Why is Mitt Romney such a liar? Does he want to making the working poor poorer?

I know the routine well, I spend tons of time up there, the locals have a saying up there "half the pay for a view of the bay". Wages have always been low up there, and about 10 years ago they started importing workers for the Hospital in Petoskey and then more for the mive Bay Harbor development. About 5 years ago the nurses at the hospital in Petoskey went on strike, the hospital locked them out, refused to negotiate and brought in replacement nurses most of whom were "imports" from the Philippines, Jamaica, etc. All of the nurses lost their jobs and it became the longest nursing strike in the history of the U.S. If they want quality workers for the businesses that are financially raping the tourists (locally known as "fudgies") then they should indeed pay more, we both know they can afford it. Romney is a duplicitous ******, purely a talking head, albeit muffled due to it being lodged in his . I would have moved up there years ago had it not been for the very low pay scale, it is where my family homesteaded and I'd love to return there, I hope Romney finds other fields to spread his fertilizer in!
