Romney bragging about Bain Capital days and factory in China

Interesting tidbit: I recently was given a bag of the candy called Rollos bought at a local Target store. It was made in England. It had real sugar, real cocoa, but didn't cost any more per ounce than candy made in the USA that use cheaper ingredients, cheaper labor and doesn't have to be imported from Europe. I am sure Cadbury in England still makes a good profit on these bags that are imported into the USA so why the shitty wages and cheap ingredients here in the USA? I say this points to a difference in morality of corporations here in the US vs those in Europe. It isn't black and white of course but there is obviously some difference on a gradient.
This is the same for Swedish candy I bought at Ikea. Less or the same cost per ounce as Mars or Hershey chocolate even though labor and ingredients are more expensive in Sweden plus the product has to be imported (IKEA also adds 30-50% of profit on these chocolate bars, not sure how much my local Target or grocery store adds to their cost). What is sold as premium candy here is the quality of regular candy in Sweden. Why?
Greed at the cost of your customers is never a good idea for long term health of your company so I guess people at the top of these corporations are more greedy than smart. Not the kind of person that should be in charge of thousands of people's livelihoods.
Also interesting that a culture that is so hot for religion is less moral than a culture where churches are near empty. Makes sense to me. Organizations relying on getting people to stop thinking critically cannot be good for promoting morality after all.


Rolos are made by Nestle, just FYI. A global and far richer company than Cadbury's. But I'm positive your point still stands!

Isn't Wankel feeling rather smug right about now.


I thought the same thing, and Wikipedia greeted me with this:

"The rotor of the Wankel engine is easily mistaken for a Reuleaux triangle but its curved sides are somewhat flatter than those of a Reuleaux triangle and so it does not have constant width. "

Source (English translation) http://translate.google.de/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.der-wankelmotor.de%2FTechniklexikon%2Ftechniklexikon.html&sl=de&tl=en&hl=de&ie=UTF-8

I'm still partial to the reference though.
