$10,000 is like pocket change to these rich bastards. I think it was kind of tasteless thing to do too in light of the current economic situation.
yea even if he said a million dollars, i wouldnt be sure if he was serious or not. I say ill bet you a millions dollar all the time, but im obviously joking. this guy was not joking. Average income is like 50K in the u.s? so thats a little more than 4 months of work$10,000 is like pocket change to these rich bastards.

If by sucks you mean the best game ever =DThis does not bother me much at all tbh.Charazani
So you do not care that the Republicans flaunt their wealth in this economy?
Another reason to not vote republican. They play with money despite claiming to be fiscally responsible. Quite side actuallyBanjo_Kongfooie
I completely agree. I hate how he wagered tax-payer money to prove his point!

Flaunt: to parade or display oneself conspicuosly, defiantly, or boldly. Mitt Romney was obviously bragging about his wealth. It is not as if practically everybody playfully bets large sums of money in regards to silly matters.
They obviously have no concept of poverty or financial struggle. Or the current economic crisis most of the world is facing. Mephers3
I hope "they" is referring to politicians in general, for if not, here is a golden nugget of info for you: almost every politician is rich, including President Hope.

while i dislike obama, he is not nearly as rich as your friend romney. he doesnt have any business or other investments going on.I apologize. I did not know that Obama informs you of his investments and dealings. I'm sure glad my "friend" Romney does do! Also, I have not even commented on Romney's politics or expressed my support for his candidacy, so please, quit assuming.
Romeny admitted in the debate that he has never been part of the middle class, so $10,000 to him his chump change. It goes to show how out of touch he is and it should hurt him. Commander-Gree
What does being "in touch" with people have to do with economics. Economic positions are based in study, not what people covet and yet are unwilling to work for. Riddle me this, would you prefer a man who has proven he is able to handle money or a poverty-stricken fool to lead the nation?

Well, it depends on what type of economic agendas they will puch based on who they sympathize with more. A large part of economics is policy, so quit with the attitude and learn a little somethingPlease Log In to post.
