Since they seem to LIKE moving business to other countries. Lets take all the TOP wage earners and give them wages EQUAL to those over seas. If some low level Flunky had done something like this, wouldnt they have been fired? Much of the BIG business and corps are treating our gov, as if it had no controls. Think its time to give it some teeth. Something has happened in this nation, that bodes bad tidings for the consumer. FRom the Import Docks to the reseller, the price of goods is marked up so high on most products, that the common person, cant afford it. That includes food. Understand that out of the Food from the field, LESS THAN 1% is thrown away. In 1 form or another, it gets to be used. From 1 end of a Cow to the Udder..the WHOLE cow is used. It may not be on your table, but they find uses for it. most imported goods, end up costing YOU 10 times there costs to get here. Even canada has higher wages then the USA, for starting wages. We just hit $7.25 per hour. They are $8-11, depending on location. I would like a change in the business structure.
