They didn't offshore their headquarters because they weren't making profit only that they could make more elsewhere and pay their laborers lower wages with no benefits.

Have you forgotten the 90%+ tax? Government policies aren't just some magic numbers you adjust to get money. Trust and reputation takes ages to build, yet a moment to destroy.

Of course not. I'm talking about corporate lawyers screwing the middle class for their own self-interests by directing policies with mammon by lobbying US corp.

Look. Any government that is allowed to regulate the economy. Will be taken over. Because not only it is profitable, it will keep reminding everyone how profitable it is by stealing from them.

Look. If we had proper education that instilled values and morals over mammon worship and free thinkers who understood corporate oversight and how to use Us corp for the betterment of community, liberty and freedom, we would be in a much better place. Too bad we have party politics and propaganda as the majoritative solution. But that comes when private corporate coups take over a quasi private public federal corporation.
