"In 2010, a year after the last round of Hertz layoffs, Carlyle teamed up with Bain to take $500 million out of another takeover target: the parent company of Dunkin' Donuts and Baskin-Robbins. Dunkin' had to take out a $1.25 billion loan to pay a dividend to its new private equity owners. So think of this the next time you go to Dunkin' Donuts for a cup of coffee: A small cup of joe costs about $1.69 in most outlets, which means that for years to come, Dunkin' Donuts will have to sell about 2,011,834 small coffees every month – about $3.4 million – just to meet the interest payments on the loan it took out to pay Bain and Carlyle their little one-time dividend. And that doesn't include the principal on the loan, or the additional millions in debt that Dunkin' has to pay every year to get out from under the $2.4 billion in debt it's now saddled with after having the privilege of being taken over – with borrowed money – by the firm that Romney built."
It's amazing this shit is legal, seriously.

But fuckin HOW is he the Pubs candidate? It's OK to suck the government tit as long as you're not a darkie. I can't figure out it the Pubs are more stupid or evil? I guess the rank and file are stupid, top of the food chain evil.

I don't mind that either.. it's his 'doucheness' and 'smugness' that I find irritating.. He used to be on Maher every other weekend.. In fact, he was virtual "no one" until Maher had him on as his 'roving reporter' type.. and he was just so smug.. about everything.. ugh. irritating. |

because it's viewed as 'capitalism'.. and then branded 'ok'.. That's the easiest part to understand when it comes to the 'why'.. How many times did Trump, when talking about the recession, blame "those people who took out loans and couldn't repay them' as being the total reason for the economy..? and yet, how many times has he declared bankruptcy? but it's 'business-related' so it's capitalism.. to most of these idiots.. as for 'stupid'...these were the people who called themselves 'tea-baggers' and held signs saying 'keep your gov't hands off my medicare'.. so what do you think  |
