I didn't actually remember how many he had so I just made that general statement.

Also what double standard are you referring to? Also what tactic? details. Stop being vague.

I agree with this.

The way I read it, it sounded like you think that the tactic of going bankrupt is okay unless Trump does it. That's a double standard.

Well, unless someone's business directly causes the closure of a business that employs more people, adding new venues and functions would create jobs and would put money into the economy.

He said during the debate that he gave a tentative approval of it on Howard Stern. When you listen to that Howard Stern interview, he clearly sounds not at all sure when he says, "Yeah . . . I guess so."

Nah, I wasn't saying that. I'm just saying that there are successful business men that haven't had to use that strategy.

I'm also stating that I know why it used from time to time.

I wouldn't say that I feel I can believe either any more than the other. It's just that Hillary is a career politician who gave standard, vague, too-abstract, career-politician rhetoric during the debate that tells you that if she gets in, it's 4 more years (at least) of the same ol' same ol'.

Well, ja. I was talking about declaring bankruptcy though.

Declaring bankruptcy doesn't necessarily mean that the business stops functioning or that people lose their jobs. It's often just a financial move one can make in the game under certain conditions that enables financial restructuring and often leads to increased solvency and the creation of even more jobs.
