But this is the way of the world now. If you own a company or are high up in one it is not about where you employ them it is all about how much money you can make. Places like China Japan ect dont have a demand on high wages where places like the UK USA ect so to keep the cost down of a product to make maximum profit from it you look where it is cheapest to have it built and if it is over seas then that is where you go.

Yes its not helping your country but that is business for you. There is noting stopping then from doing this and as long as there is noting stopping them it will keep happening.

Dell are the same here in the UK we go through to an Indian call center for Business Desktop support and up until last year all the dell servers ect were built in Ireland but they decided to move it to China as it was more cost effective to have it built over there so thousands of people in one country lost there jobs and in another country thousands of people got new jobs.

At the end of the day the world evolves around money. I am not a fan of any apple product but but I can see they are just here to make money like any other company in the world as this is why we have them 1st and foremost.
