Interesting.

Except not true.
I have a problem with the out of control illegal aliens and just as big of a problem with all the jobs that have been taken out of the USA.
It is not just the corporations....it is the unions and the inefficient, lazy American culture of the 21st century Americans.

I can speak from personal experience having transferred thousands of jobs offshore. We never took any product lines off shore that we did not give the unions first shot at keeping. We never expected them to meet the labor costs available offshore...just a reasonable increase in effort and eliminating unnecessary labor and costs.
The unions position always was they were not going to compromise to keep costs competitive. They opted, every time to allow line after line of assembly and manufacturing to be removed to protect the few.

We used to do the same when it came to buying steel, for example from Japan.
The American Stella companies were never willing to mount efforts to be more competitive price wise. Which ultimately was due to their unions and ancient processing.

One example I always used for any of them was to check the number of employees driving cars from non US manufacturers.

During my career I witnessed hundreds of thousands of manufacturing jobs out of the country. And thousands of American companies disappear

Thanx for broaching one of my most favorite subjects.

It always amazed me the unions and companies that always opted for no loaf of bread VS the opportunities to maintain a half loaf or more!

So do not lay it at the feet of Corporate America!

The massive flow of illegal aliens entering US
across our southern border should never have been allowed to happen...
but the Dems allowed it to gain the Hispanic vote, and
the Republicans did nothing to get the cheap labor.
As a result America and its tax paying citizens have gotten the shaft!
