Now Romney Says the Private Sector is Fine

      It's amazing how shameless Romney's campaign really is. He's running against his own healthcare law. He attacks the President for something taken out of context-'you didn't build that'-and now he's calling the private sector fine after making a hue and a cry when the President said it.

     However, it's more than just the usual Romney hypocrisy. Beyond this he says that one reason business is doing fine is because of the availability of tax havens. Yes, you can not make this up. With all the experience he has both personally and professionally with tax avoidance, he actually had the nerve to praise it in public:

    "Creating a potential headache for his campaign, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney said big businesses in the U.S. were “doing fine” in part because they get advantages from offshore tax havens."

     "His comments echoed similar assertions about the state of big business by President Barack Obama which Romney has criticized. They’re also a reminder that the GOP candidate has kept some of his personal fortune in low tax foreign accounts."

     “Big business is doing fine in many places,” Romney said during a campaign fundraiser Thursday. “They get the loans they need, they can deal with all the regulation. They know how to find ways to get through the tax code, save money by putting various things in the places where there are low tax havens around the world for their businesses.”

    Well he's the expert on tax havens.

     "Romney didn’t mention Thursday that he has kept some of his personal money in offshore tax havens, including accounts in Switzerland and the Cayman Islands."
      Because Mitt is so clueless he's always doing this to himself-shooting himself right in the foot as he's to lacking in empathy to know that certain comments are tactless.

      You'd think he'd know better than to praise tax havens but he doesn't know any better as he really doesn't understand why they're a sore point with most Americans-because they show that he plays by a different set of rules.

      That's probably not a bad working defnition of empathy-lack of it tends to make you very tactless.
