Steve Jobs started everything software and hardware manufacturing in Silicon Valley with American employees and contractors.
He didn’t want to move jobs overseas. He had to remain in existence, to compete and keep Apple alive.
If American tax and regulation policy were half as innovative as Steve Jobs least successful innovation, then we would not have seen the jobs flee to offshore locations.
One brilliant political change that would revive American manufacturing is right here:

Why Steve Jobs was a liberal is I believe because the Republican Party, their establishment is retarded. The Stupid Party is an embarrassment. I remember being in California during Reagan. People came around to the Conservative brand during Reagan. They started to understand the political philosophy of Reagan. Because Reagan was not from the Republican establishment; Reagan was smart, brilliant, passionate and wise. Both Jobs and Wozniak received medals from President Reagan.
