[An.American.Expatriate]

here is no benefit to the USA to have companies based in the USA employ workers outside the USA when they could be employed here.

So the Walmart in Germany should employ a US Citizen in the US at the check out line - UPS should employ US Citizens for it's delivery personal in France, etc ...

Interesting concept ....

Nonsequitur. Retail and manufacturing are disparate in that respect, and retail in that arena is not taking jobs away from Americans.

Read Hamilton’s “Report On Manufactures”. There’s text online.
