$10,000 Mitt Romney Policy Roundtables

Mitt Romney met with wealthy supporters who last week to discuss policy ideas with those who donated at least $10,000. They talked about energy, education, international relations, and healthcare among others. In other words, he is selling policymaking to the upper part of the Top 1% and ignoring the ideas of average Americans. For example, Dominion Power CEO Thomas Farrell was present and likely discussed what American energy policy should be. L.E. Simmons, another wealthy donor, has experience with private equity investments in energy and likely gave Romney ideas on both financial and energy policy. http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2012/02/11/422858/romney-10k-policy-roundtables/ http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/02/09/romney-holds-a-policy-round-table-but-attendees-must-raise-10000/
