Sending jobs over seas, cutting wages whenever they can find a good excuse, overworking and under paying EVERYONE. It's total BS, but in a country (and now world) where corporations rule supreme above all governments, it's never gonna change, only get worse until they squeeze us all so hard the whole system fails. I'm a firm believer in true capitalism and what it does for communities, but that's not what we've had in this country for a LONG time. It's been corporatisum for a LONG time now and true capitalists don't stand a chance.

Agreed. And forget about doing what's best for the country. That doesn't even factor into their decision making process. In fact, several years ago, the execs at IBM made a point of telling us all that we should no longer consider IBM to be an American company. We're a Global company now; we transcend the boundaries of nation-states. Basically, it was their way of telling us that U.S. national interests were no longer their concern. The only interests they are concerned about are those related to the stock valuation.
