The idea that you don't have to deal with the finance industry, you just have to pass laws and put wealthy people in jail is very attractive to many people, but it is just as narrow and unrealistic as you can get Israel to stop killing Gazans by issuing ultimatums and cutting off support. Your opponents are not passive actors without allies or resources to fight back, and they see no reason to bow to your demands. Clinton was speaking a corporate language they understand, thst you have to get out in front of a problem before it gets in front of you and you're no longer in control. But "compromise" with Ultimate Evil is never going to be forgiven.
