Mitt Romney – Obama Voters Believe In Entitlements And Are Not Responsible

Mother Jones posted a very damaging video today showing Mitt Romney talking to a small group of big-time donors. Romney, in the presence of these rich folks chose to talk about poorer Americans, and he expressed his feelings about these unfortunate citizens.

Romney said that these poor Americans are people who believes in an “entitlement” society. He said that they look at themselves as “victims,” and concluded that his job is not to “worry about those people,” because he can never “convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives.”

These voters Romney claimed, are Obama voters.

There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it. That that’s an entitlement. And the government should give it to them. And they will vote for this president no matter what…These are people who pay no income tax.

[M]y job is is not to worry about those people. I’ll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives.”
