    The answer depends on how you define and measure a better economy. When you can do that the question answers itself.

    That would explain why the sammiches were cheaper. American companies despise competition.

    I agree, but most folks aren't ready for the share-shifting of privilege that that would entail.

    Did you not like that truth?...did you not want to admit that we choose to let poverty continue?

    Give it time, for the past 40 or 50 years we've been working towards that goal by getting rid of workers and consumer rights, you might be able to experience it yourself before you…

    I apologize, it occurs to me that English isn't your first language. A job isn't something that you give to to others, it's something that you need that others fulfill.

    I give tons of companies jobs, it doesn't change anything.

    Well, it's not nothing...but making the ridiculously poor slightly less poor isn't something I'd call an "amazing achievement" since it's stupid easy to make them not poor.

    So you're high-strung and uncomfortable around people? I think that's an important thing for the hiring manager to know.

    *as well as centralized?...sure it can, which means that it's centralized. What it cannot be is completely independent.

    an organization is centralized by definition, it's just a matter of scope, the arbitrary place where you draw the line depends on your politics.
