Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation bailed out Bain Capital

No, Bain Did Not Get a

Bain had both good luck and bad luck with its steel investments.


Special report: Romney's steel skeleton in the Bain closet | Reuters

Nevertheless, Bain profited on the deal, receiving $12 million on its $8 million initial investment and at least $4.5 million in consulting fees.


Bain had both good luck and bad luck ...

The point is either way Bain (Romney) insured itself to make a profit irregardless the outcome to the enterprise.

Irregardless, Gracie? That aside? Capitalism is as LIFE frought with pitfalls.

NO guarantees with EITHER unless Government interferes and picks winners and losers...and that just wouldn't be Liberty as the Founder's recognized, would it?

Imagine that?:eek:

Life. DEAL with it.

So?

putting it in his (own) bank account may not be what a nation requires for an expanding economy.

07-09 Great Recession curtailed in June 09 with positive GDP that has remained positive since that time to the present Quarter.

the Recovery from the deepest recession since the Great Depression is proof enough for the management of the economy to date by the present Administration.

Anyone else find it adorable that Rdean calls anyone indoctrinated?

It's like hearing TM call someone partisan, always puts a smile on my face.
 
Deany, do you know what the FDIC is?

FDIC: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is an independent agency of the United States (U.S.) federal government that preserves public confidence in the banking system by insuring deposits. The FDIC is headquartered in Washington, DC, with several regional offices and numerous field offices throughout the U.S. The agency is managed by a five-person Board of Directors, all of whom are appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate, with no more than three being from the same political party.

Forgiving millions in debt is a bail out.
 
Between Deanie and the little Bart boy mooning everyone this is a pretty funny thread. Too bad they have absolutely no understanding of business, bargaining or how insurance works.

No wonder it's important the Union do those things for them. :lol:

Bain & Company - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Facing financial duress, Bain Capital partner Mitt Romney was asked to rejoin and lead Bain & Co. as interim CEO. Bringing along two lieutenants from Bain Capital, Romney began a traveling campaign to rally employees at all Bain offices globally. Romney also negotiated a complex settlement between the Bain partnership and the firm's lenders, including a $10 million reduction in the $38 million Bain owed the Bank of New England,[10] which by that time had been seized by the FDIC and placed in Chapter 7 liquidation.

The Boston Globe pointed out that:

"Over several weeks, Romney managed negotiations with the banks and among the partners... The moment came when negotiations produced a package in which Bill Bain and the founding partners would give up control of the firm, turning back $30 million they had taken from the ESOP and $100 million in notes they held against the firm."

Romney’s plan involved "a complicated restructuring of the firm's stock-ownership plan, real-estate holdings, bank loans, and money still owed to partners".[11] To avoid the financial crisis that a buyout would have triggered, the group of founding partners agreed to return about $100M cash and forgive outstanding debt.[6]

looks like what actually happened is Romney got the partners to return a shitload of money.

I post this info because it's important to understand where Romney is actually coming from. Ignorant left wing turds won't bother to learn anything. They are simply too damaged from the indoctrination.

a $10 million reduction - You seriously don't understand a $10 million reduction IS a "bail out"? Hilarious. And you guys call me dumb. Ya gotta love it.
 
Romney has no history of producing jobs, only money for stockholders and gov't money. His plan for the US economy is total Pubcrappe, cutting taxes on the bloated rich, regulation of Wall St. and pollution and worker protection.

As Governor his record on business suqed, now he wants to do a W clone job on the non rich, raise military spending while destroying Medicare/aid (SS?), Health reform- and going after the nonrich to "add to the tax base". Pub dupes! Voting against themselves god knows why...

My God, you are such an amazing dumb fuck, it boggles the mind.

  • First, it was BAIN & COMPANY, not BAIN CAPITAL, get the thread title right dickstain.
  • Second, Romney renegotiated the debt with the bank. Happens all the time.

Obama to keep Bain Capital donations - Yahoo! News

President Barack Obama’s campaign won’t return $7,500 donated by two executives at Bain Capital, despite his repeated criticism of former Gov. Mitt Romney’s work at the company.

Glenn Beck Dissects President Obama’s Latest Fact and Lie Regarding Bain Capital | Video | TheBlaze.com

Ironically, despite making Mitt Romney’s former company Bain Capital and other private equity firms the target of its latest attack, the Obama campaign held a near-$36,000 per plate fundraising dinner at the home of Tony James, president of the nation’s largest private equity firm, Blackstone Group.

In August of 2006, just two months after closing the deal to purchase Travelport Ltd., Blackstone Group fired “scores of employees,” who, according to the Wall Street Journal, were “lugging boxes of personal belongings to their cars.” Blackstone laid of 841 employees, or 10% of Travelport’s workforce, and recouped its investment almost immediately.
 
Romney Attack Ad of 1994 - YouTube

Maybe he's just against government when it helps working men and women.

------------------------------------------------

Mitt didn't oppose TARP. But he did oppose saving millions of middle class jobs associated with the auto industry.

-----------------------------------------------

Special report: Romney's steel skeleton in the Bain closet | Reuters

Less than a decade later, the mill was padlocked and some 750 people lost their jobs. Workers were denied the severance pay and health insurance they'd been promised, and their pension benefits were cut by as much as $400 a month.

What's more, a federal government insurance agency had to pony up $44 million to bail out the company's underfunded pension plan. Nevertheless, Bain profited on the deal, receiving $12 million on its $8 million initial investment and at least $4.5 million in consulting fees.

----------------------------------------------

When you start going through Bain companies, it seems company after company recieved some kind of Government dole. Bailouts, incentives. Who made more? Bain from the Government or the American people from Bain?

Deluded much?

Deany didn't stick around long after this latest fail thread.

He's conferring and changing the toner in his fax machine.

This. I debunked this exact same shit some time ago when JoeAmpad was bleating on about this BS attack ad Kennedy made. Kennedy was going to Swift Boat Romney before Swift Boating was cool. rdean just assumed that the ad was factual without even contemplating that Democrats might lie for political gain.

Bain & Co. - the consulting company, not Bain Capital - was on the verge of implosion when Romney came in to save the firm. Bain & Co had loans from the Bank of New England. When a company is on the verge of bankruptcy, it often renegotiates its loan to avoid bankruptcy. This happens all the time in corporate America. The Bank of New England was in trouble because it made a whole bunch of bad loans in the New England region before the area when through a real estate bust. It had real estate losses of $6 billion. Not only that, but the Bank was loaning to itself to hide the losses and an executive was caught stealing from the bank. Bain had nothing to do with the Bank of New England's insolvency and bailout, unless you want to be a political whore and argue that the loan restructuring accounting for 0.17% of the bank's real state losses tipped the bank over the edge. But then you'd be a lying whore.
