Foreign or Domestic to me has all to do with where the profits go. Ultimately the profits from my Mexico built 2005 Dodge Power Wagon went to Germany. Sometimes it isn't the profits that go foreign. There may be losses and it may be simply money skimmed off that goes abroad.

Japanese car companies claim they build in the United States to "do nice" for us, but it's for the same reason American car companies build in Mexico. Domestic labor became too high to be profitable.

Mercedes builds in the United States. Guess why!
