One surefire way to get rich is not to pay your bills.  It seems to have worked for Carly Fiorina, the person who claims to know “how the economy actually works.”

She made it work for herself by not paying her staff for her senate run against Barbara Boxer in 2010.

Until late last year, Fiorina was close to $500,000 in debt from her 2010 run, nearly all of it in unpaid compensation to campaign staffers and outside consultants, according to Federal Election Commission filings.

All the bill were paid in full when she decided to run for president.  Fiorina is supposedly worth $120 million. One consultant died with Fiorina owing him $30,000, didn’t pay his widow the monies owned him until January of this year.

Yep, that’s Republican economics.
