I agree, it does. But it isn't the job of corporations to endure permanent profit-losses for the good of the american economy. Their job is to make money now. They have to. It is not optional. If they don't make money, the owners/investors take their money and go home - and why wouldn't they? Why should they keep investing their time and money in a system that is bending them over?
There is only one entity that can solve this problem. The entity that created it - Big Government. Deregulate and lower taxes. Let unions fend for themselves, without government interference and support. Let states and localities manage their own air/water pollution issues. Get rid of obamacare. Get rid of OSHA. Get rid of minimum wages. Little things like Capitalism and Liberty. You know, the things that made this the largest consumer driven economy to begin with.
