The Real Mitt Romney behind his mask :

"I can look at Mitt Romney's smile on TV and hear him speak, and nobody has ever sounded more false, fake, plastic and phony to me than he. After 30 years in the "people business", I can spot a "working girl" on the far side of a room and I can usually spot a fake a mile away. Mitt Romney is both, a whore and an artificial imitation of a two-faced hypocrite".

Why Mitt Romney May be Mentally Unstable. No, really.

Why Mitt Romney May be Mentally Unstable. No, really.


Some excerpts :

But leaving my personal opinions aside, I'd like to mention a few observations I've made and what I've learned over these past three years -- and that is this: many of these rich elitists are also very addicted to money. Not all, but a great many. But it's not their fault, because just like any other addiction, it's also an illness. But while although they're only human, but for greed, they could still go to Hell...or to prison.
......................

Mitt Romney is both a sociopath and a compulsive liar, and when he's called out on his disingenuous remarks, he dodges the questions the way he dodged the draft during the Vietnam War. Various fact-checking sites have pounced on Romney for several of his prevarications.

About 2.2 million American have some form of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). That's almost 2% of the population. 1% of the total population is 3.1 million, so of the wealthiest Americans, we can estimate that about 2% of 3.1 million is 64,000 people controlling our political and economic system that have some form of sociopathic symptoms. That's a lot of crazy millionaires and billionaires.

But because they are so wealthy, they can go undetected by isolating themselves and putting themselves in controlled environments and when making public appearances. Often their own spouse is unaware of their neurosis. The serial killer Dennis "BTK" Rader's wife had no clue what he was doing for decades.

Ted Bundy was attractive and smart, and had a great future in politics. He worked on the re-election campaign of Washington's Republican Governor Dan Evans. Evans was elected and he appointed Bundy to the Seattle Crime Prevention Advisory Committee. Bundy's political future seemed secure, when in 1973 he became assistant to Ross Davis, chairman of the Washington State Republican Party. Ted Bundy was also one of the most prolific serial killers in U.S. history.

Serial killers are the most successful kind of killer. They frequently stay on the loose for months, years or even decades. John Douglas, a former chief of the FBI's Elite Serial Crime Unit and author of Mind Hunter says, "A very conservative estimate is that there are between 35 and 50 active serial killers in the United States at any given time". As Ted Bundy said, “We serial killers are your sons, we are your husbands, we are everywhere.”

(He could have added, "We are the 1%.)

It's easier for wealthy people to go undetected, flee the country, or put up a good defense if they're ever caught for their evil deeds. Look at this list of the 1% in my post Murder and Betrayal of the Rich and Famous.

They have wealth, power, and privilege, and can often cover up their misdeeds with their vast network of connections. Ted Kennedy got away with DUI manslaughter; and some think Alice Walton (Wal-Mart) also did. But she did get cited for DUI on other occasions. During one of her DUI arrests she contemptuously asked the police officer," Do you know who I am?" Wealth, power, and privilege.

I'm not saying the top 1% are all murderers and/or thieves, just that the top 1% has just as much a likelihood of being psychotic as anybody else, but getting away with it.

Have you seen the TV show Hoarders? It's a documentary series that airs on A&E and depicts the real-life struggles and treatment of people who suffer from compulsive hoarding. Many of our wealthiest citizens have this condition, but instead of junk, they hoard their money. They live in a constant state of neurotic fear of never having enough.
..................

They're all mentally ill. They all want to cut programs for the poor while cutting taxes for the rich. They all want to further redistribute the wealth to the top 1%. Maybe "capitalism" isn't really broken, but just the leaders of capitalism are broken (mentally ill). Our "captains of industry" (the CEOs) and our "pillars of the community" (the politicians) certainly seem to be broken (pathological), while that rest of us are just plain going broke.
