Why do you think corporations are some sort of instrument other than making money. Do people invest their retirement money in them to make a difference in social policies or create jobs? No, they want a return on that invested dollar. All this would be a mute point if the US was friendly to business as it had been in the past. We are now the worst. If your job is to keep the company alive, why would you stay here when your competitor overseas is going to bury you.
I am a small business owner. The last thing I worry about is keeping people employed. I am there to make money with my enterprise. When I make cash, people work. When I am not making money, I am getting out of it, workers fend for yourself.
I don't see how hiring illegals factors into any of this. Is it not illegal to hire them? Since it is, our laws should be enforced to end it. Is it illegal to make a profitable enterprise? I did not know making profits in this country was all of a sudden illegal.
So if it were illegal to move those jobs overseas, you'd oppose companies doing it on the basis of it being illegal?

I don’t think that. Not at all.
I’m just trying to figure out how sending U.S. jobs to other countries and giving U.S. jobs to illegals in our own country will end with a different result or has a different goal. Still not very clear to me.
I know one is legal and one isn’t (kick the illegals out - now!) but the end result is the same. The “Just doing the jobs Americans won’t” mantra isn’t too far off from sending my job to China near as I can tell. I’d gladly work any job for half what some union hog makes.
I’m not a business owner so I don’t have to walk in your shoes. No argument there.
