Because a global competition is being held. The bigger question is why global orgs are not moving anything they have in the us to somewhere else.

Read two articles in the last 24-hours about manufacturers moving plants to the US. Lotus from Britain and one from China, I forgot which one.

Given that Trump can't last forever, our economy is uncertain and unstable, the cost of building a plant and the astronomical costs in spinning up staff, I can't believe they're so shortsighted.

Are they actually moving plants or just making cheap announcements.

yeah that is my thought every time I hear something and we saw that even before trump who is big on words over deeds.
