If people want to spin a narrative that way. So the opposite is being pro-business? So the campaign is going to come down to whether you are pro-worker, and want the playing field more level, or you are pro-business and want to give the wealthy even more breaks? The focus on Mitt and Bain capital is that Mitt got rich while his company oversaw the dismantling of businesses, saddling them with debt, and ended up costing workers jobs. Part of the narrative, if you want to say "pro business" is that one view is that, if you cut breaks for business, they will suddenly do what is right, hire people and so on. Economic laws mandate that, so long as people do what they can to line their own pockets, everyone else will benefit. Well, everyone who is merits it of course. Those who fall behind, OBVIOUSLY fall behind because they are parasite losers who only want a free handout anyhow. |
The problem with the whole bain narrative is that democrats are trying to cherry pick what is actually a really good record on job creation. This is the big problem with politics, nobody looks like at the big picture. Personally, the bain attacks fall flat for me. I just wish people werent dumb enough to listen to these cherry picked attacks. Unfortunately, people will listen, especially people that are already biased against either side.
