Mitt Romney Gets Pwned by Occupier at New Hampshire Town Hall

[LESS INFO] 5 VIEWS | ADDED 19:00:29 01/05/12
Wednesday in New Hampshire, John McCain endorsed Willard at a town hall event. After the love fest, they opened it up to questions -- which was a big mistake. The fist question was by an Occupier, and he really let Willard have it. > “It seems that the U.S. is a great place to be a corporation,’’ the man said, “but increasingly a desperate place to live and work.’’ “Where do you think corporations’ profits go?’’ Romney asked. “ It goes to the 1 percent of Americans who own the 90 percent of stocks ,’’ the man responded and continued to press him. That's how it's done, ladies and gentlemen. Willard then pathetically replied, > “You’ve had your turn,’’ Romney said. “Now it’s my turn. . . . Corporations are made up of people and the money goes to people either to hire people or to pay shareholders. They’re made up of people. So somehow thinking that there’s something else out there that we could grab money from and get taxes from and everything would be better . . . why, they’re still people .’’ Here's hoping Willard keeps up this "corporations are people" stuff all throughout 2012. Winning message. Later, a woman tells Willard that she doesn't think much of Reaganomics. > “ After 20 years of Reagan economics, trickle down theory, it didn’t help me, ’’ she said. “My tin can is still empty.’’ “Let me ask you a question: Can you tell me where it’s better to live, where the income per person is better than in America ?’’ Romney responded. In other words, "Suck it up, lady -- or go back to China." Super classy. I think Willard laid out a couple good campaign bumper stickers there. "Romney 2012: Corporations Are People" or "Romney 2012: Be Grateful You're Not Living in a Third World Country." Add yours in comments.

Our Guest this Week is Heiner Thorborg, Executive Search Consultant

DW-TV: Hanna von Hoerner is certainly an exceptional woman - but what about today's career women? What chances do they have in a corporate world? Let's discuss this question with Heiner Thorborg who is an executive search consultant and headhunter. How often is it that you place women in jobs over men, and for what positions? Heiner Thorborg: Still relatively seldom because there aren't so many obvious choices around and there are far more men than women. However my clients repeatedly ask for female candidates so it's up to the search profession to change methodology, to change approach and to really look for good, capable, qualified women. DW-TV: How big a role does gender play when hunting / looking for the right person to fill a vacancy? Heiner Thorborg: Absolutely because the pressure has become so hot over the last couple of years. The quota is right around the corner. Europe talks about a quota, the German government is still reluctant but the quota is there. So they understand, they got the message. Now they're changing and they really look actively for women. When you talk about supervisory boards, whenever a seat becomes available, it's going to be filled by a woman. DW-TV: Here in Germany we are currently experiencing a heated debate about whether or not to introduce a gender quota - I take it you are against such a quota - why? Heiner Thorborg: Definitely against it. Because a quota means force. You're forcing either the woman into these positions and maybe they don't want it sometimes. Or you have to force males out and in a free economy that to me is a no-no. DW-TV: But so far very few women made it to the top in German DAX companies. How else can you deal with that situation if not using force like a quota? Heiner Thorborg: Well you don't have a quota in the active management board anywhere in the world. Nowhere. Norway is always cited as an example but we only talk about the board of non-executive directors, not executive directors. Because at that level - executive directors - it's almost impossible to force it onto the company and to increase the women's share to 10, 15, 20, 30 percent. So no. DW-TV: Okay. So no quota but some kind of force or incentive. Heiner Thorborg, thank you very much for joining us. (Interview: Monika Jones)
