The profits sail across the seas to Japan and Korea.

It may be much more black and white than the article suggests.

Those profits go to any shareholders of those companies, and the profits don't always have to sail across any seas at all.

It sounds kind of bizarre, but an employee working on Ford's assembly line would be better off having Toyota stock in his pension fund than Ford stock.

If you are seeking the profits, buy the Japaneese or Korean stocks.
