Protections, no environmental they have no human rights, david. and low wages. so is he saying he wants to bring us back to that point? like to the days of cal coolidge as joy suggests? david, yes. there s a lot going on that doesn t compute and when it does compute it s rather scary. there s something called the moonlight magnolia theory of economics. the south practices it right now. when you strip away unions and you can lower wages, businesses are more profitable. that s why wall street you see the stock market tick up when companies lay people off because it s considered more efficient. romney s closing campaign appears to be focused on frightening people. in ohio he puts out an ad that frightens people as david has said into believing they will lose their job in the auto industry but in virginia he frightens them into believing they will lose their health care. listen to this. perhaps needing the care of a specialist, if he or she makes a call to the doctor and ....
Political analyst david corn, author of 47 percent. and joy reid managing editor of thegrio.com. of who always brings 100%. borrowing the words of calvin coolidge who said the business of america is business. the most respected businessman turned politician mike bloomberg has just endorsed the president. what do you make of that move? what was interesting was one of the reasons mayor bloomberg cited, which was climate change. looking at the devastating impact of the storm sandy due mean that nonsensical, mumbo jumbo, nonsense that isn t believable. we will remember when mitt romney joked, actually joked, about rising ocean levels and the president s desire to do something about it during his speech in tampa. and so i think mike bloomberg is ....
