Where does the buck stop? When you're legally CEO, majority shareholder and legal owner, you're not responsible? In what universe?

That claim rests on the corporate culture (Romney created it) and his SEC filings that he remained CEO. Corporate culture is the, IMO, the most important thing. Bain outsourced. They ran companies that companies and they invested in companies that outsourced. Of course--everyone outsourced. Literally everyone. The number of companies that didn't outsource by the late 90s is close to the number of companies that went bankrupt in the 80s and 90s, not by coincidence. The real question is--does Romney's record at Bain actually mean what he says it means--that he "knows how to (what a President can do to) create jobs in the US in 2013ff"? And the answer is--No.
