Companies exist to make a profit. If they don't they will eventually cease to exist. That is just capitalism 101.
A nation and its Constitution along with the peoples representatives exist to serve the people of that nation.
Without that there is no country nor purpose to give allegiance to it.
Our Global Military only exist to serve the interests of Global Corporations and should be drawn back to national borders only.
We have no obligation to protect them since they have no obligation to this nation.
There is no way it's significantly cheaper to ship a refrigerator across an ocean from China than build one here. Even if an employee is replaced by a robot, someone has to be hired to maintain and program that robot.
Not sure about refrigerators, but as far as tooling, such as molds they can be designed ,built , and tried out cheaper here. This wasn't always the case but these companies continue to send work over there because they have a vested interest. Many spent millions to get set up during the offshore boom only to find out it really wasn't all that but now are stuck.
So Trump would conspire to prevent companies the freedom to make such a move?
They are free to move there and we are free to put taxes on the products they try to sell here.
We are also free to remove any protections afforded to them with our military.
We also need to be free to boot their lobbyists out of Washington DC since they only use our government to support their globalist intentions, not this country
We have absolutely no obligation in supporting corporations that move parts of their business out of this country
Look at the Millions of Bribery Money Ford tosses to their puppets

As I noted....all they cared about was the short term. The next statement. The next bonus.
So it looks as if the story is not true. Today the CEO of Ford has denied Trump's claims and indicates that they are not moving production - they are just shifting vehicle types being built in Mexico and the U.S.

The only thing that matters to the Corporate and Banking Lobbyists that control our government is the next bonus and the next dividend
The citizens nor the workers do no matter.
The only thing that matters is the shareholders.
I agree we need to hold the feet of these politicians under the fire, but, it starts not only with the president, but all puppet politicians and their corporate and banking masters.
Trump is only one person
We need to go after all the lobbyists to the left and right of him that will continue to do as they please
It's common sense.......If people can not afford your product, your product and company is worthless. It really is simple common sense and it's amazing that common sense has to be pointed out to so many.
"The owner, the employees and the buying public are all one and the same and unless an industry can so manage itself to keep wages high and prices low it destroys itself, for otherwise it limits its number of customers. Ones own employees should be ones own best customers".
Common sense. Those on welfare can not afford new cars. Common sense. Those working at McD's can not afford new cars. Common sense. Those working call centers can not afford new cars. Common sense.
That is the company's decision to make. It should not be forces upon them. If nobody buys their products because nobody can afford them, that's the companys problem.
