Here’a a thought. All of us who have any stock at all in any of these treasonous companies should DUMP them post-haste. If you must put your money somewhere, buy gold.

Send ‘em into a financial tailspin that will teach them a lesson they’ll never ever forget.

Or for those of you who don’t want to divest of your holdings, show up at the shareholder’s meetings and create as big of a ruckus as you can. throw as many monkey wrenches into their plans as you’re able to. You can start with derivative actions.

Exactly right...we are financing our own demise.

All companies whether headquartered in the US or elsewhere have a fiduciary responsibility to their share holders to maximize their return on investment. Many times this dictates that companies have to look overseas for less expensive labor and material to accomplish this business objective in order to remain competitive. Most labor intensive industries will never return to the US not only because of high labor and material costs but losing control of their balance sheet to labor unions who are pricing their products out of their market place. The feds can work as hard as they want to control and criticize private sector companies profits however if they keep pursuing this course of action entire companies will leave the US for greener pastures. I have no clue why they have not left already in greater numbers given the vitriolic hatred of the capitalist system by the White House. Keep it up liberals and you will get redistribution of wealth right overseas along with their tax base — good luck when you can't find a good paying job except with the government - oh but no private sector so there will not need for federal gov’t/employees cause they will not have any private sector to manage (control) who use to provide the taxes to support our bloated underworkded/overcompensated public sector employees. Happy days are just around the corner for US’s emancipation from BIG BROTHER.
