So grandma and grandpa are on the dole?
So fatherless kids are on the dole?
So disabled Americans are on the dole?
This is what accounts for 43 of that 47% slick. The rest is trailer park trash and the struggling poor.
Who do you want to die in teh street?
Grandma, grandpa, fatherless kids, disabled Americans, trailer trash and or struggling poor?

Since people are any nation's greatest asset only a ship of fools would not provide healthcare in order to maintain that asset in top condition.

Yes, they help save jobs, because they just love the American worker......the way an alligator loves slow moving prey......

Maybe I am being a bit harsh on him...I am sure he knows alot about business and money. But he was not very nice to us 47% either. And I do not think he is in the same league as his father, who ran a major car company.

Nope, not at all. Actually, even Daddy didn't "build" American Motors, he just ran it for a while. And, IIRC, it didn't last long after his time there.
No, businessmen who actually did "build" great companies that employ substantial amounts of people and lasted a long time are folks like Carnegie, Ford, Gates.....you know, guys who actually did start with nothing, or next to it, and built something huge.
Mitt Romney is no Andrew Carnegie. That is an absolute joke.

I trust by now you all recognize Romney for the empty suit that he is.

He's not a robber baron?
Funny I was thinking about creative destruction and AMC came to mind.

No, he's a piglet. The Robber Barons may have had their faults, but they did, to a large degree, help build a great nation. Mitt Romney has built nothing but fat offshore bank accounts.
AMC was eaten by Chrysler.

Another case for creative destruction
Aren't they still held by a venture capitalist company?
