"So" that's $23 Billion OUT OF THE US ECONOMY. $23 Billion in SALES that American businesses are being deprived of, which they would have gotten, if Americans (who don't send out those remittances) were working in those jobs, as they should have been. And Billions that could have allowed those businesses to create more jobs (FOR AMERICANS),
"So" this is 21st century imperialism, you know-nothing. It is how countries imperialize other countries, nowadays, in place of the now outdated militaristic Viking, Nazi, Mongol etc ways of the past, which only ISIS still employs.
