How Did Mitt Romney Get So Obscenely Rich?

3 comments:

  1. Yet all legit. Yet, Obama still takes money from PE firms. Honestly, what's with the obsession about Romney's wealth?

    I notice this video is from moveon.org. Moveon is backed (or was backed at one time) by George Soros. Anyone interested on how he makes money? It's rich - excuse the pun - watching a video financially supported by a currency trader go after Romney.

    I call BS.

    1. Good commentary, Commentator. As you know from years of SE posting, I'm no fan of the traditional political left. On the other hand, I don't think the Romneys of the world all acquire their vast wealth through the "free market". Legit or not, it isn't necessarily right. That doesn't make Obama the good guy, of course.

  2. Sure, there are some ethical questions as to how some people make money. Then again, you can make ethical claims for many others as well. Trial and criminal lawyers for example always meander between law and ethics.

    And if people are ultimately paying for PE shenanigans that's because the government interferes where it shouldn't.
