In the third debate, Bernie Sanders suggested that getting paid $600,000 dollars from Goldman Sachs is wrong because it might influence her judgment when she is President of the United States. Hillary's righteous-sounding answer: "How dare you question my integrity" ('how dare you question my integrity' being a euphemism for 'how dare you suggest that there is anything wrong with what I did.'). Like all righteous-sounding objections, it was intended to silence the questioner. It didn't.

Bernie retorted that it would be 'naive' to believe that mega-corporations like Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan Chase, the big banks and pharmaceutical companies would not demand payback later. After all they work for profit. Everything they do is for profit. Profit is their raison d'etre.

Only yesterday, 28 January 2016, Hillary flew to Philadelphia to meet with Franklin Square Capital Partners. Sanders, who was on the campaign trail in Iowa, said, "My opponent is not in Iowa tonight. She is raising money from a Philadelphia investment firm," [4] "

Her meeting with Franklin Square Capital Partners CEO Michael Forman and his executive management team was not open to the media or to the public.

Surprise, surprise.
