Here's the truth. for 5 minutes look at everything around you and see where it was made and who made it.

Then research how much tax the company made, how many American jobs they created to make the product and how much they spent outside the US.

This is billions of $$$$ flowing out of the US, same here in Europe. If it continues there will be more homeless on the streets of US cities and towns.

The only way to stop this is to block imports from countries who only want to sell, or tax the companies that take money out of the US economy.

Or go bankrupt. On a personal level, because your customer base isn't in the Third World, it's in the first. And a billionaire needs only one dating app. He most certainly isn't creating jobs for 1,000 Americans who need one as well. By exporting jobs, he became a billionaire.

This applies to people employing illegal Mexicans to clean their hotels.
