Is Hillary Clinton Right About Trump Supporters? This Is What The Polling Data Says

I'm happy to discuss the serious economic plight facing so many in this country. I see first hand how serious it is - I work with people for whom an extra $40 in public benefits monthly is the difference between paying the bills and getting evicted. But it's absurdly, insultingly hyperbolic to compare it to actual slavery, and id be willing to bet those very same clients of mine would agree wholeheartedly. Except I would never be so idiotically insensitive as to ever make that comparison in front of them, because they would be appalled.

Google it. So many of the people I talk have called themselves wage-slaves. It isn't about being "Actual Slaves". I never once said anyone was an "actual slave". But things are getting worse for people, and that has resulted in success for Trump. Nobody cares about them, there is no safety net, and at the same time, we are churning out more billionaires. There are resources, but not if you concentrate them in the hands of a very few, that have no obligation to those that work for them.
