Instead, they want to restore American values (aka blind faith in Christianity), and champion slogans such as low taxes, pro business, smaller government.
The fundamental problem is that corporations are not patriotic. They want everything configured for them to turn a bigger profit, while ignoring the will, or the well being or their workers, who in this case, used to be mostly Americans. These are American capitalists who are hell bent on destroying American lives, not because they hate America, but because it is expensive to feed American lives, and the expenses should be conserved for bigger profit margins on their annual reports instead. This is why corporations are shifting jobs overseas. They have no allegiance to America or to any Americans, even though their mode of communication is in a fundamental American concept--the Dollar.
This following NY Times article brings up nothing new, but it angers me that the writer is not pointing fingers at the real culprit of the problem, and that the victim is not voicing her anger at the real culprit as well, which I'm sure anyone with her brain, can easily see:
The chief hurdles to more robust technology hiring appear to be increasing automation and the addition of highly skilled labor overseas. The result is a mismatch of skill levels here at home: not enough workers with the cutting-edge skills coveted by tech firms, and too many people with abilities that can be duplicated offshore at lower cost.
And more, including the naming of HP in this massacre of jobs for Americans:
Corvallis was once a hotbed for tech start-ups. But Ms. Mann said that with layoffs from other tech companies in the area, including Hewlett-Packard, the city now has a glut of people like herself: unemployed engineers with multiple degrees. “I apply for everything I can find, but there are just not that many jobs out there,” she said.
And there are people who actually want to vote for Fiorina?
Here's the real evil, but veiled behind flowery language and the words of an analyst in the pocket of the big corporations, so he won't speak the truth:
But economists who follow highly skilled employment say that some of the most prominent companies that laid off workers during the recession, like I.B.M., are expanding their work forces abroad.
“Certainly a lot of these I.T. services firms plus the core software firms like Oracle are globalizing their work, or, as they put it, ‘rebalancing’ their work forces,” says Ronil Hira, an assistant professor of public policy at the Rochester Institute of Technology.
'Rebalancing' work force can be roughly translated into expanding a workforce while distributing the salary across the workforce so there are more workers, but the overall payroll remains the same, further deducing this complex trend, what we see is that (American) corporations are adding workers to help them make money, but are paying less to these workers because they take advantage of the low-cost of living of IT hotbeds such as India and China. Meanwhile, American students take out massive amount of loans, but because they are not significantly better than foreign workers, but still require a relatively high salary, are being eschewed by American corporations. Because American corporations don't exist to serve Americans, they exist to serve the amounts in their oversea bank accounts.
Face it, most Republicans are too stupid to realize what is going on, yet they shout the loudest when it comes to 'restoring' American values. Why not take a machete, and chop some heads off their corporate friends first. How do we restore American value? By giving jobs back to Americans, a generous gestures that friends of the Republican party are all too unwilling to make.
