War on the Looting of America




Here is how Americans are rewarded for bailing out the auto industry.  We let GM and other American car companies overcharge us, dodge their fair tax share, take our jobs out of the country, and then they choose China to be their partner in the future?

I can think of no better argument for nationalization of a corporation than this.  We are at war with China, a global war of economics.  China holds more American debt than everyone but American citizens.  China actively pursues a state supported computer hacking campaign against the USA to gain economic and strategic advantages.  China backs our enemies economically and militarily.  China woos and recruits manufacturing jobs away fom the USA, directly harming our economy.  China takes advantage of the tariff imbalance with the USA to depress American markets.


The worst part is that the soulless corporations of America are eager to help with our destruction, and this action by GM is an undeniable example.  Programs like unemployment insurance, food banks, and prescription co-pays were cancelled or underfunded so our government could 'save' GM and others from bankruptcy.  We literally took money from the unemployed, food from our citizens, and healthcare from the elderly to bail out GM.


GM isn't the only corporate criminal in America, but teaming up with China is unbelievably brazen.  It might even be interpreted as an act of war, but is at least immoral, trampling the trust of employees and all of America.  Our government should recognize the offense to our citizens and step in, as we did in Libya.  


President Obama should declare a War on the Looting of America, take over GM, and jail all executives while Congress decides what to do with them.  Everyone involved should lose everything if investigations find they are planning policy that harms Americans.  GM should then forever remain a government entity.  What's the worst that could happen, bankruptcy?  Been there, done that.  Obama is looking for jobs for veterans?  There ya go!


Okay, it sounds a bit extreme, I know, but Citizen America needs to send a message to Corporate America -- we are not only a labor force or a market share; we made Corporate America what it is, saved them from themselves, and we will take back what is ours if necessary.  We of Citizen America will not allow Corporate America to impoverish our citizens, aid our enemies, hold our economy hostage, and try to destroy the United States.


Usually I'd try and close on a lighter note, but I can't this time.  Do me a favor and give this blog entry a +1 if you're mad, too.
