Yep its a global market with the majority of large corporations.ven people here with any kind of investment such as IRA are gainig from the growth in emerging economies.That is why even a small player like greece as a effrect when they have debt problems also.

My wife and I were just talking about this! Companies are making record earnings/profits while the rest of Americans see no pay raises, no bonuses, fewer amenities, higher costs/rising prices of G&S, FEWER jobs/more unemployment, and so on and so forth. It doesn't seem fair or right, but is anyone seriously surprised anymore? I am DONE with Corporate America....DONE! I am determined to make my own way and start my own business and build it with the values that I feel are most important to myself, but also my customers and America as a whole. Maybe, if I get lucky and the business prospers, I'll be greedy and soul-less like the rest of these guys, but my hope is I can set the standard (in the smallest of ways) for how business should be done -- TO BENEFIT EVERYONE AND ADD VALUE!

No, businesses are there to make money. If they don't make money, they don't stay in business very long. Good luck on your endeavor, but if you don't turn a profit, you won't be in business for very long.

Not all people feel this way, luckily. I am one of them. Do you work for one of these companies or something? Not all of us are on board to help the richest richies get richer......I'd like to try business for myself, if I can, so I can work hard for a cause that I can support (my own).

So you don't believe that value can be created in this country....for a profit? It seems that there are a couple of people like you who just wish for others to fail before they even start. Kinda sad, actually.
I'd be willing to bet that whever you work has company goals that include "creating value". If you're intent on being so sheepish, you might want to at least be consistent and do EVERYTHING they tell you to do.

No, you got it all backwards. The sheeple and the bottom feeders are the ones who add value.

The management walks off with the benefits.
