So called "public corporations" are actually owned by The Investor Class
(you know, the people that pay a top tax rate of 15% on multi-million dollar
capital gains), who chase markets globally to ever increase their mountains of
wealth. They don't much care what a company has to do to earn high returns. Now
bubble after bubble is being created, faster and faster, in an attempt to keep
their piles of loot growing. I have kept my savings in cash for awhile now.
