The Screwing of the Elderly, Middle Class and the Poor

What the powers that be in Congress and the Presidency continue to tell us is that job creators need more tax breaks for their businesses to survive and thrive. All the while real wages have declined for the past 20 years for most Americans and there more poverty, less stability, worse jobs, and more financial hardship for most American than there has been for decades back to the times of the Great Depression. To argue otherwise is foolish because when one sees the economic morass and mess left behind from years of the corporatization of America one should see the damage that was done by vast enterprises of business moving their operations to foreign shores not because of taxes. Yet they moved businesses such as Visteon, Whirpool, Rexnord, Carrier out of the state of Indiana not because of taxes. But because they needed cheap labor and paying someone 20 to 25 dollars an hour is way too much for their corporate masters when they can pay a Mexican wage slave 2 or 3 dollars an hour. That's the real story they aren't bothering to tell you and nor do your government officials have the balls and human decency to actually say anything about it. Other than false promises by Donald Trump that he was going to make America great once again. All for the economic race to the bottom supported by the Republican Party and those in corporate America that want to capitalize on low wage labor.
