  1. Greed is the reason for many of these big business companies moving out. Just because of few savings in dollars, they jump ship.

  2. GOOD, VERY GOOD, now they can turn those former mall sites into a lot of low cost affordable housing estates for thousands of low income families that need them during this pandemic.

  3.  Dillon McCluskey  Yep, but they always have money for wars that destroy other countries.

  4. What nonsense. After receiving big money stimulus in the range of $5trillions and more from congress in 2020, what else do you expect this rich guy to say. The US NY stock market does not, and has never reflected the true state of the US economy. The stock market came into existence by the rich, for the rich its that simple.

  5.  @feed_me_cookies  And at the end of the day, they are bailed out with $trillions in taxes paid by struggling hard working Americans many of whom received less than $2,000/person stimulus for 9 months during this pandemic. Yeah, that is not greed at all, its business. lol.

  6.  @feed_me_cookies  Sorry, but based on the matter of free market economics/capitalism, i will not support your assessment. Corporations, big or small are not supposed to receive bail outs or any form of stimulus package from the govt or the Fed (backed by govt guarantee most times) for any reason whatsoever. They are private corporations and as private corporations, they are supposed to have slush funds set aside for these sort of situations while operating in a capitalist free market economy. It does not matter if it is covid, a hurricane, earthquake, economic sanctions, tornadoes, e.t.c. They are supposed to know how to prepare for the unexpected. They are in this situation because they have been buying back their shares at the stock market, creating an artificial scenario of good corporate governance which is far from the truth. When certain govts around the world, especially in the west keep bailing out, or provide stimulus funds to these businesses, the more they get richer & the more they take these administrations for a ride. Such businesses have alternative sources of funds e.g funds from their shareholders, stock market debenture loans, corporate bonds, national industrial bank loans, e.t.c. to help them get back on their feet after the crises. That is how free market economics in a capitalist country's economy should work.

  7.  @feed_me_cookies  Well you may think so but, you should know that the American economy in the 50s had tremendous growth under President Eisenhower when taxes on the rich and their businesses were in the range of 70-91%.

  8.  @feed_me_cookies  Hahahaha...no, i am not a socialist but i do believe in a mixed economy as well as the rich & wealthy paying their fair share of taxes. Local, state, federal, income & consumption taxes should not be avoided by corporations. In spite of everything, have a great new year.

  9.  @feed_me_cookies  I thought you said good bye! Any way, yes a small percentage of the people at that time paid the 70-91% tax but those small percentage were the very wealthy because after the war very few of them existed, unlike today. They are in their thousands now. Do you know how the rapid US industrial base came about? The economy needed to generate lots of money/revenue because of the war. Taxation and the Bretton-woods agreement in Europe made the $$$ dollar a reserve currency was the way to go. That is what helped built the industrial age among other things not the baby boom.

  16. I don't see anything wrong with paying $15/hr minimum wage to unskilled workers working at Amazon, Walmart or any similar business outlet (most are teenagers by the way) but when that same sum is paid to skilled workers, or professionals then that is the problem that should be addressed.

  17. A pill? The new covid drug by Merck is a pill and not a vaccine? But isn't that what Ivermectin pill drug also does, works in some ways to fight covid as long as it is prescribed by a sound qualified medical doctor? I guess those researchers at Merck must have had the same idea about Ivermectin, did their research and came up with a pill that will work against covid. Smart guys....

  18. They take loans from banks to invest in their company/ies but will not earn an income? BS, who says they are not taking a small, small part of that loan and spending it as an income for their own use. You think they will declare it as an income? Only a proper investigation can expose this selfish act of theirs....
