Yup, they only return goods, services, jobs and taxes. Hardly worth mentioning

Excuse me? Jobs? Sure, primarly as salesmen and secretaries. The manufacturing, support, etc is what is being taken out. Services and goods? Those are free? Hardly. Those are charged for and subsidized by the consumer. In other words, empty investment into Corporate Welfare. Taxes? Only on money repatriated to the US. Most of that cash gets spent on cost of goods sold and resunk overseas into more investments. Keep trying.

If you say so.

Services and goods? Those are free?

Who said anything about free? Companies pay taxes, government provides services.

Those are charged for and subsidized by the consumer. In other words, empty investment into Corporate Welfare.

Goods are subsidized by the consumer? You're not making any sense. Well, less than usual.

Taxes? Only on money repatriated to the US. Most of that cash gets spent on cost of goods sold and resunk overseas into more investments.

So there is no profit made in the US? No taxes paid for SocSec? No property taxes, sales taxes, taxes on dividends paid to American stockholders?

Keep trying.

You first.
