===On accepting $675,000 from Goldman Sachs===
 
"But did you have to be paid $675,000?," Cooper asked. "Well I don't know," Clinton responded. "That's what they offered." [http://www.latinpost.com/articles/113498/20160204/2016-presidential-candidate-hillary-clinton-defends-acceptance-675000-from-goldman-sachs-speaking-fees-video.htm (LP)]
Hillary believes the defining economic challenge of our time is raising incomes for hardworking Americans. Hillary understands that in order to raise incomes, we need strong growth, fair growth, and long-term growth [https://www.hillaryclinton.com/issues/plan-raise-american-incomes/ (HC)]
**Put an end to “quarterly capitalism.” We need an economy where companies plan for the long run and invest in their workers through increased wages and better training—leading to higher productivity, better service, and larger profits. Hillary will revamp the capital gains tax to reward farsighted investments that create jobs. She’ll address the rising influence of the kinds of so-called “activist” shareholders that focus on short-term profits at the expense of long-term growth, and she’ll reform executive compensation to better align the interests of executives with long-term value.

**Impose accountability on Wall Street. Hillary will defend the Wall Street reforms put in place after the financial crisis—and she’ll go further. She’ll tackle dangerous risks in the financial sector and prosecute individuals and firms when they commit fraud or other criminal wrong-doing.
