WHAT'S UP WITH JOBS AND CORPORATE PROFITS?

United States Corporate Profit Margins Are Higher Than Ever in History!

Corporate profit margins just hit an all-time high. Companies are making more per dollar of sales than they ever have before.

 

Wages as a percent of the economy are at an all-time low. This is both cause and effect. One reason companies are so profitable is that they're paying employees less than they ever have as a share of GDP. And that, in turn, is one reason the economy is so weak: Those "wages" are other companies' revenue.

In short, our current system, and philosophy, is creating a country of a few winners and 300 million workers who are not sharing in this amazing time in history. The system is working very well for the very few.

The problem is not the recent IRS situation.
The real problem is Citizens United....Corporate Personhood...corporations legal ability to use their money just as you and I can use our "free speech"

"I pity the man who wants a coat so cheap that the man or woman who produces the cloth will starve in the process"

Benjamin Harrison - 23rd President (1889-1893)

I pity the society who wants t-shirts made so cheaply that hundreds and thousands must die in the process. When will we start holding Mega-corporations accountable for what they do? 

Minnesota House of Representatives have a bill before them to help make mega-corporations more accountable. How will they respond?

Isn't it pretty obvious what is going on in our country?  Doesn't this point to one of the basic problems?  How else can this information be interpreted, except to deny that it is happening or to refuse to accept that it is true, or pretend that graphs are too complicated to read?

COOPERATION-NOT CORPORATION!

Reject Citizens United!

 Money that is invested in employees in the building of roads,bridges,schools, parks, hospitals, nursing homes, the internet, infrastructure is spent, and re-spent, over, and over, and over +++++++on taxes, cars, homes, appliances, travel but money taken out of the economy by Mega-Corporations is placed in banks in the Cayman Islands, the Netherlands, and Cyprus in order to, legally avoid paying taxes.just sits there! Check out the gymnastics, the dance, that Mega-Corporations, and the very, very wealthy do to avoid investing their profits in America! Have you ever heard of "A Double Irish With a Dutch Sandwich? They have!!! Here are the steps:http://eskoresident.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.htm

Corporations are the OPPOSITE of people! The very things that help too many Mega-Corporations survive are the exact same things that harm, or KILL people....think asbestos in our water, sulfur in our air, lead in, and on, our paints and children's toys, particulate (fracking) in our air and water, pesticides and herbicides in/on our food, preservatives in our food, etc., etc., etc. add your favorite "poison" below. Move To Amend is something we must do! Locally:https://www.facebook.com/groups/DuluthAreaMTA/?ref=notif&notif_t=group_r2jNationally:https://movetoamend.org/

The effect of every dollar they take out of the economy, and put into Cayman Island banks, instead of paying taxes, and is not available for loans for house buying, appliance buying, auto buying, etc. can be multiplied seven fold+++++++++
