I could go on and on, but I think it was a great decision Adams  |
Yes I do have a job in the USA.
What I'm saying is that the whole argument of "Made in the USA" isn't logical.
It's the fundamentals of trade, and it is what makes us richer. It's a two way street. We trade with others to free up time and resources to do things we are better at. Trade lowers the cost for consumers the same as increasing income.
In the short run, yes jobs can be saved, in the long run it slows economic growth.
If we didn't support globalization we wouldn't be able to put our businesses in other areas, Adam's wouldn't be able to sell in Australia and McDonald's wouldn't be able to saturate the fast food market across the globe. As stated previously, it's a two way road and we save our time and resources for doing things we are better at.
