You know of course he’s talking about on a percentage basis, right? I assume then you went to public school...
“I assume then you went to public school…”
You just hit the nail on the head. That is exactly the problem, most of the voters did go to public school and are very poorly educated. Barack Obama gets it. Romney does not.
Daniel Henninger has an article in the WSJ about how Romney needs to get his vision of economic recovery across to the voters because Obama is doing just that, on a very basic level. Actually, Obama is not getting his message of economic reform across, except on an emotional basis. Obama’s message is, “Sock it to the rich guy.” “I want to give you, the people, some of what he’s got.” “Make everyone middle class.”
Romney thinks that he is telling people how he is going to spur growth, but people just don’t get it. The concept of investing is too far out of the experience of too many people. Even those with 401Ks, just delegate a portion of their salaries to go into various funds, or the money market.
Words have meaning.
The article title is blatantly incorrect.
It states “largest increase” not “largest percentage increase”.
