Part of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign you surely don’t recall is her plan for six different capital-gains tax rates, plus a passel of new regulations, to cure the alleged “short-term focus” of corporate America. She gave the speech in mid-2015, long before any voters were paying attention, then promptly dropped the subject. The topic doesn’t seem to have arisen in her Goldman Sachs speeches, which she tried to keep secret, though she did talk about how politicians need to say one thing in public and another in private.
