You’ve got to be kidding. You’re faulting a businessman for making investments in other countries? Do you think that’s the same thing as relocating a manufacturing facility to a foreign country? You think building a hotel in Dubai or owning a casino in Macau is anti-American?
If people don’t invest in the U.S. it’s because the potential return isn’t worth the assumed risks. Period. The culprit, btw, is onerous regulations, high taxes, and a hostile legal environment.
