I dont understand. Since when did welfare liberals and commies have more $ and influence than real Americans? I've always supported the open market and capitalism but why are corporations always pushing liberal agenda. What happened to our wealth and influence in this country?

Slave labor, my dude. Slave labor.
Capitalism can't compete with slaves.
Once Russia imploded, the new gulags opened up in China full-swing.
Sell cheap because you have no overhead costs. No insurance to pay. No health hazards to regulate. Children working in toxic conditions.
You simply can't compete with that, no matter how poor a quality it is.
I'm not too sure about this one.
Capitalism not only can compete with slavery, it greatly exceeds it. When the wealth of the elite is stored in the ownership of slave labour, it disincentivizes investment in the development of labour saving devices, as it would reduce the value of your slaves. This puts a limit on human advancement. For this reason, if western civilizations did not abolish slavery and create a free market for human labour it is very unlikely that we would have experienced an industrial revolution.
I'm pretty sure the Roman Empire had discovered many inventions (such as the steam engine)that weren't rediscovered for over 1000 years. I believe it was their reliance on slave labour that prevented further development of such labour saving devices and hence an industrial revolution.
This is why I don't understand the modern elite's obsession with slavery and depopulation. In the long term both of these will reduce their own quality of life.
I think the elites take the attitude “it’s better to rule in hell than serve in heaven.” They want power even if it drags them down too.
I am talking about American companies pandering to diversity and left here, not China production. Are Walmarts and Amazons owned by China? Idts
