You say no US jobs created or money made in the US. That is totally incorrect.

Ebay makes money off them as does Amazon. Both of those companies actively recruit these sellers, and jobs at both of these companies have been created due to the increased sales. Even state sales taxes are collected in some states.

Any job that can be done overseas, will end up there in the digital world.

Free trade kills jobs and incomes in the more developed countries, the wealth transfers to the less developed countries. Ain’t globalization wonderful?

I did not say that. A quote in the article did.

In my own opinion, it’s not that the playing field has tilted to vertical, or that there are no benefits (such as to US buyers). However, a 45 degree tilt is not right...!
