1. Your business becomes successful to the point where you decide that you no longer want to take responsibility of it, however you decide to keep your status by renaming your position as CEO, CFO, etc. so that you can determine your own ridiculous salary and sell your stocks to «shareholders» who then take responsibility of your business. Furthermore, if your company is a bank you can then purposely go bankrupt so that the government can bail you out to give yourself a bonus in addition to your ridiculous salary because the taxpayers will pay it and they don’t have any say-so in the government. You can also donate money without paying taxes to a politician’s shell corporation so that nobody will ever know it was you «on record.» You also (wrongly) assume that the average taxpayer is too stupid to know what’s going on here.

See that CD you just bought for $15? It cost about 1 cent to make it. How much does the artist get? About 50 cents or less per CD. How much goes into the laborers that made the CD? Well, seeing that it was either made by machines or minimum-wage workers (to assemble the case), the electricity/labor cost per CD is probably 5-10 cents. Let’s round up and say it’s a dollar total. So where’s the rest go? Into the corporation.

It’s not a liberal media, it’s not a conservative media. It’s a profiteer media. Meaning, anything that will get them a profit, they will report. Urban Dictionary

Corporations in 3rd world countries pay on average 500-800% of the income people are making there. These companies build factories there because they can pay less for labor than they would in America, meaning they in turn can charge lower prices, and sell more. By the same token, the workers who work in them don’t do so to help the company, but because it’s 5-8 times the money they would make at the next best alternative.
Voluntarily entered agreement to mutual benefit…the alternative is to take the Susan Sarandon approach (that is, legislate the jobs there out of existence…»better they starve»). The entire reason a company would go halfway across the world is because it’s cheaper…using government Force to Coerce people into paying American wages will not mean the people there will be making more money…the companies simply won’t build plants there (how could they afford to pay more for wages and for shipping? and why would any person do that?)
Bottom line, companies do not exist to provide jobs and wages. Wal-Mart does not sell bread to me for $X because I want it for that price…they offer it because the $X is more valuable to them than the bread. By the same token, I don’t exist to provide income to Wal-Mart. I don’t shop at Wal-Mart because it needs my money…I buy the bread because I value the bread more than my $X. But at the end of the day, each of us can only OFFER the other our property…neither can coerce the other; we each have the power to refuse the deal and walk away.
The situation is no different in India. A company can show up and build a factory, open the doors, and OFFER to pay people X. If X is worth more than their labor (which it surely will be if it’s 5-8 times more than they’re making now), they may choose to accept the deal. Just as the company has no right to Force people to work for them (or to order them to work under certain conditions), the individuals have no right to Force the company to hire them or employ them under certain conditions.
(As a side note, whenever a company opens a new factory over there, people typically beat down the doors to get such «low paying» jobs…they offer bribes to the employers, offer to pay their first month’s salary in return for securing a job for a family member, etc. What we consider low paying here is actually an opportunity few of them would ever see, as it is more than any other place there pays them.) Urban Dictionary
