Wes,

A profitable corporation means jobs. An unprofitable corporation means layoffs. I don't see you employing thousands of people. I don't see you sharing the loss when your company doesn't make any money. It's in your best interests if a corporation stays healthy and employs people. It seems that unions today no longer understand that. They strangled the corporations until they finally disappeared (ie the steel industry). Sure there are some abuses.....whatever happened to the usury laws so that these payday loan places can't charge 400% interest (of course what idiot would go there but obviously some do). I also don't agree with the mega-millions that some CEO's are receiving now, but then I don't agree with what athletes make either. But once again I reiterate that no matter what, the USA is the best place in the world for opportunity regardless of race or class.

Of course if you really like taxes and cradle to grave breast feeding then Sweden is the ideal place.
