      It is too bad no one talks about the obvious. Americans want the jobs. The foreign jobs pay for the same quality of life. In the USA the same quality of life cost is inflated so much by corrupt mismanagement that it makes Americans uncompetitive. Housing and food should be a tenth of what they are. The USA has no shortage of land, just a massive lack of zoning management and reform. The US is one of the largest food exporters in the world. High costs here are a ridiculous corruption and mismanagement. The nonsense coming out of the Right is an attempt to prevent reasonable legislative reform. It is about controlling the conversation in a dos attack. This is the only way the criminal billionaires can keep their criminal legal loopholes open. The USA has 1/10th of the laws and protections of any western country.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    MANILA, Aug 10 (Reuters) - Analog chipmaker Texas Instruments (TXN.O) is planning to invest up to $1 billion to expand its Philippine facilities, the Southeast Asian nation’s presidential communications office said on Thursday.

    Texas Instruments is set to submit in two weeks an application covering the expansion of its sites north of the capital Manila, the presidential office said.
