Per the U.S. Constitution:

We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Yes, I am all for using any and all means to stop offshoring. All to provide for the common defense and promote general welfare.

Thanks for outing yourself. The Preamble's "general welfare" clause is the favorite of the leftists who have torn up the original intent of the Constitution with it for decades. Do a little research, you'll find out exactly what the intellectual heritage of your justification is. Add that to your stated intent to use the power of government to tell others what they can and can't do with there own money and property. Nice to see where your ideas originate, and what you advocate doing with them.

Hell, why not just have the government mandate which jobs a company must keep and which they can't? And set prices, too! And let's control which companies can make what! It's all part of national defense and the general welfare, right?

What a goofball...

What a ridiculous use of the Constitution. The document GUARANTEES freedom. And that includes the freedom to do business.

Have fun voting for Kerry.
