Realistic?

The main reason that outsourcing is cheaper is that foreign countries don’t have safety or labor standards.

All the progress that unions made suddenly evaporated when we allowed employers to hire foreign companies with lower safety and labor standards.

Now, maybe we should just accept that economic competition and economic competitiveness demand including those unprotected workforces. Fine. For third-world countries, even exploitative factory jobs might be preferable to alternatives.

If we accept that that’s the case, is still unjust for business owners to reap the rewards of circumventing labor and safety standards while American workers lose jobs and have their wages depressed.

Every single cent of outsourcing profit should be taxed at 100 percent, and redistributed to American workers through government programs or tax cuts for workers.
