Your comment points to the fact that the globalisation project we've embarked on for close to 70 years is either sick or dying... What does it matter if the company still employs Europeans and supports local economies?

All else being equal, a locally-owned business is better for the local economy than a foreign-owned business - which is not to say that foreign investment is a bad thing when it brings in more capital.
