With 85% democrat legislature to deal with in Taxachusetts, It is a wonder Romney got to balance the budget, improve credit rating of state issued bonds, and actually got 19 taxcuts passed. He also issued 800 vetoes in 4 years...probably a record.
If he gets a majority GOP congress, and he does not deliver significant improvements in budget deficits, I am going to be disappointed big time. If senate remains democrat, his job will be obviously much more difficult.
We as a nation will never start paying off national debt hanging like sword of Damocles on the young, until we first arrive at balanced budgets and then on to surplus budgets.
If Mitt is wise he will pave the road for many more private Bain’s.
If he is less wise (however well intentioned) he will try to put the government in Bain’s shoes. Which will be a recipe for disaster as it will be pulled every which way by conflicting constituent interests rather than a pure desire to prosper capitalistically.
