In other words,

America is exporting jobs.

No, it's not.

The American empire is fading. Most of the jobs that you claim America is "exporting" were never here in the first place.

Apple manufactures its iPhone products and various components, for example, in places like Taiwan, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and the Philippines. Some components are even manufactured here in the U.S and shipped overseas for final assembly, believe it or not. But Apple never "exported" these jobs anywhere. These jobs never existed here in the first place.

And guess what: Most of these iPhones are sold in Asia, not the U.S.

In other words, the American empire is dying.
