Condemning the “rich” while defending the worker and their altruistic goals is most certainly communist lingo.

What else is a company supposed to do considering the taxes, regulations, and poor economy in America. His job is to keep the company profitable. In many other cases those companies are owned and run by foreigners who most certainly do not hold America as their priority.

Yes it sucks that all of our jobs are going overseas. Perhaps we should push back on taxes, OSHA, EPA, FTC, FDA, and every other out of control govt jobs program. That might make it easier and more profitable for those companies to stay here.

You are wrong. And couldn’t be more wrong. How is “defending the worker” communist lingo? Communism is about (among other things) state control of industry. We are talking about nothing of the sort. Lots of CEO’s have gone for more short term profits and ultimately ended up destroying their companies.

Henry Ford is a great example. He RAISED wages. Voluntarily. To outrageous levels by the standard of the day. And as a result, his employees were more loyal, AND able to buy the product they were making. It was good for business.

IF you think that pursuit of short term profits should be the CEO’s only goal, then clearly you know little about business.
