How could they have legally prevented it? Corporations in the U.S. are going to cut costs in every way they can regardless of the risk to the U.S. Outsourcing jobs, manufacturing overseas, they all do it and none of it is illegal. And there's nothing the government can do about it.

There's PLENTY that the feds could have done about it, if they wanted to, particularly in the area of pharmaceuticals: tariffs, stringent FDA monitoring of imported meds (with the cost billed to the importer) -- there would have been LOTS of ways to erase any cost saving from importing meds.

All we need is a uniform across the board really high import tariff.
