Paul Lewis and James Ball expose the workings of the Clinton money machine. It certainly doesn't give the impression of being purely charitable:
"'One of the issues that I have been preaching about around the world is collecting taxes in an equitable manner, especially from the elites in every country,' Hillary Clinton told audience of the Clinton Global Initiative in 2012, when she was still secretary of state. 'It is a fact that around the world, the elites of every country are making money. There are rich people everywhere. And yet they do not contribute to the growth of their own countries. They don’t invest in public schools, in public hospitals, in other kinds of development internally.'
She added: 'And so it means – for leaders – telling powerful people things they don’t want to hear.'
A spokesperson for Hillary Clinton declined to comment about her family foundation’s receipt of money from donors with accounts in Geneva."
