The government forcing someone to hire an american worker, at the expense of their company, is tyranny. You may be a Republican but you certainly are not conservative. Good luck finding new employment.

A little quote for you ...

Firstly, it seems to me that the GOP, over the course of the 20th century, allowed itself to be taken over by people who could only be described as extreme money mongers with anarchistic political and geopolitical tendencies

Oh, I'm conservative as they come. But thanks for misrepresenting what I said. Policy has put businesses in the position of outsourcing or losing their contracts because others have already done it and are bidding against these companies based on the slave labor rates they can get overseas. So, yes, the Government is indirectly reponsible for what is happening. I didn't pass Nafta and I didn't do away with Anti-dumping laws or pull an endrun around the constitution for all this free-traitor crap. I did my job. And for it, I'm being handed my hat.

Wrong. He may be a Republican, but he's not a free traitor.

The government forces companies to hire people all the time. The government says you have to hire women, even if you don't want to, you have to hire people of different races, you have to hire people with different religious backgrounds. Its called equal opportunity employment and its federal law.

So why can't they force you to hire Americans, if they force you to hire everyone else?

Using a tariff to level the playing field (not talking protectionism) so that if indeed an Indian worker can do the job better they will get it is fine. Letting a nation destroy the environment (Im not a green person but there should be *some* protection), have kids work 12 hours a day, and pay people a poverty wage is not ok, and should not be rewarded with free trade..
