Spacebar.
People don't get it.
Ever ask yourself why they're sitting on those resources?
Didn't think so.
Oh, yeah I did. You see I know by making less, they can sell less for more as an item become scarce in a capitalist market, and make a bigger profit. And if there is a complaint to making less, the government will subsidize their sorry asses and give them bonuses for hiring.
Oh yea exactly, that's why Henry ford never put automobiles within reach of anyone but evil rich folk....![]()

"Translation: "I cannot make it out there on my own...and cannot compete therefore I have to have Government come in and fuck it all up for everyone..."
Don't you know SHITHEAD that is how business is born? I suppose that you HATE competiton...
You have a limited view, and limited history knowledge.

By lowering the wages and benefits of the middle class (in order to give the owners lower operating costs), the Reagan Revolution cut the middle class out of the loop. This diverted the lion's share of profits over the last 30 years to the upper class. This ended the broadly shared prosperity which allowed the postwar middle class to consume and drive the economy and send their children to college. The war on labor meant that money would become highly concentrated in the hands of the owners or "suppliers" (supply side economics). So much so that there was too much money chasing too few investment opportunities, which is why Wall Street had to invent ponzi derivatives to keep up with the demand for higher returns. On the other end of the economic spectrum you have the consumption classes, whose wages stagnated while their support programs and benefits were cut. Given this, how could the middle class afford to drive the consumption economy? Where would they get the money? Answer: credit. In order to cover up the fact that all the money was getting stuck on top -- where it was dynastically transferred through inheritances, or stuffed into the pockets of politicians, or poured into think tanks and opinion management -- the Reagan Revolution built the largest credit/debt economy in history, and both parties played along [Indeed, what politician would ever admit to the middle class that they could not live better than their parents?]
Fueling the middle class with credit eventually broke the bank (even though the wealthy walked away with incredible interest payments)
Why on earth would the trillions of dollars of looted money be reinvested into an economy with bankrupt consumers and zombi banks? Where is the incentive? The postwar structure FDR put in place to fuel middle class demand is gone, and the credit used to keep consumers afloat has dried up. Decades of job loss, as well as wage and benefit freezes, have finally come home to roost. There is no more money circulating through the real economy. It became over-concentrated in the pockets of people who couldn't possibly spend it all.
America grew billionaires at the expense of drying up the buying power of the very people who drove the economy.
People don't get. We made the suppliers wealthy beyond their wildest dreams, but we choked the people who actually buy things. The wealthy don't have to expose their golden parachutes to any market risk -- they don't have to reinvest. They already live like royalty, as will their heirs. The game is over. This is exactly how great nations die. They are progressively looted by a small class of people who gain control over the political and information systems. Our country was looted. The great middle class consumption economy died when Reagan decided to transfer all the money to the wealthy. America bought into the voodoo. The money never trickled down. Credit was used to hide the corpse of the failed trickle down policies. And now the credit is gone, leaving the corpse -- the bankrupt America consumer . . . on his way to Washington with a pitchfork, looking for something that doesn't exist: government, which is merely a bogus holding of corporations, something used to absorb risk and populist anger.
See, this is why there is no sense on the left. Blame business for not investing - in an unstable economy. Fucking morons.
Whos Sitting On $1 Trillion In Cash
As economic recovery lags, companies see few reasons to spend
October 27, 2010 | By Paul Ausick
Its common knowledge that U.S. companies are sitting on a large pile of cash. Moodys estimates that pile to be worth $1 trillion. It must be a comfortable place to sit, too, because there seems little enthusiasm for whittling the size of the pile down.

Ahhhh, another poster who, when faced with reality, resorts to misogyny.
Why aren't they investing capital which would also have the effect of hiring people?
Because they do not see a good investment opportunity, that's why.
They know perfectly well the DEMAND side is too weak.
They see that the American consumer is SAVING at a rate of 6% now (three or four years agao it was 0%, FYI) and paying off debts.
We ARE trapped in that DELFATIONARY cycle, folks.
The keynesians are RIGHT.
EVen the corporations understand that they cannot jump start this economy.
They're not fools, folks.
The SUPPLY SIDERS are, however
That is, ssuming the supply siders really want the economy to thrive, of course.
I don't think they do, really.
Not as long as Obama is in office, at least.
So they keep pressing for tax breaks for billionsaires who don't need it, and supporting continued foolish TRADE policies and generally doing wht they can to keep this nation's economy on the rocks.
Yeah I'm talking about the GOP's political strategy, right now.
That's right.
They care more about their party then they do about you unemployed folks.
They always have and they always will, too.

These businesses are not going to invest their money, expand or hire worker in this economic climate when they dont know what the tax rate is going to be, what kind of mandates and regulation are go to be imposed by this left wing administration Cap & trade? Maybe they wont be able to pass it but the EPA is going to impose its own stricter rules. too much big government smothering business , thats the bottom line. All this left wing propaganda from you left wing lunitics, is just that propaganda, driven by these unions and wacko left wing socialist in this country and they are spending big, over 220 million of their members money in this election.
