“Big corporations have no interest in helping the USA economy”

And when did they?

The Boards of Directors of corporations have Singluar responsibility: Enhance and Increase Shareholder Investments. That means profits.

They are not social workers.
They are not government agents.
They are not obligated to hire YOU.
They are not obligated to make their products here.
They are not obligated to do anything except make a profit and pay taxes.

The rest is pretty much a crap shoot.

Its called free enterprise. And it works great.

When you have Interlocking Directorates, the responsibility is to scratch each others' back.
