Romney anything but a job creator

Mitt Romney has made millions by dismantling companies and firing workers. Now he has employed Glenn Hubbard, George Bush’s architect of the ‘01 and ‘03 tax cuts for the rich that, along with two unfunded wars, helped change a $100 billion surplus under Clinton into a $5 trillion deficit that they are blaming on Obama.

Why would anyone believe that more Romney tax cuts for the rich and less regulation for his business pals will do anything but make the situation worse? Haven’t they been watching jobs disappear for 12 years?

Instead of constantly demanding less taxes for the rich and less regulation for business, why don’t the Republicans support an investment in rebuilding infrastructure?

We have plenty of roads, bridges and dams that need to be repaired. Why don’t the Republicans stop underfunding education and think about how we are going to compete instead of outsourcing to China?

Romney didn’t create jobs in Massachusetts when he was governor. But, as a businessman, he sure knew how to make money destroying them. He is another Republican favoring tax cuts and less regulation for corporate “job creators” who are threatening to make the Middle Class extinct.
