Mitt Romney's Bain Capital Tied To Surveillance Push In China

As the Chinese government forges ahead on a multibillion-dollar effort to blanket the country with surveillance cameras, one American company stands to profit: Bain Capital, the private equity firm founded by Mitt Romney. In August Romney reported that he and his wife earned a minimum of $5.6 million from the company.

In December, a Bain Capital-run fund in which a Romney family blind trust has holdings purchased the video surveillance division of a Chinese company that claims to be the largest supplier to the government's Safe Cities program, a highly advanced monitoring system that allows the authorities to watch over university campuses, hospitals, mosques and movie theaters from centralized command posts.

The financial disclosure forms Mr. Romney filed last August show that a blind trust in the name of his wife, Ann Romney, held a relatively small stake of between $100,000 and $250,000 in the Bain Capital Asia fund that purchased Uniview.

The Bain-owned surveillance company produces what it calls "infrared antiriot" cameras and software that enable police officials in different jurisdictions to share images in real time through the Internet. Previous projects have included an emergency command center in Tibet that "provides a solid foundation for the maintenance of social stability and the protection of people's peaceful life."

Human rights advocates say in China they are also used to intimidate and monitor political and religious dissidents. Loksag, a Tibetan Buddhist monk in Gansu Province said quote" There are video cameras all over our monastery, and their only purpose is to make us feel fear." He said the cameras helped the authorities identify and detain nearly 200 monks who participated in a protest at his monastery in 2008.

The manufacturer is said to have no control over whether they are used for other purposes. However that doesn't make the deal any less sinister when they are fully aware of the CCP's intention.s 

Bain employees and executives are also among the largest donors to his campaign, and their contributions accounted for 10 percent of the money received.

Bain's decision to enter China's fast-growing surveillance industry raises questions about the direct role that American corporations play in outfitting tyrannical governments with technology that can be used to supress their own citizens.

According to the statement on his Web site, "Any serious U.S. policy toward China must confront the fact that China's regime continues to deny its people basic political freedoms and human rights," He has charged the Obama administration of placing economic concerns above human rights in managing relations with China which is true but with this revlation we have even more evidence that Ronmey is aglobalist fake working behind the scenes with China..just like his support Texas Governor Rick Perry that made a deal with the HUAWEI corporation to set up their own telcom company in Plano Texas..That company is suspected of being involving in spying on the us and engaging in cyber attack. 

In recent years, a number of Western companies, including Honeywell, General Electric, I.B.M. and United Technologies, have been criticized for selling sophisticated surveillance-related technology to the Chinese government.

I have been talking for years about how the WEST has helped China set up their big brother superstate with the help of our advanced computer technologies. But heres an interesting twist:

Last year, Texas Govenor Rick Perry invited the Chinese to Texas to set up shop with their own surveillance telecommunications company....The picture is being clearer now at the modern tools of social control using one country to control the people in another country through various means.
