We have a free market in America. Companies can sell their franchises almost anywhere in the world unless it has a potential to threaten our nation’s security. In most cases it helps the US economically, politically and is great PR for free market innovation.

While your comments may apply to some company moves, it does not apply to companies like Pepsi or McDonalds. If Pepsi has established a market in a foreign country, it just makes sense to produce in country. Not taking any jobs from here. Same with a McDonalds Franchise.
