Romney made his money by breaking up companies and selling the parts and not by restoring them to health.

Romney has no idea how to cut spending and the size of government. He raised taxes and fees by 300% in Mass and passed a state version of cap and trade. Even Obama didn't get that passed.

There's no difference between them.

The Romney Economy

It is arresting to imagine a Romney White House, inevitably filled with as many former Bain colleagues as each of his other public ventures have been: The ­PowerPoints, the 80-20 jargon, the clinical separation of decision-making from ideology, the detachment of those decisions from moral consequence, a persistent blind spot for people as people. It would represent the final ascension of a perfectly American type, one that has already remade the culture of business. I once asked a Bain colleague of Romney’s how Romney thought of his own core competence. “I think Mitt thinks he’s good at being Mitt Romney,” the colleague said.

If it is that simple to make money by breaking up corporations, are you going to have a go at it?

I am sure you are lot smarter than Romney, so should have little trouble making $260 million for yourself.
