Mitt Romney: USA inc.

[Godfly]

Mitt Romney hintted today about plans to turn the United States of America into the largest most heavily armed corporation in the world. There have been politicians who have wanted to run government like a buissiness but Mr. Romney is the first to have the vision to make the government a buissiness. GLORY!

Mitt Romney, who has frequently highlighted his executive acumen in his campaign for the White House, mixed business with politics on Friday when he mistakenly called the United States a "company" that he thinks he and his running mate can rescue.
"Paul Ryan and I understand how the economy works, we understand how Washington works, we will reach across the aisle and find good people who, like us, want to make sure this company deals with its challenges," Romney said during a Republican National Convention send-off rally in Lakeland, Fla.
Friday's comments were not the first time that the former Massachusetts governor fused boardroom lexicon with political rhetoric.

If only it were publicly traded. I'd buy shares!

Wouldn't the profits of just burning your money be higher?

I think that means Freehold would become a franchisee. If Mitt were the CEO, it might work pretty well.

Even with, what is it now, $14 TRILLION in outstanding debt?

Just pay it off with your Facebook windfall profits.

Oh, wait . . .

Facebook is a fad, but the United States of America is a quality brand with a proven track record of success. Once incorporated we can sell off the parts of the country we don't like as well as useless programs like the EPA. That will make us enough to pay off the debt. Then we can fire the poor and the disabled unless they start to produce. Soon we can market our brand of freedom to the rest of the world. Instead of paying out foreign aid other countries will pay us to bring freedom to their shores. That and by moving customer service to India will save us enough money to keep the stock competitive well into the next quarter.

I didn't buy Facepalm, friend. And while I'd buy shares in USA, Inc., I wouldn't dive into the IPO. I'd wait until the P/E ratio was acceptable, as well.

IPOs are for fools. As Facepalm has aptly demonstrated!

I respectfully disagree. The time to buy is now, the stock prices will never be lower. As soon as Mitt Romney becomes the CEO of the country the stock will go sky high! If you buy enough for voting rights you can tell your grand children that you were part of the vote that sold California to China and ended poverty in America by voting to terminate the contracts of all the poor.

Personally I'm not even going to provide a letter of recommendation to the poor.

You do have a point, there.
