to be President, so that the policies for which she advocates and the proposals she puts forth and the legislation she proposes as a Senator from NY will be embraced and signed.
Yes, Sen. Clinton needs President Obama, definitely, as does the country. She doesn't need him for any political reason having to do with a campaign, though, since her campaign has been suspended and she's formally backed him. Fantasy polling notwithstanding.
Well, yeah, that's sort of what I meant. I don't think she needs him for any political reason. Needing him to be president and needing him in general, are two different things. She doesn't need him to like her or do anything for her, but we are all (ok, well, not the wealthiest people) are better off with Obama as president.
Actually, wealthy people will do just fine with a more peaceful, more prosperous country, and probably a more stable world.
The greedy may suffer a bit. That's fine by me.
Well, in my book, wealthy (usually) = greedy. Bill Gates has been incredibly charitable in donating millions (billions?) of dollars. But let's not pretend that he got Windows on 90+% of computers by not being greedy.
Well, my sister lives in a two-doctor household that brings in a low six-figure income. I'd call them wealthy (and they'd agree) but I'd never call them greedy: they're hard-working and generous people who navigate a broken system in order to help others, while making a higher-than-average income in the process.
I know plenty of others who do pretty well, but I wouldn't say it was a result of greed.
Being in a financially rewarding profession doesn't make one inherently greedy. I have to disagree with the "usually" stipulation.
