    Furthermore, a lot of these companies had their own roots internationally. Should Toyota pull its Georgetown plan back to Japan?
    Toyota built a plant here because Americans bought their product in greater numbers than anywhere else,do you think that these other countries buy more of the companies listed products than the USA?
    I say that they should put a tariff on every product coming in from elsewhere like they did in times past,this country didn't become so great by having huge trade deficits with every country in the world.

    I think a tariff would hurt more than help. For example, even the so-called "American Companies" that are employing Americans are likely buying lots of materials and supplies from overseas.

    That's why I initially said that every company is directly or indirectly outsourcing.

    It's a global economy now. We can't isolate America into a vacuum.

    I don't know the whole answer,but for some reason I think it's all about these companies beating down wages and control.
    I need to get off here I get so mad that I'd love to go to Washington DC and smack the whole mess of them around.They may not control business,but you can bet they are getting lobbyist $$$ for doing nothing about it.
