(but I also agree that Romney didn't mean a damned word of it, just more drivel out of his plastic pie hole)<br /><br />The very poor that wish to remain slack-jawed, lazy dependents already have their government programs. The very rich are doing quite well, as Romney should know. <br />The middle class is shrinking and endangered, thanks to the export of jobs, out of control executive pay, inane regulations, and unconstitutional government takeover of private industry functions. <br />The government programs for the very poor do NOT encourage transition from low to middle class, sadly. If someone could find the answer to providing help without creating a gill net, we'd see more for everyone, since a growing middle class creates demand for products, in turn creating jobs. Yeah, I know the answer is NOT government, but nobody wants to hear that answer. Sheep expect elected officials to "solve problems" for them.Buzznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-44322415227861382762012-02-03T18:34:44.396-05:002012-02-03T18:34:44.396-05:00@ Anonymous 6:10,

I am convinced he has no morals or ethics beyond garnering votes, garnering money, and looking good in public. <br /><br />His comment was not about the people that are rich or poor, it was entirely about what economic strata needs the most work and support, and likely to yield the most effective results. It sounds awful the way he put it. I still think he lives in the Massachusetts that made Chappaquiddick possible.Brad K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18378344866487206569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-47228227646399526532012-02-03T18:10:18.497-05:002012-02-03T18:10:18.497-05:00Just remember that the "concern" is alwa...Just remember that the "concern" is always faked.
