I really don't believe that our economic system was designed to outsource jobs to India, Bangladesh, etc. just so American workers can be laid off!


I agree with this. One big problem with our country is that we have given corporations legal rights equal to individuals, which is both wrong and immoral. In addition, we allow individuals to use corporations as a shield for their criminal behavior.

The purpose of our economy is to enrich our citizens, not our corporations. Their goal is to maximize shareholder wealth, which is often concentrated in the hands of the executives who have the authority grant themselves stock and the inside knowledge necessary to manipulate their share price.
