Actually, in order to market domestically, yes, yes they do.


So greed & desperation for the Chinese market has caused America's "best & brightest" to accept unfavorable Chinese laws? Companies that are free to not do business in China.



I find it amusing that a nation of 800 million communist peasants , in a little over 3 decades ,has the world's largest economy whining about unfair trade.

Western companies thought China would allow themselves to be exploited as a cheap labor source by these multinationals without getting much in return?

Greed and desperation? Really?

No!

You were ignorant as to the Chinese business environment when you asked "Does China force Apple, Boeing, GM ,etc....build plants/ do business in China?"

Just as you are ignorant as to fiduciary responsibility and capitalism in twirling to your new yarn.

the price of those ford and chevy trucks made in monterrey that the baws like to lift and drive to the refinery where they work, which imports quite a bit of the oil from mexico is also going up. a high percentage of medical equipment used to take care of our processed food eating fatty population comes from mexico that shops at walmart to buy cheap crap made in china, not mexico. North american supply chains are very integrated and that can't be changed quickly. China is a different story. that's why the vast majority of republican senators oppose Mexican tariffs. Turtle has even said Trump needs to come talk to them. Veto override is likely.
