At one time it was considered "conservative" to offer tax-cut incentives to companies to relocate into a region of the US and keep American jobs here, and not export them to some third-world hell-hole.

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHA!!! You got a few hundred jobs to offer and the governors will still wet themselves giving away the store in terms of tax credits, subsidies, and eminent-domain proceedings for property.

Just how out of touch are you?

Good analysis. It is Fiat Money that has caused the export of jobs, for the reasons you give.

There is also an accelerant -- the executives and bankers have learned to chase this fiat money differential very well, and the elephants of peer-group competition are now in stampede of so doing. The number doing so seems to have hit a critical mass or something some dozen or more months ago. It's now a rapidly accelerating reaction. What dampers are there on it?
