Americans are subsidising Facebook for the rest of the world? It seems like we should get more for our money.

You mean American corporations. American users aren't Facebook's customers.

All users are just product to Facebook.

It could well be that Facebook's American corporate customers are more interested in worldwide product than domestic product.

If they have more revenue per person in the US it doesn't mean that they are losing money in their international business.
