Ok you are using an example of a German company manufacturing a product in the USA, every bit as complex (more so IMO) as an iPhone, to support Apples’s decision to off shore to China. So I have that right? You are insane dude.

Apple didn’t “offshore” to China - they built a production unit in China that created a monster company of mega successful products that have brought untold billions of wealth to this country. You can’t start with the assumption that every manufacturing job is by definition American, therefore any production anywhere else is “offshoring.”

That monster company has created many American millionaires in this company - employees, investors, etc. They spend untold millions renting space in American shopping centers and with their American ad agencies. Their employees and stockholders buy homes, cars, sushi, yogurt, clothing, etc.

Economics is not simple, nor is it controllable. Central Control has never worked in world history.
