Spouse Of Former G.E. CEO: Corporations Move Jobs Overseas To Take Care Of 'Widows And Orphans' Shareholders

Who will look out for the poor widows and orphans people? No, this is not a parody. This is from an actual segment on Faux "news." During a discussion about corporate taxes supposedly being way too high in the United States on Fox's Bulls & Bears, wife of former General Electric CEO Jack Welch, Suzy Welch said this in response to one of the other guests, Nomiki Konst, bringing up the topic of corporations outsourcing their jobs overseas:

WELCH: Nomiki, they're moving overseas because they are seeking better tax treatment (crosstalk). And Nomiki, before you say this is just the fat cats who want to make more higher salaries, that's not the case. It's because they want to return higher returns to shareholders, who happen to be widows and orphans along with people of average means.
