Mitt Romney Gets Pwned by Occupier at New Hampshire Town Hall
By Blue Texan
Awesome. I never get tired of this. Watch Mittens get destroyed by a normal guy like us over the reality of life in the 99%. Watch Willard haplessly defend "corporations are people, my friend!" and the wealthiest 1%.
The fist question was by an Occupier, and he really let Willard have it.
It seems that the U.S. is a great place to be a corporation, the man said, but increasingly a desperate place to live and work.
Where do you think corporations profits go? Romney asked.
It goes to the 1 percent of Americans who own the 90 percent of stocks, the man responded and continued to press him.
That's how it's done, ladies and gentlemen. Willard then pathetically replied,
Youve had your turn, Romney said. Now its my turn. . . . Corporations are made up of people and the money goes to people either to hire people or to pay shareholders. Theyre made up of people. So somehow thinking that theres something else out there that we could grab money from and get taxes from and everything would be better . . . why, theyre still people.

Mitt Romneys first town hall in New Hampshire was a PR disaster Occupy Wall Street turned the event into Mitt Romney explains why corporations are really the good guys.
Here is a transcript of what happened when Mitt Romney met up with Occupy protester Mark Provost,
Mark Provost: Im Mark from Occupy Boston and Occupy New Hampshire. Congratulations on your victory last night. Youve said that corporations are people, but in the last two years, corporate profits have surged to record highs, directly at the expense of wages. Thats in a JP Morgan report. Now, it seems that the U.S. is a great place to be a corporation then, but increasingly a desperate place to live and work. So would you refine your statement from corporations are people to corporations are abusive people? And would you be willing to reverse the policies of the Obama administration and his predecessors around corporate-centric economic policies, that only see wealth and income strata just go to the top, record highs seemingly every faster every year. And the people in this country are in a permanent economic stagnation. So I just want to see some color on that.
