What I'm saying is quite clear:
Corporations have no duty outside of profit
They aren't here to protect the country, that's the governments job
They aren't here to make you feel good about yourself, that's your job
They aren't here to make sure you have a job, that's your job
They aren't here to make sure people here are happy, that's the people's job

They exist to make profit. That is the nature of the beast. Lions exist to eat other animals. Grass exists to be eaten by animals. Corporations exist to make profit. When Hewlitt and Packard decided to incorporate and start selling the things they made in their garage they did so to make money. When Harley and Davidson decided to incorporate to start selling the things they made in their garage they did so to make money. When the guy that invented the little pastic clip that holds the strings of your venician blinds together decided to mass produce those clips and sell them to blind companies he did so to make money. That's why corporations exist.

Reasonable restrictions can be placed on them, but they must be REASONABLE and well thought out. And when the restriction you want to put on a company is a silly one like "don't import labor" you aren't being reasonable. You're attempting to restrict their ability to make a profit so that people you think are more deserving of the company's labor dollar get it, who deserves Company X's labor dollar isn't your or my call to make, that is Company X's decision exclusively. They earned the money, they decide who earned a piece of the pie.
