Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney ranks top 10 in the wealthiest candidates ever to run for office.

On multiple occasions, Mitt Romney has said things that illustrate his arrogance as someone who is extremely wealthy.
Just a day before the New Hampshire primary, Romney told a crowd, “I like being able to fire people who provide services to me.”
With unemployment reaching record low numbers and Americans becoming increasingly desperate for jobs, this sort of arrogance is unacceptable.
Romney does not appear to be phased by the fact many Americans are extremely unhappy with many members of the 1 percent for showing absolutely no sympathy for average Americans in the midst of an economic slump.
