The “Corporate Greed” mantra is long past being lame. The things that have driven jobs overseas can be, for the most part,laid @ the feet of the government. High corporate taxes. The companies do not pay taxes the buyers do as it is in the product markup. Regulation. Regulations are beyond the pale and they grow and grow. Litigation! Need I say more? It is too diffecult to start a business in this country. The government makes it seem as though they do not want a business to start up and prosper. The politicians disparage big business and use them as scape goats. .This is not a business freindly nation. If business did not pay taxes their prices would go down and be more competative on the world market. The same for regulation and litigation. Both have to be pared back.
All of this adds to the cost of products and the buyer is paying for it.
