It’s a little ad made by Priorities USA – the SuperPAC supporting President Obama. The ad featured Joe Soptic, a steelworker who lost his job when Romney’s Bain Capital bought the company. Following Bain’s proven method for making a profit, Joe lost his job and his family’s health insurance coverage. Shortly after, his wife was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer.
She died 22 days later.
“I don’t think Mitt Romney understands what he’s done to people’s lives by closing the plant,” Joe says. “I don’t think he realizes that people’s lives completely changed.”
Romney’s Bain however, made a huge profit.
