Were going to get it from the wealthy, she said, from the people whove done very well in this economy, even during the Great Recession.
"These guys are geniuses at evading taxes," sending money through the Bahamas or Bermuda, said Clinton. That is corrosive to our democracy, she said. Ive been pretty worked up about a lot of this.
SETTING: Abraham Lincoln High School in Council Bluffs, Iowa.
CROWD: An estimated 400-500 supporters standing in a corridor under a brass statue of Abraham Lincoln, a crowd that spilled up a staircase.
REACTION: Frequent applause and a woman dressed as Wonder Woman who tried to excite the crowd with chants before Clinton arrived.
