The problem is that the same environmentalists do NOT want those factories here in the US and/or want to regulate them to death. And the Unions want the factories to pay way over market rate wages when the factories do appear here. So, what is a factory to do? Move elsewhere where environmental regulations are looser and they can pay a market rate for wages.
