Did you know that Romney didn’t use “good old-fashioned capitalism” to make money at Bain Capital.

He manipulated bankruptcy laws by taking over companies as a holding company, borrowing tremendous sums of money through the acquired company, having Bain syphon off millions in fees, and then allowing the purchased company to go bankrupt to pay pennies on the dollar to stiffed creditors.

That’s not “the free market system”. It’s the insider “manipulated market system”.

It's the kind of thing Jay Gould used to do ... and Ken Lay .... and both were reviled by the real marketarians of their respective generations.
