Here is my take on this for my conservative brothers here. I know you don't think dems get shit on enough here. I am pretty much hate all corporate politicians. Here we have a pharmaceutical plant in the U.S. employing 1,400 workers and paying them really ($31/hr vs an average of $17/hr). This should be pretty upsetting regardless of political affiliation. So why are national democrats being quiet on this? Well Joe Manchin is a moderate democrat in a state that has transitioned blue the last few decades. They can't lose that precarious seat in an already tight senate margin for votes so they are going to just let these people lose their jobs instead of doing the right thing.

Life is good as a politician or the family member of a politician.

No shame and no morals amongst a good lot of them. They must all be laughing at us peons.

And this world is full of greedy assholes.

For the shareholders = Fuck American workers

Will they drop all their prices now that they'll save on labor? I bet not.

I don't know what you do to stop these moves though?

As much as big businesses can be soulless penny chasers, the rules they play by are set up by our politicians. The whole system is against us commoners.
