While Romney and the republicans want to take us backwards to the exact same old policies and agenda that of republican president George Bush left us with just four years ago....as Bush left office losing over 850 thousand people losing their jobs a month, millions losing their homes, Bush signed the Banksters bailout bill Oct. 2008
Huge increases to the Pentagon/military budget left us with TWO WARS draining our economy while giving huge tax cuts for the rich eating up our tax dollars Bush left us with over six trillion dollars more in deficit and Romney as all republicans will do the same ....It's no secret Romney wants to increase the Pentagon budget by trillions of dollars and to have a war with oil rich Iran, Libya wants to go back into Iraq Americans don't want more wars.....
Then the republicans scream as Bush did that there's no money left for a social safety net where WE want our tax dollars to go....republicans always leaving deficit is purposely done to say we can't afford Social Security or medicare Yet the rich are richer & the military has more for corporate imperialism.
Romney is even worst, as a ' businessman' (Bain) he out sourced jobs to China. Romney says, "I like to fire people' - "corporations are people" Romney believes......Romney's vulture capitalism raided workers pension funds, while putting tens of millions into off-shore accounts in the Cayman Islands & Swiss Bank accounts Romney has NEVER created jobs except in China - Romney still has investments in China as well - Look it up!
As Governor of Massachusetts for one term - Romney didn't create any jobs but lost jobs...The MA deficit went much much higher - Romney knew he couldn't get reelected So he decided to run for president on what, Bain? Get Real....Bain never created jobs in the US only in China - We ALL know republicans can not deal with the facts....They point to something that has nothing to do with Romney and his constant flip-flopping and outright lies!
