    Prove it, show your evidence.

    Or admit you are just shilling for the government.

    It's stashed in the Caymans along with his tax returns. I can't.

    Granny says, "Let's see `em...

    ... distribute the profits...

    ... amongst the poor people...

    ... who ain't got jobs...

    ... cause the rich company owners...

    ... outsourced `em to China, India an' Mexico."

    His tax returns aren't stashed in the Caymans, they are with the IRS. Do you have any proof that he has money in the Cayman Islands, or are you just bleating what your bosses in the current administration tell you to?

    Like this will solve anything!

    Thing is that capitalism is stabbing itself in the back , let's say you have a soda factory and you employ 1000 people , their western wages are good so they can spend some money buying your soda ; but then you decide to outsource so you fire 1000 people and hire Chinese in their places for 1/5 of the wage. Problem is that when you will try to sell your soda back home nobody will have spare money to buy it , expand this to a national level to see what happened .

    This of course assumes that none or very few of the 1000 will find other jobs.

    Look at the expanding joblessness in Europe and the US , also take note that those who do find jobs are getting less paid.
    It is the customers that drive the market and outsourcing kills them , no demand = no business = no jobs .

    Freedom drives the market. Take that away and it collapses to government controlled poverty. Tell me, how many more jobs would be lost when a struggling company, that just might save itself through outsourcing and would be able to keep some jobs here, goes completely out of business because their not allowed to outsource?

    And what about retirees living off income from ira's and 401k's? They depend on corporate profits. They take that money they earned from their investment and buy products in the same market. That's purchasing your false model doesn't consider. Stop oursourcing and profits dip therefore retirees have less to spend = slower market = fewer jobs. It's more complex than your class envy model comprehends.

    Why do you despise someone for being successful? The Democrat Convention was in most part stories of people who started with nothing and made something of themselves. Both conventions focused on making sure everyone has an opportunity to succeed. All the vitriol for a successful businessman seems hypocritical.

    If Romney has broken any laws, please report him and let's make sure he is prosecuted. If he has not, but you would like for his actions to be illegal, lobby for those legislative changes. If you think Obama will make a better president then vote for him.

    I have a problem with someone that outsources American jobs to "becomes successful". Cutting a bunch of jobs, and hacking off a big hunk for yourself while they bleed to death. I don't consider what PinkSlip did is worthy of being called "success". I think what he did, AND PLANS TO CONTINUE TO DO....outsourcing even MORE jobs, is criminal. Certainly not the criteria for President of the United States and ALL of its people.

    To start from the second point your pensions are low because your system sucks , it must be one of the worst systems worldwide.
    Each occupation should have their own fund that it is run by themselves and keep their money away from the hands of the state and the corporations .... but of course this is "too complicated" .
    "Freedom" doesn't drive anything and i suggest that you keep your minarchist nonsense for yourself , if people don't have jobs they don't buy stuff , when there is zero demand for your product paying a worker $2 per hour or $2 per month isn't going to save your business.
    Why you think China is rising the wages of workers twice a year? because they are building an eternal market so they will no longer rely on exports , they are pimping business with cheap loans and strict legislation while expanding their customer base by bringing people out of poverty. What the west does in return? is killing it's customers base by forcing people into poverty , starve the countries of taxes while driving the industry abroad .... do you see where this "freedom" is going ?
