Yet, the profit from such ventures is sent to the USA where it can finance expansion and higher paying jobs at home that are the innovation engine of the company.

When greedy business and evil Republicans were supposed to be responsible for shipping jobs overseas they were not only able to "take advantage of local labor, local materials" and even with the cost of transport of materials and finished products, etc., they were still able to "profit from such ventures" to "finance expansion and higher paying jobs at home that are the innovation engine of the company." So then, I guess those jobs that were shipped overseas pre-Obama also "many of those jobs don't belong here." Maybe all that gibberish about shipping jobs overseas was poo-poo to get folks like Obama elected. As I said, glad that you were able to put to rest that nonsense.

Gee, I wonder with such wondrous profit making dynamics, which jobs do belong here.

And Mitt Romney said he was going to get tough...with who again?

What on earth does Romney have to do with it. He lost. Why talk about losers. Aren't the winners the relevant ones, the ones who move and shake? Wasn't Romney accused of shipping jobs overseas? I guess THAT was a bad thing.

Depends on the company and industry. Certainly some jobs have been move purely for cost reasons. In other cases jobs have been created where it makes more sense. As I've noted this isn't always a bad thing for Americans.
