Perry’s in the right place to talk about Willard Gekko.
A big steel mill located in South Carolina was closed down and the workers lost everything when Willard’s Wall Street Raiders came to town.
Hopefully Perry and Gingrich can find a couple of them and take them around with them to tell their story. This is just getting interestig.
“Allowing these companies to come in and loot the, loot people’s jobs, loot their pensions, loot their ability to take care of their families and I will suggest they’re just vultures,” Perry said during a townhall at a retirement community here. “They’re vultures that sitting out there on the tree limb waiting for the company to get sick and then they swoop in, they eat the carcass. They leave with that and they leave the skeleton.”

Disgusting Marxist bunk.
Steel industry suffered big in those days and the Pensions Benefity Guaranty Corporation had to bail out a TON of pension funds. No malice here.
Go after Romney for his record. Not his venture capital experience. That is how venture capital works and is supposed to work. If you don’t like it, move to China. The government dictates everything there, which you seem to like.
I am starting to get disgusted by the lefty populists on FR.
