Answer 9

It sure isn't us. Even having elections. Big business runs the country. For instance: look at the way our country gives tax breaks to companies to go overseas to be competitive. Maybe putting higher tariffs on the countries that don't allow our products to be sold in theirs would even the field. Here is my favorite: In the 80's, Chrysler was going broke and was looking for a bailout, Well the government did but while that was happening, Mitsubishi bought a 40 to 50% stake in Chrysler. So while Lee Iocooca Was running around saying how Japan has hurt us, They were actually making the small cars, all of them. In economics< it is always easier to bring an economy down than it is the lift it up.  That is why having almost every third world country build, supply and assemble our products is cheaper and easier than paying ourselves to do it. We'd rather let our work go overseas because the profits for the companies are a lot larger and the taxes are cheaper. Why do you think neither party has a serious plan to change let alone stop that. Corporate America is concerned with their bottom line not you well being. An our government encourages it to the hilt. Here's another hint: I have friends that buy smokes from overseas and medicine cheaper than getting them here. Reason it's cheaper coming from there than coming from here even though they are made here. They don't have to pay the taxes when the send them overseas. It's a wonder how this policy keeps going on and we don't even know it or care about it. We are so accoustomed to listening to whatever party we belong to and blame the other party. No matter what party is in, nothing changes because if the other party thought of it and yes both have come up with ideas, then it must be bad. But when it's time for self indulgent raises, WELL GUESS WHAT, that gets passed without a lot of dessent.
