We do not need an untouchable class who is above the law. Hillary is an untouchable.

Encouraging employers to do something is one thing. Libs don’t stop at “encouragement” though, and will follow thru with a “mandate.”

Hillary’s idea is useless and she knows it. It just sounds good to the liberal minions.

Wouldn’t this encourage higher executive salaries and higher bond interest to avoid having to pay higher employee salary?

Yea just like the Obama plan for GM.
Steal the stocks from the people who own them and give it to the unions

If the employees invest in the company they work for then they deserve a share in the profits else they are mere employees. Corporate stock and bond holders won’t be willing to share with non investors.

Great! So the Clinton foundation is going to share its profits and make its hard working employees rich!

There’s a new idea!

Anxiously awaiting her tome on risk-sharing.

You first, Hillary. Start with giving 40% of your earnings since 2000 to charity. Hello? Hello, Hillary?

This is anecdotal, I haven’t done a study. I have noticed that about 50% of the people that are offered participation in a 401K decline to sign up, leaving 5 - 10% that the company is willing to match sitting on the table.

She has an extensive history of risking nothing and sharing in the profits doesn’t she? I think her and Bill’s grand plan is to become the first trillionaires without actually working for it.

The 80’s called. They want their Employee Stock Option plans back. How about bringing back Tuition Reimbursement?

They don't have any profits to share, as they manage near the edge, covering their expenses. First class Travel, lobster/caviar/etc, penthouse suites, slush/hush funds.
