Yes. Bravo to the industries that “moved” their production facilities to China, India, etc., which resulted in their garnering 3rd world wages and the ability to utilize prison and child labor. Bravo for the profits a few people were able to retain under the name of corporate leadership. These corporations don’t move their production to these 3rd world countries. They literally sub-contract with established production facilities in the 3rd world and China.

The end result was that a few people get to rake in the extra profits from their sales at Wal-Mart which is purchased from a shrunken employment population. When once towns had 100s of 10000s of employed textile workers now they’re shut down. Those very same people that could have retained a decent living wage are now long gone and have no ability to even buy a Chinese made t-shirt from Wal-Mart.

Most are not even corporations any more and instead are LLCs.

Well, you can cry “Bravo” if you like, I think it is bullshit.

I would have preferred American businesses work out deals with our government where they keep production facilities and jobs here.
