Should companies in the U.S. support the U.S. economy by hiring U.S. citizens?

YES.

To elaborate further....during the worst age of greed in American History, when Henry Ford was first building his auto factories in the shadow of the Robber Barons at the turn of the last century, what did he do to insure that his cars would be bought and that money would be coming in to his company...?

He paid his workers more, so they could afford the cars they were making. I'll find the Wiki version of that for you in a bit.

But the point is, anymore these days, your CEOs and Top One Percenters are so much about the greed and *so* utterly short sighted that they can't or won't seem to get it, that when you have a nation of Have Alls and Have Nones, like you would in Haiti, or like you would if *America*, the whole nation, were like New Orleans post-Katrina and left to rot, there just IS NO MONEY TO GO AROUND. Sorry to shout, but some folks are so utterly and willfully clueless online it makes me crazy.

If people have *no* money at all whatsoever with which to buy anything, that isn't the sign of a productive economy, that is a *depression*, that is a collapse of civilization at the economic level as people are forced to barter and hunt and riot to just get food, clothing and shelter....

We've only been there as a nation some seven or eight times...when are our rich and filthy going to get it?

Sure they should. However, business is not about supporting a country's economy, it's about supporting it's own economy. Say you're a corporation, and you want to drive up your net sales by, say, lowering prices. How do you lower prices by paying each worker a living wage, health insurance, a 401k, etc.? Unless there is a change in technology, or layoffs, or some other factor, it is not feasable to keep prices at a cost friendly to customers, and pay living wages, especially if it is manufacturing corporation.

While outsourcing is a problem for many Americans, it is not the largest factor in keeping up the U.S. ecnonomy. By the law of supply and demand, the lower the price the more demand, therefore pumping more money into the economy (by means of volume).

So technically, they should, but they won't.

That depends. Some businesses have customers who are willing to donate the extra money that's required to pay US citizens. This is called "paying a higher price".

If a business can't raise their prices high enough to pay for the higher wages, then you are asking them to donate the extra money themselves, which isn't really fair.

You also assume that a company can tell the difference between an illegal immigrant with a fake drivers license and Social Security card and a legitimate citizen. It's harder than you think.

YES and they should be arrested, charged and when convicted, be require to pay a $10,000.00 fine for each illegal alien they have in their employ.
The illegal alien should be charged as a criminal, and be deport as soon as possible

YES!!! they should. But its a deeper probelm. Americans do not want to work menial jobs anymore!! Its a huge problem. They are simply dot as good as forighn labor in menial and mid-level jobs. We need to go deep on this back to family values, education, trade schools ect. One idea is that US companies are given tax cuts for hiring locally.
