..."free stuff" like getting more than 100K per year for doing nothing for Bain Capital.

..."free stuff" like getting a 70K+ tax deduction for your dressage horse.

..."free stuff" like raiding a pension fund and loading up a company with debt to the point of bankruptcy so you can walk away with 10x your original "investment".

You know, free stuff like that...

is akin to politically brainwashed believing a fascist drug addict over 99% of the global climatologists telling us that today's global warming is man made.

They are politically brainwashed.

It's Mitt that raids a company, aided by MILLIONS in free money from tax payers.
