Why bother paying your debts when you can burn it all down?

no need to dare me, I am happy to read. Looks like Mitt is an extremely astute businessman, has an incredible understanding of finances and banking. And maybe I misunderstood, but did noting illegal or immoral.
Yes, the opinion of someone who works for a financial firm saying threatening to take the cash and run with it while leaving the debt on the backs of the taxpayers isn't immoral. Right. Uh huh.
This isn't an Obama thread, go make your own. Shoo.

did he do it, or did he threaten to? Welcome to the business world
and by the way, millions of americans will retire, millions will have pensions, millions will send their kids to college because of financial firms. I feel very good about what I do for a living. Peoples dreams come true.
geez, at least you can count on social security and govt loans!
Threatening tax pay dollars is par for the course for you?
We are so goddamn screwed.
Keep drinking the left wing look aid that who ever is feeding you. I am not even a republican. But I know a raw deal when I see one. I don't even consider Romney to be the right guy for the job but he has one thing going for him. He has held a real job. He has worked in the real world. Regardless of what Rolling Stone says he has performed in a real position that required him to make money for others as opposed to collecting money from others

Tax pay $ were not part of the discussion. FDIC funding was. It was a tough negotiation with the government. yes the government is funded by tax payer dollars. But thats not how the discussion would have went.
I highly doubt every government employee says "Im spending tax payer dollars" when they go to work. Obama doesnt say Im spending tax payer dollars to support under water homeowners.
Romney played hardball with an entity - the government.
These things happen all the time.
You dont think businesses threaten govt to pull money out of towns if they dont get their way? Dont governments ALL the time spend "tax payer dollars" to give incentives to businesses?????????

Yep...
"The venue, located in Downtown Tampa's Channelside District was a secondary location chosen after the failure of Tampa Coliseum Inc. to secure funding to construct an arena on Tampa Sports Authority land near Tampa Stadium. The government paid $86 million and the Tampa Bay Lightning paid $53 million for the venue's construction and infrastructure. It opened in 1996 as the Ice Palace."
