322 - "You mixing up the duty of a corporation with the powers of the government?"
Not at all - but you seem to think there is no regulation of commerce, and corporations can do what they want. And the constitution specifically cites this responsibility as one of congress.
We grant corporations ability to exist and perform commerce, not the otherway around.
Corporations have no rights.

The government will do what it will but the corporation exists to make a profit, not to make you or government happy.

Wow, are you in favor of nationalization now?

I didn't say corporations have rights, I said they have a duty, and only one duty. The duty to make PROFIT, and where ever they need to go to make profit that's where they should go. And if they can't make profit in America then WE need to fix that situation and make America a profitable place for corporations again. The main problem with protectionism is that it assumes that if you make going someplace other than America non-profitable that will magically make being in America profitable again. That's not how it works, if America isn't a profitable place for a company to be, and America makes it unprofitable to be someplace else, you now have no place a company can be profitable, and that company goes away.
