I Came To This Planet To Harvest Your Jobs

David Corn of Mother Jones released another video handed to him today of Mitt Romney speaking in 1985 discussing how Bain Capital will "harvest" companies.

Bain Capital is an investment partnership which was formed to invest in start-up companies and ongoing companies, then to take an active hand in managing them and hopefully, five to eight years later, to harvest them at a significant profit.

Here's a hint - harvesting them had nothing to do with creating jobs.

And as Mitt Romney said himself, Bain Capital is about finance, and about helping investment targets "realize their potential value" so they can then be harvested, not job creation.

Romney may not be an alien, but he is a monster.
