I almost threw up at Trump's little warning to business


Saying that he will force businesses to not hire people in other countries. He will get rid of NAFTA and will stop the TPP.

People in other countries are just as deserving of a job as Americans. And I or anyone can hire whomever and chose to do business where ever we wish.

His thinking displayed today belongs in the ashbin of history.

They do not believe people in other countries are more deserving of jobs with American companies than they are.

Hypocrisy aside.

Employing people in other countries in some cases is a very wise and mutually beneficial to business here and overseas. He seems to think the US only imports and has zero exports.
