This isn’t the path to take for Conservatives. Companies like Bain have their place in the market. When companies are about to go under, the salvage what they can. People would be out of work either way.

I haven’t worked with Bain but I’ve worked with Blackstone and I’ll defend what they do.

This of them like auto-salvage. If you have a car that has or is about to die, you can sell it to a salvage yard who will use it for parts to keep other cars running. Parts of that car live on and help many other cars.

There are too many issues Romney is bad on to attack a legal and proper business in the free market.

You are wrong about Bain. They should be held liable for Medicare billing fraud. Does not seem like free market to me. Also, taking over firms and hyping up the stock price and dumping it seems like a breach of trust with the shareholders.

Really? What about using the capitol to improve the company so they will be profitable, rather than extracting as much as possible out of them? and then allowing them to go under?
