And just because what Romney was doing looks like capitalism on the surface, doesnt mean it wasTry doing all the nonsense that went on in the 80's 90's and 2000's without Greenspan's credit bubble explosion which was all about crony capitalism for bankers. Try asset stripping using your own and your clients money rather than credit sloshing around the system looking for a quick hit and takedown.
No. What Romney was doing was not capitalism - investment in the means of production to increase productivity. He and his vulture friends just want to call it that.

Right. This is exactly what needs to be explained; otherwise you've a lot of voters (including many FReepers, it seems) who're going to buy the Romney rhetoric about this all being perfectly legitimate exercises in free-market capitalism.
