You should buy stock in some of these evil corporations. It would
give you a voice at the annual meeting, the election of directors, and
a piece of the dividend pie.



And just how is my participation or presence going to stop corporations
from bleeding this country dry and shipping cash and jobs overseas? It
isn't.

Well for one thing it might help teach you something about how the
world of economics and taxation *really* work.

The propaganda that you ingest and regurgitate is just as one sided as
the Rush Limbaugh garbage on the other side of the political fence.

Corporations have no interest in "bleeding the country dry". That's
ridiculous. Who would buy their products?

Likewise corporations have no interest in moving huge amounts of cash
offshore. They'd rather have it here. The problem is that when
corporations earn money offshore they can't bring it back without
being taxed a second time (first in the country where earned).
