It may behoove you to point out how the current trading environment has created a virtual veil between the average shareholder and the Corporate boardroom. How many people own their stocks through Mutual Funds and do not participate in shareholder meetings? It is the undermining of the democratic ideology of publicly traded Corporations. It is quite analogous to Government, in that when voter participation wains, so to does the accountability. No one person will make the difference, but only one person can - this must apply across the board, in Government as well as in Corporate Governance! Good Luck & Go get 'em!

You must make the distinction that corporations are not human and do not have feelings, they play by the rules that the humans set. If a corporation can move jobs overseas they will if the rules let them. I say if they want to outsource jobs, go ahead! but if you want to bring that stuff back to American to sell it will cost them to the point that it will not be worth it to move in the first place.
