Now that execs are being referred to as "post Americans" do they deserve this title?

Question

Studies show that high end US execs feel no allegiance to the US. They view the US populace as a tool (cattle) to further their own agenda in any part of the world. Is this true? What are your thoughts?

Answer 1

Difficult to be a capitalist and a patriot at the same time. If your mission is to make money (for yourself or the company that employs you), you look to the market. You may allow morality to play into your plan in moderation (ie. child slave labour = inexpensive production), but if you are truly capitalist...this will not play at all.

If you know that your product can be produced for 50% less by being manufactured in another country...and not create the jobs in America...what would you do? Honestly? I hear alot of strong defence for capitalism versus a socialist introduction - but are those people really in support of capitalism...if it means they lose their jobs from a plant shut down?

Answer 2

I work for some VERY high level execs (they own hotels, banks, real estate...) and they do NOT feel that way. They value America, its citizens, their own company, their staff and clients. They are a company with strong values and customer service.

I have never heard the term "Post-Americans" - where did you get it? What studies did you refer to in your post?

Answer 3

Sorry, but that sounds like a load of bull-hooey.

Please cite a legitimate source for where they are referred to as "post-Americans" and source the alleged "studies" that support your claims.

Answer 4

These people have a higher chance of being diagnosed as having Anti-Social Personality Disorder, and feeling like everyone around you is expendable is a symptom of APD, so that sounds believable.

Answer 5

They own the government, so why should they feel allegiance to it. Only way to change that is to smash the system that lets them own the government.

Answer 6

They do not deserve the title.
Are YOU the one cloning me? Not funny.
