To a certain extent. A tiny fraction will go to creat more $0.06 a day jobs in china. Another $0.06 job will yield dozens of new shoes a day, wich can generate hundreds in profit. The profit goes right back to the company. From there it's distributed between advertising, executives, and the same investors. That's less money being given out and more money being taken in. Note that the only people who profit from this little system are investors and executives. The people in the other countries will be dead from malnutrition soon but they're expendable, more a resource than anything.
at least they have a job. without that shoe factory they would have shit.

its risky to start a business. there's a huge failure rate for start ups, so in order to compensate for that risk you require a return on your investment.
