25. I don't think anyone as deeply entrenched

Dec 2015

in the 1% as Hillary is can be "moved to the left." I think that's naive. If she is elected president, she may try to mollify the American people, or at least keep them in the dark as much as possible in hopes of gaining a second term, but her substantive efforts will be decided by the oligarchs whose interests she serves and who are financing her current campaign for president.
