Most of your corporations effectively operate outside the U.S. in pretty well every way imagineable; from their offshore holdings, to the Asian children that actually manufacture the products that we all buy and use.

Why the fuck are you worried about one rich guy? Damn, you have more important things to consider...

If Levi-Stauss manufactured all of their products in the United States you'd more than make up the tax revenue lost from this one single guy. Americans making $8 to $20 an hour will pay a lot more taxes than Chinese school-aged children.

Probably make better pants, too. A pair of top line Levi's cost about $80 last time I bought them. That's about a $60 profit for the store. And don't bullshit me about cutting costs. Its all about profit - same as it is for this Facebook dude.

I don't blame him for bailing, and I hate Facebook.
