Make your point. I am bending-over backwards in order not to assign you the argument I think that you are making, instead believing that you should make it yourself. You simply appear content to parse words. Get on with it.

"Bending over backwards"?

If someone were to recommend slapping import duties on SW imports in order to protect US programmer jobs you'd scream bloody murder, though under the constitution the congress has a "mandate" to regulate trade and apply tariffs.

Anyway, I've made my point. There are those benefiting from government intervention, and it ain't disgruntled, out of work programmers.
