It's still a loss of American jobs in Michigan. And those profits from those Toyota plants go to the coffers in Japan.... they don't stay here. Of course, we live in such a global economy, it's becoming difficult to separate one from the other anymore. Heck, even the company we are fans of here is nothing more than the American subsidiary of a German conglomerate.
You can say, about the profits going to the japanese companies, the same for american companies. They manufacture and sell over seas, and the profits come back to teh american company. So while the american companies manufacture overseas, causing loss of jobs here, the japanese, and other country manufacturers are opening plants here giving jobs back to the americans.
