are created at that level of scale. what is the response to that? i think all this goes to what i see as romney s truly pessimistic vision for america is dystopia. get to a society full of $9 an hour people working second jobs because they have to. it s unambitious. it has a real effect on workers as citizens. it s hard to be a citizen if you are a $9 an hour job. i don t think that s what it is. the reason he talks about staples and sports authority is because it s there. these are the large companies he was involved in fostering at bain capital. retailers tend to have a lot of employees. they are recognizable. numbers of jobs. i think costco is an interesting and challenging story. they pay well. they have only a quarter as many workers per dollar of sales as
