The US Government has been in the business of pleasing profitiers for years.. They've been dismantling our industries and sending the jobs overseas for more profit and I think most people know that by now... It seems though, they are now attacking and even attempting to criminalize American companies that hire American workers to make things in America.. Bottom line: A profiteir knows no loyality to nations or borders. If a politician can be bought, a profiteir will buy them. Once the politician is purchased they are obliged to inact and/or change laws to suit their owners. The politician's obligation to their constituents are secondary (or less) because it was the profiteirs campaign contributions that got the politicians elected in the first place, not the vote... The only way to deal with this is long term.. Take "them" out of office and put "us" in.. The problem with that is "they" have "us" fighting among ourselves over trival or imaginary differences/issues like skin color or language.. The differences in this country are between the rich and the poor... When the citizens start electing their own as representatives to government it will start to get better. Rebublicans? Democrats? There's no difference. The top single monetary contributor to our current president's 2008 campaign? Goldman Sachs... I'm a big fan of capitalism. I think that there would be no BB King if there were not a market for a BB King but at some point the citizens have to take back and hold on to what they have earned.. The Supreme Court (individuals appointed for life by politicians that are owned by profiteirs) has declared that companies have the same rights as people in America do. Though companies are made up of people, there's a problem with the fact that profits usually matter more than patriotism when it comes to pleasing multi-national share holders... It's going to have to be up to actual real people to make this country better. The sooner the better.
