If we pull out of China maybe our jobs will follow us home.

4. If we bring the jobs back, the foreigners will follow them to the US
I could almost imagine someone making that argument: if we bring those jobs back from China, we'll be inundated with Chinese prisoners following the jobs, or something like that.

5. You really don't know that they are able to outsource

our jobs because government DID allow it? There's a reason that this is happening now, and not, say, twenty years ago.

8. there should be a bill passed in congress
that whenever a US company closes plants here in order to offshore labor, all the folks laid off should be compensated with enough stock to make up for their jobs.
