I firmly believe that this is going to be a major election issue, and we had best get to work on fixing the problem! The only way to fix this is to reward, not punish companies into keeping jobs here.

you have to do both, reward and punish. punish some with taxation, and take the money you get from them and reward the others.

But you cannot simply "reward" companies for keeping jobs that don't add value. That is how France got into the position it is in. Ditto Japan---the Japanese insisted that their corporations hold onto workers well past their ability to add value, and their industries collapsed.
