Post I saw on another forum: "Obama is more out of touch than Romney with the American people"...

17. It's good to be Mitt

He will say whatever the party line is. He has selective memory when it comes to Romney Care. People don't understand how sleazy the leveraged buyout business is. Look at Bain Capital's involvement with the Dunkin Doughnuts IPO. A consortium of leveraged buyout companies bought Dunkin Brands from the family that founded it. They put the cost of borrowing the money to buy the company on the books of Dunkin Brands. When they brought it public, that cost was put on the books of Dunkin Brands. On top of that, they decided to pay themselves a 500 million dollar dividend. The common stock holders got nothing. I bought some shares of Dunkin Brands and got out of it when I realized it was a couple of billion in debt. Some of the companies, that Bain had purchased couldn't handle the debt and went under.

Nothing they did was illegal, but it's a sleazy business with rules that were made by people like Mitt in the top one percent. So you have people working very hard at the Dunkin Doughnut stores for low wages and you have people like Mitt. Bain moves wealthy clients money around in order to game the system. How much of the 500 million did the workers are Dunkin get? Nothing! Mitt is not exactly and entrepreneur. He would have started a company where they produce something that created lot's of jobs, but he decided to go for the easy money. There really should be more regulation of the leveraged buyout business.
