This post is on the website of ABC, but you can bet it’s buried, and will never see the light of day on TV. It seems one of the victims of the ‘evil’ Mitt Romney and Bain Capital closing of a steel plant named David Foster never actually worked for a company that was under control of Bain Capital. Typical leftist, typical lies, and of course they will get away with it.
But it turns out one of those employees never actually worked for a company controlled by Bain Capital.
David Foster was supposedly one of those former employees on the convention schedule. He told the story about 750 steelworkers who lost their jobs when the Bain-controlled company GST steel filed for bankruptcy in the early 1990s.
“In 2001, with GST bankrupt and Romney still CEO of Bain, I stood in front of hundreds of steelworkers in their 50s and 60s, and retirees in their 70s and 80s, and told them Romney and Bain had broken their promises. Jobs, vacation pay, severance, health insurance and pension benefits that were promised — they were all gone,” he said.
