It truly is amazing on how far the left will go, when they have been proven wrong......

The truth is, Bain Capital helped MANY companies grow that are still around today.

Was Bain involved in companies that went bankrupt...yep sure was......

However, the "grows" far outweigh the "bankruptcies."


No matter what that left says....

That's what the video is about.

You mean make profit for hard working middle class people whose pensions and 401Ks invested indirectly or directly through Bain?

So you are asking me how a fictional person doing illegal activities which hurts the economy and has no taxes collected is similar to Bain that is real, legal, raised revenue for the government and had a net positive impact on the country???

Your problem with the left is that we state facts and prove you wrong, yet you still insist on republican dogma...

If you personally have a pension, 401K, or stocks/bonds in some kind of fund -- the odds are Romney made you money.

I wish we could still have horse buggy manufacturers and they were never laid off and went out of business about a century ago. But that is just not how the real world works folks. Companies NEED to compete, innovate and deliver to stay in business. Sometimes they can't. Would we really be better off if the original Virginia Company was still in business from 1607, kept alive, as inefficient as ever, by well meaning liberals taking money from winners to give to losers?

Yes, I've taught you a few things too. Teachers are humans not robots. I am sure a little research on your part could verify this.
