A difference here is that Clinton staffers are almost assured a payoff in the end if Clinton wins or loses. They can return to non-profit, local gov, state and or regional gov, and or special interest groups jobs and be assured a pay off for taking one for the team over the course of Clinton’s primary battles.

They are the true believers who are working with no pay. Or maybe they are independently wealthy and don’t need a paycheck?

Hillary loaned her campaign $5 million. So I guess the plan is that when Hillary raises more money, she will pay herself back from the campaign money. That means anybody giving money to Hillary’s campaign is now giving money directly to Hillary herself.

Of course anybody who bought Hillary’s book put money in her purse too.

The clintons are cheapskates. They don’t tip, they don’t pick up the tab, they don’t pay for anything if they can help it.

They have billions stashed away. They just don’t like to spend it. Let the little people suffer is their motto.

But our choice as peasants is a crazed, multi-position, hero dude, the klinton whackers or a black mooslim that is a product of Chicago politics. We’re definitely in a NO WIN and our death spiral has begun.

I’m calling BS on this. Everyone knows whatever the Clintons do/announce is well planned and orchestrated. This is a transparent ploy to show how “dedicated” her people are. Feh!

Inquiring minds want to know: Will she payback the $5,000,000 personal loan before she thinks of paying the staff?

This practice must violate some federal laws or labor regulations. These people must be paid at least minimum wage. Surely this practice violates the rat committment to prevailing (union) wages. SHE is also denying the IRS (us in HER terms) revenue. SHE is a thief, robber barron, and scab employer!

Can’t they be prosecuted for making excessive “donations in kind”?.
