Mitt Romney was not a businessman; he was a master financial speculator who bought, sold, flipped, and stripped businesses. Instead, he spent his 15 years raising debt in prodigious amounts on Wall Street so that Bain could purchase the pots and pans and castoffs of corporate America, leverage them to the hilt, gussy them up as reborn "roll-ups", and then deliver them back to Wall Street for resale--the faster the better.
