These companies want people to believe they can’t find qualified Americans to fill the jobs, but the real reason they hire overseas is the lower cost.

“can’t find qualified Americans to fill the jobs”

That’s because one of the “qualifications” is to work dirt-cheap.

They're just following Adam Smith's advice and having work done in those countries where the work can be done most efficiently and cost effectively.

However, if Smith were around today after the invention of central heat and A/C, and he saw that the same work can be done anywhere in Earth, and that the only discriminators were lower wages and laxer labor and environmental regulations, then I believe he would have had another think about his theory.

Didn’t the UAW just get Stellantis workers a new contract in an inflationary economy? How did that work out for them?
