Because US companies aren't doing it. They're not even trying. They're going for the slave labor wages and cheap real estate in foreign countries. The Chinese, Japanese, Indians and Koreans have figured out how to come here, pay at or near union wages without any union dues. They employ Americans here, and whether or not profits leave the country? Those American wages stay here. So if anyone has a beef? Take it up with American companies and unions.I get the whole union thing. I guess the point I was making is that teddy made all that sound appealing and it does. So my question is if it sounds so appealing when foreign owned companies do it then why can it not be just as appealing if US owned companies were to do it? I think we all can agree that we would prefer US companies play that role to strengthen and preserve our own sovereignty as a nation.
