[DeTomaso] NPC - Where are vehicles made

...When whole cities are abandoned because there are no jobs, people kill themselves in desperation
or are kicked in the street with their families, what is the difference between those that chose to
steer the companies they lead in that direction to make one more million dollars over the billions
they ALREADY have or a terrorist detonating a bomb ?

What is the difference?

One action is done in the name of Hatred.

The other action is done in the name of Capitalism.

Capitalism by itself, in any country,  is not by any necessity a bad thing.

But when executed solely for the financial benefit of those directly - management - or indirectly - investors -
affected, with no thought as to the other results to Country, fellow citizens, or employees, it can indeed see its
final results morph into something not too easily differentiated from the results displayed by terrorism.

Sadly, too many in this country, and no doubt others, view their freedom to run their business 'legally' (with
no thought given to 'morally') as total justification for their actions and any results that may consequently appear.

How different things might be if we had only wholly embraced these sentiments:

"And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you -
ask what you can do for your country."
