Something that I can’t get over...
Government imposes high operating costs for a company that does business in the US. So the company decides to lower costs by moving their production off-shore.
Everyone is surprised.
The “solution?” Demonize and further increase the costs on those very same companies for trying to save on their operating costs in the first place.
Of course it’s silly to wonder exactly what might happen if the government were to set up a system that actually encourages businesses from moving to the US, rather than encouraging them to move away.

Those 'high operating costs' are also known as 'salaries'. And companies don't need government regulations to know that they can replace a U.S. programmer with an Indian one for about 40% of the cost.
