So Anthony you want to put Mitt Romney in charge. Romney is the " Godfather of Outsourcing ". Romney made hundreds of millions of dollars sending our jobs to Communist China and now Romney says ," if you elect me I'll get tough on China ". Sure Mitt, now that you have your multi millions hidden in overseas accounts to avoid paying your fair share of taxes, you NOW promise to do the ethically right thing for our Nation. How can a man take our workers jobs, pensions and healthcare away from them and reward himself millions in " Special Dividends " and sleep at night. I couldn't. CEO greed like Romney's is whats wrong with our economy and voters want to reward him ??? In 1980 the average CEO made 40 times more than the average blue collar worker and in 2010 its 343 times more. Wake up people, dont you see what the greed at the top is doing to the middle class ? Romney's company Bain Capital just stole more of our jobs in Freeport, Ill. The Sensata Co. made over $500 million in profits last year producing auto parts, but the average worker was making $17 per hour and Romney's company realized that, if they sent those jobs to Communist China, they could more than quadruple their profits for their top investors, by having the Chinese make the parts for $1.40 per hour. So Romney's company brought the Chinese workers up to Illinois, so our workers could train them and once the training was over, fire our workers and send the jobs to good old Communist China. Romney said he was amazed at how the Chinese worked so hard in deplorable conditions for pennies. Romney made millions watching this assault against humanity. A True Leader would have stood up against this. If Romney wins the election, Who are his top investors now ??? Is this the kind of Leader you want as our President ??? Is this how we " Save the Country " ???Response to Its time to send Obama home to save the country....: I am not a political person. I watched elections when I was younger and read 3 newspapers and countless magazines every month. I watched Walter Cronkite TWICE a day, at 6 then again at 11.... I must speak up, now that the country is at the precipice of destruction..... In 2008 Obama said he would make a change...he was correct he made a change for the worse. I am only a dumb BSBA graduate in Business, but I was in business for 45 years. If you are loosing money...you must plug up the leak. It is true you must spend money to make money in business....but you must have a reasonable PLAN. The Obama administration has no plan and they continue to spend money, foolishly. If you are losing money, you must plug up the leak...not make more holes to let the money out faster. We have done irreparable harm to our country by spending,... spending and borrowing.....Future generations will be burdened tremendously..... You can not run a business indefinitely by borrowing...any one in business knows that. eventually the note holder will want re payment...WITH Interest...Why don't our legislators see this? The STIMULUS programs are a PAY OFF to the citizens. They think if everyone gets some money they will keep quiet...WHAT A JOKE. Business is the creation of goods and services, the payment of money for those goods and services,,,and both the provider and consumer are satisfied. STIMULUS dos not create business,it only created more money and debt. STOP..!!!!!...ENOUGH!!!!.... Obama and the Socialist Democrats think SIZE MaTTERS....Bigger Government is better...not true. Why can't they see that Socialism, DOES NOT WORK....It took down USSR....It impoverished China....Cuba and Albania are the only two Socialistic countries in the world and look at them..... If you read the book.." Throw Them All Out"...you will want to do just that...throw out the crooked politicians who have robbed our economy while making personal fortunes.....Nancy Pelosi is now worth $20 million due to her Visa stock and her manipulations in Congress.....Harry Reid made a fortune in RE while making RE legislation....Obama gave out $14 Billion to his campaign contributors from the Dept of Energy for phony GREEN loans and grants....His people got $14 billion of a $20 billion program and some of them are declaring bankruptcy after less than one year after getting the money....and do not have to pay anything back....! The Republicans are disgusting, too...WE had 12 years of Bush Presidents in office. They did NOTHING to get us off oil...which is their bread and butter,.. being Texas Oil men. If they had pushed alternate energy more diligently we could tell OPEC,... to take a hike. Read " Energy Victory". It tells you how we can end our dependency on foreign oil. To create business...we need leaders. We have none in Washington. All they do is fatten their own pockets. Its time to create a Space industry, that will increase our technological base, create jobs for Americans ( The Apollo Program employed 400,000 over 8 years). Read " Colonies in Space" which described how Space Colonies in the Lagrange points in space can build solar collectors to beam FREE microwave energy back to earth....and SELL it to any country on earth....yes actually make MONEY in space, not pouring money down a hole like NASA did on the Space Shuttle and now the International Space Station......two examples of government mis- management. Want to get to Mars at 1/10 the price and in 10 yeasr in stead of 20-30?...Read "The Case for Mars".... Also Commercial business has gotten the word that money can be made in Space...Look up Spacex and Virgin Galactic...they will make money in space, while NASA bungles things like they did since Apollo. Its time to turn out these money grubbing politicians out.... If not, then move to Mexico, where several of my friends have gone...they can't make it in USA, not under these conditions.

Posted by anthonytbarbuto What is the number one thing, that you like about Mitt's plan and platform? I'm curious to know what anyone see's in Romney. Please answer without mentioning Obama's name. I'm not looking for.... Obama did this or Obama didn't do that. I want to know, what Mitt has stood for that makes you think he will be better than Obama. |
