This is really sick. What a fucker. What a fucking fucker. This guy is such an asshole.

He's describing a fucking unsafe sweatshop, and he thinks it's worth retelling at a fucking fundraiser?

And he's a fucking sucker for actually believing that bullshit.

I suppose if he toured a Nazi death camp, he'd believe that the fences are there to keep Jews, Gypsies, Blacks, Gays... out, because the living conditions were so good, people were flocking to them to get in.

eat at home and stop spending at these restaurants, stop going to ball games, you can buy some instruments and entertain yourself or read a book the old fashion way, not on a computer, stop buying all these extras and don't move in these mcmansions, get a regular house with an affordable mortgage and then we'll see. It's us who really has the power!

Here's what I posit, everybody just stop going out and spending over over spending on all those extras that keep the economy going and those factories in China and we'll see what the story is of a lot of these billionaires. Buy gold and silver instead and sit on your stash. Americans spend too much or throw away too much money anyway on things that will depreciate in value. So stop buying those big tvs, don't go to as many movies, shop at the thrift store, no luxery cars, etc. we'll see then...

Also you have to take in the population factor. China did not really try to control their population until it was too late. Having so many people there means a lot of people will suffer. In America the population is under control, that's why many people here are able to have a good standard of living. This is why insane ideas about banning contraception and sex education is ridiculous because having too many people means having a lot of poor people like china.

[2Baiforev]

1st of all when you make progress you don't go BACK! I mean America has progressed into being a first world country with a high standard of living. Now why would we regress from being prosperous and having high standards to having low slave standards like China? Having a better standard of living is one reason why we are innovative and China steals our technology and intellectual property I mean this is insane This is like saying go from driving cars to horse and buggies or back to using candles

Americans built America and made it better for their children. If Romney's father didn't get lucky in business or sell out to the world banking system he would be just like everybody else and we can tell from the debates that its a good thing he inherited money because he's not the brightest bush in the bunch.

[2Baiforev]

the question is why do republicans hate ordinary, middle class and poor working Americans? Why do they want to turn a prosperous 1st world country into a third world country like China? Because the idiot republicans are greedy and don't want to pay decent wages and want everyone to be poor, enslaved and live miserable like people in China which has high suicide rates. This is how they care about people that don't have money. He is an insensitive, stuck up rich bastard.
