China investment in 'American Made'


“For better or worse, China and the U.S. have created one of the deepest and most significant commercial engagements in global history.”
 Dominic Ng

We’ve figured out whom to blame for our economic strife. China. It’s just easier to think that China has stolen our jobs, bastardized labor law standards and are standing the way of our economic recovery.
A recent article in The Future of US China Trade makes a different claim.
The article states that China firms are now realizing the potential of the US market. They’ve noticed our desire to make manufacturing more prominent in America. Now that US real estate is less expensive and opportunity is on the rise more and more China businesses are investing in the American workforce.
And they’ve got proof. Already China-owned, American-made businesses are employing thousands of workers in the US- with plans to create hundreds of thousands more.
So what does this mean? The ‘Made in the USA’ movement is working. Our viral, personal, and business campaigning is having an effect! The premise is simple: the more we create demand for ‘Made USA’ products, the more incentive we create for foreign investment.
