So you're saying you actually like & are defending outsourcing & this would be good for American job growth going forward?

Whether Mittsy had sole input during the olympics seems largely an obfuscatory subpoint beside the main thrust, namely he was an outsourcer at Bain.

Bain & Romney entities were indisputably outsourcing jobs way before '99 & Bain continued this model in the early '90s still making money for Romney post-'99 whether Romney still had certain levels of input (which common sense tells you he likely did as 100% shareholder, as well as his own rather 'signature' conflicting testimonies to the contrary elsewhere) or not.

Politifact actually argues that calling Romney a "pioneer in outsourcing" is giving him too much credit as he & Bain were just following the whole of the outsourcing crowd far ahead of '99 ... although no disputing he's an outsourcer.
