luxembourg, or any other country if they are going to represent the people of this country. Just my opinion.

Hillary Clinton CGI Speech Calls For Higher Taxes For Rich People
<snip>
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton offered a strongly-worded message to the rich at the Clinton Global Initiative Monday –- help grow your countries.
The former first lady addressed an audience of leaders in the philanthropy, business and politics sectors on day two of CGI, a three-day conference that aims to tackle the world’s most pressing problems. In keeping with this year’s theme of “Designing for Impact,” an effort to alleviate global poverty and health issues, Clinton urged struggling countries to tax equitably and to lean on the wealthy.
"One of the issues I have been preaching about around the world is collecting taxes in an equitable manner, especially from the elites in every country," Clinton said. “It is a fact that around the world the elites of every country are making money. There are rich people everywhere, and yet they do not contribute to their growth of their own countries.”
