The corporations what? Left the country?
Do you know how that happened?
Because they're greedy and wanted slave labor.
Because the purpose of a corporation is to turn a profit. Jobs left because American labor priced itself out of the market.
All you can do is *****. If all consumer electronics were suddenly made here, you'd be bitching that you can't afford them.
Well, yes. They were made here before and they were more expensive but we got paid more and had better bennies...the women stayed home. We bought the goods then but we couldn't afford them now so much because in the early 70's carter started removing tariffs which allowed the corporations to go and go they did.
The effort snowballed and our jobs with them. There are virtually no tariffs now but when we export WE pay tariffs! Its the corporations purpose to turn a profit? What is a country's purpose?
What we need is to go back to the policies that made us healthy and get rid of the policies that are killing our middle class and working.(which used to mean the same thing). These greedy corporations were making plenty of money before the exodus...they're just ******* greedy, like you, want it all and don't, like you, give a damn for the country.
And the imports from china are cheap, poorly made junk.
