>>>>Or let's try something that hurts more: companies outsourcing jobs probably still have the tax benefits they got for creating the original jobs here. Which party will pick that issue and push it through the media?

>>>Again, demand driven. First, identify a company that has tax breaks ( specifically ) and outsources jobs ( how many, to where ) contrary to the spirit of the tax break. ( i.e they had to get the tax breaks originally because they created domestic jobs )

>>>I don't think it would be difficult at all to find either a politician or a media outlet who would be interested. (I'm sure such cases exist, but until someone identifies a specific case it is hard to get media or politicians fired up about a generalized impression that something is happening. You have to put faces on it.) And I'm sure some elements of both the media and the political culture are looking for test cases.

>I completely agree that there is a lot injustice to be addressed and I always feel we are not getting our money's worth out of our governments. but I also have low expectations that government is qualified to social engineer solutions to many of these problems. I believe many can be solved, but only by the private sector creating win-win situations where a solution is accepted because it works rather than mandated because "the experts" have decided it is good for us.

Unfortunately, most corporations have no interest in 'win-win'. They are only interested in 'win'. What happens on the other side of the hyphen is of no real interest to them.
