America also supports many corrupt, killer tyrant leaders so that this
regime will continue and rich republicans can make more money also
depriving Americans of jobs. Without bloodshed nothing will change.
But eventually the pigeons will come home to roost.


There is some traction to your observation that US companies locate in
places where they can avoid regulations and have lower employee costs.


There is also a significant incentive to locate offshore to avoid taxes..

The
US has the 2nd largest (soon to become THE largest) corporate tax rate in
the world - something in the neighborhood of 35%. If the US reduced its
corporate tax rate to zero, we could make a big dent in unemployment as
companies moved production facilities back home.


Things have changed, however. Republicans got elected. Whether this will
result in bloodshed is solely up to the unions.


Oh Jeez, now you're rewriting union history? *I'm not particularly fond of
unions, but I am fond of the truth.

Just like the partisan donkey crap that either the D's or the R's are solely
responsible for all our ills, perhaps you've heard the expression "it takes
two to tango." *The history of the labor movement is riddled with murders of
union workers, scabs, innocent bystanders, Pinkertons, hired thugs, business
owners and more.

Union organizers faced businessmen determined to keep unions out of their
businesses at all costs. *No one who is writing in AHR today really knows
what work was like in the early industrial age. *They have no idea how many
people died so they could have their paid vacations, health bennies, lunch
hours, work breaks, fair wages, pensions, workmen's comp and more. *They
just take for granted those conditions were always there. *They were not.
