Outsourcing

A national issue that concerns the American people is our businesses outsourcing and cutting every corner to increase profits not decrease the price we pay for their products.. In the beginning of our proud country’s history a business was started locally, ran locally, and finally sold the best products it could as cheaply as could be possible locally. Today more and more businesses go to other countries so they can get cheaper labor to maximize their profits. They could care less that they are taking away valuable jobs that many Americans desperately need, and they still charge as much as legally possible to make that ever larger profit.

Rockefeller of Standard Oil believed that the purpose of a monopoly is not only to make a higher profit but to provide the best and cheapest product possible to the consumer. We have virtually no monopolies that exist today and yet necessary products cost more and more. These are not products that we want and could live without but products that we need. Such as soda, candy, and junk food. It does not matter the industry, the problem is every where. No longer do we receive best products and services that business has to offer at the cheapest they can offer it but sometimes even second rate products and services at prices that would make Rockefeller turn over in his grave. Gone the days are when the labor used was by our own hands and destined to further us to ever higher plateaus. Today’s products continue to be made as cheaply as possible at our expense and sold wherever the most profit could be made.

Where has our pride as Americans gone? To China, Taiwan, Japan, Afghanistan, Mexico, and wherever profits can be maximized. Does anyone see how we bleed our life blood? And by life blood I mean our jobs, money, and the very products we used
