An Open Letter To American Based Companies

If you care about your country, and the opportunities that it has allowed for your growth and prosperity, please invest in your own country and its peoples. Please stop moving your corporations and production plants to other countries.

I understand that often times you are looking to increase profits and reduce overhead, however by taking jobs away from the country that you yourself live in, you are preventing us from using or purchasing your products.

You say the laws and taxes make it hard to operate in (enter state here), then please work with the people of your state and your country, so that we have to opportunity to tell our law making representatives that things need to change. Please note that if given the chance, Americans will change things. Remember, true Americans are a defiant bunch, and that's how and why we're a great nation.

Just think, we're not going to have to worry about illegal immigrants coming in and "taking jobs away" from those citizens who live here because American based companies are taking the jobs to them. Maybe, we as American citizens can migrate to the manufacturing jobs that you have taken just across the border. But wait, we can't work in their countries, it's illegal.

This is my country, this is my home. My bloodline fought and died for its ideals and its dreams, I get the feeling many of yours may have as well....or have recently come here in search of the opportunities its foundation can offer. However now, it seems that those same ideals and dreams are being forgotten and no one cares about investing in their home anymore.

This is just a simple request from a proud American. Please consider your country and your home when making business decisions. And please don't sell out your own country for a profit that will only last your lifetime. And if this matters to you, ask yourself, "What type of country will my family be left with when there's no industry here to support its superpower?"
