corporations, what do think of them? How do you feel about them? Do you think their good for the economy or bad? Are they helping consumers or middle class americans or simply just hurting them? For startes corporations are very good at what they do. That is why they are what they are. Basically getting the gerneral public interested in their products. True enough that some of these products that we buy from these corporations may be useful in our everyday lives and may make our lives easier on a day to day basis. However, what these corporations do to make their business grow and prosper is to first off, have their products made overseas at an extremly cheap rate. Then those products are shipped back to the united states where we, the consumers, buy them. But are we just buying a product that makes our lives better? No, we are over priced products that these corporations are making almost pure profit off of. They make merchandice for barley cents on the dollar and sell it to use for more than quadruple the amount it costs them to have it made. Not only are we paying more for less, we are having our jobs striped from us and they are being given to the lowest paid country. But of course its a win win for the corporations. This is what is taking a toll on our economy. We have less jobs, therefore less people are working, which leads to higher unemployment rates. We are in a recession already because of other events going on with the country. while the corporations spend thousands on decorating their offices and buying luxery homes and cars. Corporations will jack prices up on products then on certain times of the year drop the prices slightly to make the consumer think that they are getting a good deal on their products.  All in all corporations are not good for our economy or for the consumer. It is Americas monster.
