Apple creating manufacturing jobs in the U.S.

Apple's CEO Tim Cook announced that Apple is going to invest one billion dollars to create more manufacturing jobs in the U.S. He said that the one billion was an initial donation. He also said that apple has already created two million jobs in America and that they plan to hire thousands more. He says that if they create these jobs that these jobs will create more jobs around these. 

Why do you think Apple would do this? I think that Apple would do this because they realize that their is potential in having more jobs in America.  

Do you think this will help America? I think that this will help America because it will create jobs and it might lead other companies to invest in America instead of other places.

  • I think that Apple is doing this for there own good and trying to expand business and trying to create jobs for the people in the U.S. and get more money flow going for there company.

  • This not only promotes Apple in the news as a good company for employing a lot of citizens, but it gets there company more business. I do believe this will help America and ultimately bring down the unemployment rate with the other steps to bring down the high number. 

  • I think Apple would do this because it would be a smart move in order to get more business within the United States. I think it will definitely help America because it will create more jobs for people. 

  • I think this could help america but I have a feeling it will be a lot of factory work and just adding more of that to america will be causing pollution and things we don't need. Providing jobs for america is good tho especially for all the unemployed. 

  • I think they are doing it partly to help out the economy and partly to get some kind of benefit from the government for making these jobs. I think it will definitely help America because any new jobs are good jobs and allow people to be able to support themselves. 

    • I agree with you on this partially being able to help with the economy and get some sort of benefit from the government. And yes this will help America job wise.

  • I think that apple just wants to have more works and they and also creating more jobs for Americans. I think that this will help america because apple is creating more jobs for Americans. even thought it is a big investment i think that it is the right thing and in the long run it will help Americans with finding jobs, so that there will be more job opportunities.

  • I think Apple is doing this to create more jobs in America.  Apple is an extremely large company with major influence and success, so I think creating more jobs in America is a great change and opportunity.  I definitely think this will help America.  This will create thousands or even millions of new jobs for Americans and hopefully will boost the American economy. 

  • Well its obvious that apple wants to help American people have jobs more than other countries just for cheaper labor. Well the unemployment rate is now at 4.4 which is the lowest in a decade, so yes I think it would help a lot.
