What kind of "people" is candidate Romney. He declares himself well here.

Got this from Joe Davenport and it seems to define the attitude corporate welfare Republicans have. This is a false notion that equates "corporations as people" with mom and pop and their kitchen budget. Seeing no difference between corporations and we the people who pay an the unequal share of income-to-taxes is an admission that this is not in any way a party of the people. It is self-serving and reflects a socially moral economic insanity.

Can we ever forget that corporations and the behavior of the wealthy are the principal cause of our current economic mess?

Can we ever forget that these corporate "people" came hat-in-hand to mom and pop's government which is supported more on a proportionate basis by mom and pop taxes than corporate "people" and asked us to bail them out?

Those folks are Romney folks as much as the socially conservative right wing are the folks of Bachmann and company.

ROMNEY: There’s various ways of [preserving Social Security and Medicare’s solvency]. One is we could raise taxes on people. That’s not the way . . .
AUDIENCE: Corporations! Corporations!
ROMNEY: Corporations are people, my friend.
AUDIENCE: No they’re not.
ROMNEY: Of course they are. Everything corporations earn ultimately goes to people. Where do you think it goes?
AUDIENCE: It goes into your pocket!
ROMNEY: Whose pockets? Whose pockets? People’s pockets. Human beings, my friend.

This from a guy who just criticized Obama for the S&P rating and whose home state while he was governor raised taxes to get a high S&P rating. Now he's saying the opposite ... which is what he needs to say so teapublicans will vote his way.

Let's be honest here. We are not hearing from one mom/pop kitchen budget guy to another.

That "my friend" condescending stuff only underlines the arrogant assumption from within a moneyed bubble that if things are economically good personally for the candidate then the rest of the citizens can't be so bad off that we should change the tax laws.
