Once you move your business from a free country to a communist, socialist or totalitarian dictatorship, do you expect the American people to protect it for you?

Certainly not. Nor do I support that bill, forget its name, which guarantees U.S. companies which choose to locate overseas.

What I do believe, however, is that there is a lot, a lot of downside to moving a company abroad.

Confiscation of the entire business, for example.

There is also possible armed revolution to consider. Poor labor, and poor supply chains to get raw materials.

Moving a business to the third world is not this panacea that everyone paints it out to be.

A businessman must calculate all the risks. Some are worth it and some are not.

But we as American citizen business owners should be free to make that choice.

Furthermore, for all those people who hate foreign products, consider that fact that each time you vacation overseas, you are sending more money $$$ to foreign countries than I likely spend on foreign products here in the U.S. in one year, expecially for an expensive $8,000-$10,000 vacation, which is not that unusual these days.

But we as American citizen business owners should be free to make that choice.

But should you choose to move your business overseas, the American people are not required to grant you corporation status, nor to guarantee that you have all the benefits of an American corporation. You effectively become a foreign corporation at that point, and necessarily should lose any benefit you might have had as an American corporation.

But we as American citizen business owners should be free to make that choice.

I don't agree with you...I don't see why you should have the right to sell YOUR Chinese made junk to us American citizens without paying a price to us, just because you were born (and got your wealth) here, on the backs of American citizens...

And as I understand it, that was the position of the patriots that fought and died so you could be free to do business in 'this' country...
