The Game

The game has one rule: supply (-cost) + demand = profit. The object of the game is to maximize profit by increasing supply and demand and minimizing cost as much as possible by cutting out middlemen and keeping labor expenses down. Capitalist like to make money but they don’t like people making money off of them.
Why would corporate America use its own natural resources, supply, when it could get them overseas for cheaper? The U.S. uses over 50% of the worlds goods so naturally goods are more in demand over here and therefore more expensive. That’s why we are dependent on foreign oil, and setting up ‘democracies’ in other people’s countries.
Why would Corporate America pay American employees min. wage or higher and deal with unions and lawsuits and child labor laws when they can pay foreign workers pennies on the dollar without having to compete with wages and benefits of other companies? That’s why ‘3rd’ world countries are filled with sweat-shops with overworked children stitching our soccer balls and tennis shoes so they can buy a coca-cola at the end of the day.
