Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will collect a $225,000 speaking fee from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas in October, it emerged on Tuesday.

The massive expense was confirmed just weeks after the university formalized a 4 per cent tuition increase for each of the next four years. Rate hikes have nearly tripled tuition costs there since 2004.

Poor, broke Hillary needs the money... $50 million is just chump change...

Of course, that shows fiscally irresponsible such a person would be as president

I think she has screw up big time with the “we wuz broke” thing. More ordinary people will pick up on this than what she said about poor Ben Gazi. snort//>

The most amusing part of the story is the comments under it, especially the ones trying to defend her and saying that the criticism is just “Hillary bashing.”

I agree.
Without looking it up -as I remember, Reagan got a million from the Japanese to give a speech.
If it seems unfair to the in-debt students - let them complain to the University. - tom

As you said, she’s broke and understands the other poor people’s struggles...she needs that money.

I disagree with ANYONE getting a fee or expenses to speak at a graduation. They should do it for the honor. Let those colleges split the money among the grads as a refund on their tuition for successfully completing their program.

The silver lining.....hillary has dug a hole so deep that any competent politician should be able to destroy her chances (if they want to)

[Steely Tom]

Hey, give her a break.

Her life expectations are just not the same as those of ordinary people.

You wouldn’t understand.

Well fool chelsey may not want but her degenerate mother sure does. What can this benghazi criminal possibly say that would worth even five cents?

Can any Freeper with the ability Photo Shop Hillary in a Walmart uniform? I can think on a million opportunities to use the pic.

Hey, that’s that capitalism that they despise so much.

As UNLV is a state university, it is about as capitalistic as a request to the feds for funding to study climate change.

UNLS has about 25,000 undergraduates. So it comes out to $10 a head for tickets. I think the students would prefer a coupon for the Golden Corral or to the multiplex a bit more for the money.
