I predict that, by the end of the year, our protectionist friends will have forgotten Waxman-Markey and will be back to complaining that traitorous U.S. companies are leaving the country (or offshoring). They won’t even try to make the connection . . . it’s not like they ever have in the past.
I never understood them on that point, on one hand they throw a fit about all the government regulation and taxes destroying business, but then, when a business moves somewhere that has less regulation and taxes, they throw a fit.. what do they expect, the business to bend over and .... well, you know..
Just one more rule or regulation will fix the problems caused by all the previous interference.
