[QUOTE="TedKennedy, post: 4036761, member: 25419"] In principle I agree, however in practice it seems to be necessary. Companies being able to manufacture goods overseas with no repercussions for flooding our markets make wage competition impossible, unless we lower the bar for the US standard of living. Companies to this day hire illegals for tasks and pay them crap wages that taxpayers would not suit up for. This creates a hostile environment for low level taxpaying Americans. Making the most money for stockholders is the goal, and that's what drives business. The folks directing the companies often let that goal overcome morality or patriotism, and I'm sure an educated fellow like yourself knows of many examples of this. Checks and balances - fair market versus free market. [/QUOTE]
