sure you will need SOME local jobs like doctors and services that are US domestic by nature...but opening a research lab in china is like 10x less expensive than in the USA...you will have to follow 10x less laws in china...

with US education being the predatory system that it is, skilled workers are in deficit anyway...1 trillion $ student debt and growing, its not going to get better...1/3 of your population has a college degree...the other 2/3 need a job too

"the shit jobs went to china we will all be scientists and programmers" is not a valid argument IMO...
Absolutely. Once you drop your socialist dogma you make sense.

US corporations rely on the West for sales. We need to tell them that if they want to make abroad and sell in the West, then transfer profits to a tax haven. They will be closed from selling in the West.

Those companies are running the World for the benefit of the 1%.
