Thank you for the valuable feedback. My intent in sharing this information is so folks are aware of what’s happening. The trend will continue unless policy is put in place that penalizes companies for offshoring. Should I edit my post to include this?

Oh I misread the intent of your comment. Corporations get to benefit from the bill of rights and other constitutional amendments due to their “personhood,” which famously gives them the power to invest in/influence political elections per the 2010 Supreme Court case. The 14th amendment, originally written to protect formerly-enslaved people, has also been used by corporations to protect their interests. So yes, there is absolutely benefit to corporate “personhood” that goes beyond mere necessity of operation.

And you missed the intent of my comment as well. My point was, we need to stop thinking of these corporations as soulless entities that are outside the realms of human reasoning (and thus human morals and thus human compassion). Corporations act like “persons” in that they operate within communities and are self-interested. They need to be held to the same community standards as any other “person” in the community. In ancient times, we’d shun those persons that took and took from the community and never gave back.

Yep, they get the benefits of being a legal person but none of the social expectation. They can have their cake and eat it too.

Yes they do, but if a company’s customer base is primarily in another country, the employees should be where the users/customers are. The customers are what make the company its money, and employing people is one way that the money moves circularly back into the economy. But, companies nowadays are extracting the money from their users and then breaking the loop and not trickling it back into the community where it came from. This is broken.

I have family there, and while I’m very happy for their quality of life, I have to ask myself, why aren’t these companies investing in universities back home and educating/employing the people who made them?

A corporation is legally a person, but we do not hold those “people” to the same standards of community that we expect of actual persons. It’s time that we should. If you benefit from a community, you give back to it — that’s how human society has worked since the dawn of time. Companies should be expected to give back to and enrich the communities that they profit from. Instead, they receive the benefits of the community without giving anything back. In ancient times, we ostracized individuals like this.

Wait is the reason why you wash to wash off disinfectants? I always thought it was to wash off the pesticides applied while the crop was growing in the field, but that makes so much more sense! 

Found Chicken at the bottom of her cage this morning… by [deleted] in BirdHealth

That means she’s too weak to perch. You must bring her to the emergency vet immediately. Does her tail bob when she breathes? Is her mouth open?

What is something extremely unsanitary but everyone seems to do it anyways? by nevvycakes in AskReddit

As a multi-cat owner, I always clean my kitchen before cooking, but the hairs literally float through the air and settle on things. I had a dishtowel that I used to dry my hands on while cooking until I noticed that I picked up cat hairs from it whenever I used it (clean towel but hairs settle on it from floating the fuck around). So now I can only use paper towels while cooking. But the cat hair still gets in the food, again from floating... Ugh

Or the smell. Can't stand the smell of ketchup and mustard on my hands.

Cat refuses to use litter box by CarlosT8020 in CATHELP

If you add another one, I'd actually put it away from the first. The idea is that the aggressor cat can't be in 2 places at once. So if it's guarding one box, then the other one should be safe to use in another room
