Shrewd businessmen are almost always either sociopaths or borderline narcissists, mind you. You have to cut a lot of throats to be in the position Romney is. We're not talking about an entrepreneurial spirit or investing intelligently, but actively stepping on others to come out ahead. It takes a special type of person to conclude that the best way to make a buck is gut a company and lay off people, then do so without any hesitation or regrets. If this is a surprise to anyone, you've just been hiding your hand in the ground because you hated Obama.
Fiscal conservatism is emotionally empty nowadays. Instead of trying to claim charities could help the poor better than government, candidates like Romney degrade the poor. "47%," "leeches," etc. It's not about actually believing your politics would benefit the downtrodden. It's about packing the pockets of the top 10%. Ridiculous.

So the OP thinks saving is bad and increasing debt for entitlements are good? Ridiculous.

Sigmund Freud defined four parts of a psyche; the id, the ego, the superego and the stratego. The Stratego being the highest form of morality and scientific thinking.
