So Corporate America, your foray into politics brings many challenges ahead. How will it affect your lobbyists? They are on your payroll, you use them to get policy changed! Will you make the politicians angry at your insolence toward the job they do? Wait some of you have tax breaks given to you in your home states, will it go away? With your ad today in the New York Times are you thinking too globally, not locally? Remember to this day elections are in the states hands to do with as they see fit.
Profits, you have to love profits, they are the life blood of your whole organization. People can loose their job depending on how the profits shake out. As a corporation your employees can take you to the profits you need. You train them, grow them, they perform the job to the maximum attenable levels. Everything is great and prosperous, good for your corporation!
Here is my take. The point all of you are missing is this government has been eroding the work ethic in this country for years. For all of your pandering to Congress and money spent making legislation happen, it is about to bite you in the ass. Thirty years ago, welfare was a help up, now it is a lifestyle. The government has made it so you are all in or you get nothing at all. I worked seven days a week at one point, two of them being in a convince store that accepted food stamps. You see people buying stupid stuff and using food stamps and they have $1200 to spend, my feathers ruffle! When you come into said store and three generations are in the store educating on how to use the system, now I am pissed off.
Corporate America do you see what is in front of you? For all of your pandering to Congress you allowed them to create a lazy society, your workers! The said middle class, from which they gained most of their tax money and gave you, your tax breaks is now fat, lazy and not willing to work. Even before Sars-Covid2 companies were damn near begging people to come work for them. Please take a look out your window, your worst nightmare is about to come true.
The government, your tax benefactor, needs revenue as do you. People aren’t willing to work. Tax revenue down, government bills may need to be paid, guess who pays the bills now, the general public and Corporate America. Congress isn’t going to cut their salary and somebody has to pay guess who is next…… At some point Corporate America is going to go in front of Congress and beg for workers and ask for help. So Corporate America is only willing to pay so much to do a job to keep profits up. Congress is only willing to give a small tax break. Welcome to communist Russia folks, they will tell you the job you will do and how long you will work and the pay you shale receive, but hey 81 million people voted for this timeline.
