"They did not invest in their companies or their workers to stimulate new growth and job creation" You are overlooking the fact that many American companies invested in their companies by expanding overseas. It's just that they invested in China's workers, often after firing their American workers. I'm sure you've heard it said that we, meaning American business, built China's middle class. We are also building Mexico's middle class. You can Google lists of American corporations that are building factories in Mexico and the rising standard of living there. You have made quite a few derogatory comments about American corporations, CEOs, etc. and I agree with you for the most part. I'm curious though why you aren't upset with the Obama administration. Eight years went by while the middle class lost ground. Where was he? I also agree with you that "CEOs gave money to investors". That suggests to me that you agree with Trump voters who believe that capital should be taxed at a higher rate than labor. They want the carried interest loophole closed, something Obama could have done. I don't mean to offend you again by suggesting you voted for Trump, just pointing out that once again you are talking their talk.
