A comment on Foxconn to Build $10B Factory in U.S. Parent comment
Let's create another scenario. We are family members. Whatever I earn, I give you half.
Scenario A: I never get a job, you end up with $0.
Scenario B: I get a job, but only if you agree to take 25%, not 50%. I take the job paying me $100 and you get $25.
It's not cash out of anyone's pocket.
