She has painted herself as the person who fights for income fairness and middle-class workers. The Democratic lady told to the crowd of 500 people at the Futuristic Tool and Engineering event that she plans to invest in infrastructure, offer new tax credits, encourage corporate profit-sharing and paid apprenticeships. She promised she will do wherever it takes to bring the U.S. auto companies back, which are investing outside of the country in order to avoid the huge taxes, by...
