I'm sorry, are you under the impression that working for a company and living in a country are the same thing?

No other country has the obligation to continue buying american goods. They can boycott us if they want, and I encourage them to, as our "upper management" is actively making their lives harder.

Because that is what you're objecting to: other countries boycotting us. It's the exact same situation. You're just objecting to diction, which is the last ditch of the losing side. No country has any obligation to buy our goods. Period.

No, it is not "just diction." There is an actual tangible difference between a worker in a company and a civilian in a country, and you pretending that there is no difference doesn't make you the "winning side." Leaving a company is a relatively simple matter; leaving a country is not in the best of times, but especially not in a period of near global anti-immigrant sentiment.

And I think the fact that boycotts are viewed as the only manner in which people can express their disapproval of the actions of the powerful is both a capitulation to the logic of capitalism and an argument against globalization more broadly. But those are bigger, more difficult problems that most people would rather not deal with. And in the meantime, ordinary folks suffer from the effects of these actions while the powerful, the people actually responsible for all of this crap in the first place, go completely unscathed! The argument is that "life's not fair," but this goes beyond the unfairness of collateral damage, because the damage isn't collateral at all. It's completely soaked up by the people who least deserve it, and dodged by those at whom it's aimed.

I'm not spending my Saturday teaching you basic international economics. I have much, much better things to be doing. Please, go to school.
