Why are we losing jobs?

An emotionally driven question without much thought before hand. If companies enter into a contract with other companies, entities, or individuals they each become parties of the first part (the entity named first on a list of such entities), parties of the second or third part etc. You might get the idea, particularly if you are a liberal and have a superior education to mine. We don't just have legislatures and executives we have courts as well which have to be able to sort out cases and make rulings according to law and consequentially some laws have to be written in consideration of this.
