  • DON SVO opinion piece: Why AMERICA needed Romney to win

    I bolded "America" for a reason, that reason being that our country as a whole will need to eat dust and pour sweat and cry rivers of tears to fix itself.

    The issue most grave is that of our fiscal downward spiral that seems bottomless.

    - National debt is almost 17 trillion dollars
    - Obama has added just shy of 7 trillion to that number in under 4 years
    - Obama hasn't passed a budget EVER and hasn't even put forth a serious effort to do so
    - Reid made it clear that, should we be set to exceed our current cap, he would raise the debt ceiling.

    Effectively, the current administration acknowledges that we're spending beyond our means, they know the "BHO 4-year Fixit Plan" was never even a reality (NONE of it implemented), repeated raise our debt load unchecked... and the Dems and Repubs simply acquiesce. This is the current state of affairs.

    Obama has never held a job in any sort that requires an ounce of financial responsibility until the presidency... and his first 4 years were more than a dismal failure: any company that's publicly traded would have dumped his ass on the curb within the first 6 months. Not only has BHO's policies been utterly absurd and destructive, he's surrounded himself with talking heads like Bernanke, Reid, Daschle, etc that have done nothing but exacerbate the fiscal situation. Considering that BHO has no clue what he is doing, it's understandable why he'd let this fester and boil and do NOTHING to stop it. How does a 2 year old save daddy from drowning in a swimming pool? They don't. They have no idea how to swim, and in this case the 2 year old is consulting with a host of other clueless 2 year olds while daddy is sinking in the deep end.

    OK, let's get this part out of the way right now: this country is quite similar to GM. As it stands the United States of America is 17 trillion dollars in debt, pays half a trillion dollars annually in interest to countries that own our debt, produces a global product that is not overselling to cover its expenses, the money put in by the taxable investors doesn't even cover the mandatory Social Security and Medicare payments and is diving further and further into the red. Face it, the USA is a business with profits, costs, investors, creditors, money-sucking Unions and a very very small board that only convenes every couple of years to make changes voted on by it's investors. Unfortunately, unlike GM, we don't have a BIGGER Obama to swoop in with invented money to bail us out in full. Like GM though, we're barely able to pay back the creditors who have bought some of our debt.

    Some of the biggest detractors to Mitt Romney cite his record as a 'super rich guy' who runs an 'evil bloodthirsty corporation' in Bain Capital. Guess what. America is the biggest corporation in the world. Bar-none. What happens when a company flounders and Bain Capital sees that, with some re-design in it's internal operations, it could become successful? Mitt Romney's team moves in, buys it and makes it profitable. That's why Mitt Romney is a 'super rich guy' who runs Bain Capital. His success is GOOD, because right now this country needs to be run like a floundering company.

    Romney has had to make the hard decisions for years. Budget cuts. Layoffs. Move jobs overseas. Divest. Merge. He knows how to make real changes in a global market with a company that needed those changes and he's done it successfully over and over and over. He would be someone who could take the reins and right the ship. It's in doing just that is EXACTLY what has made him successful. Some wouldn't have liked Romney and he may well have ended up being a Martyr and falling on his sword, but he would know how to fix things and have the balls to stop the bleeding.

    JUST the Social Security/Medicaid/Medicare payments and interest paid on our debts exceeded the taxes the IRS collected last year. Think about that... we were operating at a deficit BEFORE any member of the Senate collected a single paycheck. Our entitlement programs and debt payments (just the interest!) cost more than we can tax. Unfortunately for the leeches, when you're not even able to cover entitlements with taxes, something has to give. Much like some high-profile companies who are getting raped by the unions that manage the workforce, this country is getting hammered by some of the same issues. Considering Obama caters to the leeches, the Gravy Train of Monopoly money will continue as scheduled.

    Sadly for Romney, the leeches won't let us fix things. They cast their vote for abortions, gay marriage and weed. Since voters control who runs this country, just like investors cast their vote for the board of directors, this election reflects what causes LOTS of businesses to fail. They're run by idiots. Selfish, short-sighted mouth breathers. They get driven into the ground by idiots who grab hold of the controls and hang on until they've milked the cow dry and jump out with the only parachutes. They're the reason a company like Bain Capital buys them for pennies on the dollar.

    Start learning how to speak Mandarin, because I fear there's going to be a much larger "Bain Capital" on our horizon.

                That makes you sound like an uneducated dolt. To what end? They are doing what they think is better for the greater good of the country, as misguided and incorrect as what they think is.

                When Ryan said "By the way, being successful at business is a GOOD thing" I wanted to cheer. I didn't agree with several of R/R's opinions, but I thought they would be able to at least get the fucking economy fixed. 4 years of dire straights financially, and what do we get? Health care the majority of Americans were opposed to, and will likely end up putting more people out of work and raising costs. Great work. I've never been more disgusted as an American.

                  That fuckin' kid doesn't even know about living, let alone what the government is doing.

                  Does he even live on his own dime yet, or is he still suckling moms tit and taking everyone else's opinion as gospel? I'm going with the latter.

                    Actually there's an obvious end. Obama's Dad and everyone around him growing up were anti-America. They believed we were too big, too influential and too powerful. We should be reduced to the status of every other country, giving up our power in the UN and as an independent force. Take the time to read both of his books. You'll see exactly why he wants America on her knees

                            yes but you see they may have it in their little heads that they need to do a restart in order to get thei socialist utopia going

                            which could involve......... taking down what they dont like . Which the country they want to change was at least ORIGINALLY set up to be against everything they stand for . They know this .
