When "businessmen" run for the presidency, we should run away from them. [View all]
A country is NOT a business.
Successful businessmen are usually comfortable with cutting losses.
They think in terms of quarterly gains, profit-loss accounting.
The common-good is not of much concern to most successful businessmen.
Money,the pursuit of it, and the retention of it, is their goal..Their ONLY goal.
What WOULD Romney do to for the impoverished states?...Sell them?..Lay off the inhabitants? Self-deportation help for them to go back to their ancestral homelands of their great-grandparents?
Do the poor folks in those states really think that a republican businessman will have their best interests at heart.Think back to what the last Republican president did for them.
Successful businessmen do not "throw good money after bad". They cut their losses and let the chips fall where they may, without much (if any) thoughts of the futures of the people who get whacked in the process.
