So...lemme get this straight
« on: May 22, 2012, 06:16:08 PM »
GETTING money from wall street and investment firms, in the manner of campaign contributions OK.  No jobs created, merely money passed over from private to public hands, that's OK  (Obama and company receiving the highest amount of Wall Street contributions then any other, Romney included....which ironically includes a higher contribution to Obama from Bain, than to Romney....that's OK)

But actually working to create and/or lead investment firms and companies, actually creating jobs, and getting money one earns from those actions of job creating and profit making.....that's supposed to be BAD

Buying a company, stripping it of assets, firing the workers and selling it off is BAD.

Romney closed as many as he started. The goal is simply to make the most money in the shortest time at the lowest cost.

Of course now the trick is demonstrating how Romney did all that.  Here's a hint, AFTER he left, doesn't quite work.  His background is as not just as a successful business man, creating employment for thousands, but taking struggling enterprises, and turning them around to be a success, be it in the private sector or as an publically elected executive.  You may call that "bad", but in the world where the rest of us live, that's good

Most of the rest of the country is likely to agree
