Will Romney go back to Corporate Raiding once he loses the election?

[GreatDay]

What makes you think he ever stopped?

 

[JoeB131]

He'll have lots of time on his hands.

And there is still a middle class in this country.

If he can't destroy them...through politics..private industry still provides a way to fleece them.

Thoughts?

What would Romney's motivation be in destroying the middle class?
He's certainly rich enough, so that's not it. As of right now I don't see that he has any old buddies to payback for his success so that's not it. He's not written any books disclosing his resentment toward "American colonialism" so as far as we know that's not it.
Aside from more rhetorical bullshit what have you got?

Romney was rich enough when he was looting AmPad and GS Steel. So it was never really about the money, he was born rich.

It's about getting off a bit in his magic underwear that he can push people around.

"I like to be able to fire people!"

Just about says it all. I'm just amazed he said it out loud.

Romney has been doing nothing but run for President (and lose) since he became governor of Massachusetts. Think he'll try again in '16?

He doesn't need to.

Much like The DICK; Cheney's deferred-compensation (from Halliburton), during his Presidency, Romney is relying (more) on creative-accounting.​

September 2, 2012​

"Before Mitt Romney retired from Bain Capital, the enormously profitable investment firm he founded, he made sure to lock in his gains, both realized and expected, for years to come.

He did so, in part, the way millions of other Americans do — with the tax benefits of an individual retirement account. But he was able to turbocharge the impact of those advantages and other tax breaks in his severance package from Bain in a way that few but the country’s super-rich can ever hope to do.

As a result, his IRA could be worth as much as $87 million, according to his estimates, and he can continue to earn tax-advantaged income from Bain more than a decade after he formally left the firm."

Thoughts?

Will shallow discover the meaning of the term corporate raider before he gets out of high school?



Thoughts?

Now now Trajan.

I'm back in the industry that produced Romney's ilk. So I have a unique appreciation of exactly the mechanics that go into the fleecing.

From the inside.

Romneys ilk? yet you work for them..so you have no honor the same you accuse Romney of

No, I think this was his last chance.

2016, the Republicans will run Jeb Bush. They'll probably win because the Democrats don't have anything to match that with unless Hillary runs, and Hillary rubs people the wrong way.

My thoughts, the democrats are so desparate that they have to keep repeating the same lies. I think you need to go to Staples and buy some stationary and write a letter apologizing to Romney.

Well, since you brought it up...

PayScale - Staples, Inc. Employer Wages, Hourly Wage Rate


Computer Repair Technician (31) $7.55 - $12.82

Copy Center Specialist (25) $7.48 - $11.96

Retail Sales Associate (25) $7.25 - $11.33

Sales Associate (17) $7.37 - $10.26


Seeing the shit wages these guys make, maybe Romney owes THEM an apology.

"Corporate raiding?"

Is this from the Troothmaters School of Corporate Finance?
