Midland Venture Capital versus Edward Yarock saga

The 1960s attempt by Midland Venture Capital to gain control of Yarock's New York office supplies firm ended in conflict with the SBA. Midland acquired 80 percent through loans, violating SBA rules, and sought to divest by 1981. A stock swap with Royal Business Forms led Yarock to protest, triggering SBA review. The SBA approved the deal despite Yarock’s option for employee stock plans, and Midland later faced bankruptcy. Royal later sold the firm after losses. Yarock, embittered, questions SBA support.

The maquiladora system fuels cross border manufacturing

Nogales Mexico hosts plants under Mexico's maquiladora program where low wage workers assemble goods for U.S. brands such as Westinghouse GM Ford Mattel RCA and more.
