The demand for my first episode of “FACQ”<\/a> was so immense, I thought I’d do a follow-up.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Q: “So what do you think about Mitt’s “Swiss Bank Account”?
\nA: \u00a0“Fascinating. \u00a0Are you better off than you were four years ago?”<\/p>\n

Q: “Mitt made his money by short-selling America!”
\nA: \u00a0“Speaking of short-selling – how does the value of your house compare to four years ago?”<\/p>\n

Q: “Is it moral that Mitt short-sold America?”
\nA: \u00a0“He didn’t – that’s a narrative repeated by people who don’t understand the term, intended for and repeated by others who also don’t have a clue. \u00a0Short-selling is a way of creating wealth out of the process of creative destruction. \u00a0It in turn creates more capital to create more jobs. \u00a0Speaking of jobs – are you better off than you were four year ago?<\/p>\n

Q: “People don’t like Mitt Romney”
\nA: \u00a0“You know what people like less? \u00a0Being out of work. \u00a0Did you see last Friday’s jobs report<\/a>? \u00a0 Most of us are doing much worse than we were four years ago!”<\/p>\n

Q: “Hahahaha! \u00a0Obamacare is constitutional!”
\nA: \u00a0“We’re working on it. \u00a0Now – are you better off than you were four years ago?”<\/p>\n

Q: “Mitt’s wife rides a horse!”
\nA: \u00a0“I bet the horse is the only one who’s better off than he was four years ago. \u00a0Speaking of which – are you better off than you were four years ago?”<\/p>\n
