Simple. Raise import taxes, and enforce safe working conditions off shore for all employee's for a business that imports to the USA.
You then close the loopholes and write off benefits that companies use to operate offshore. Since the 1900's America grew only because we made our own stuff. Later down the historical line of events politicians and business men moved in with great ideas like "Free Trade" Which is not free trade whats so ever and began making policies that cheated the American Labor Force by providing benefits to companies to open shop abroad. Things such as tax breaks on imports and in some cases even government grants to build manufacturing off shore. Everything is now akin to the Fox guarding the hen house.
Its all on paper bro, but the average American pays no fucking mind because we have become a dumb and stupid ignorant society.
America should not condone the conditions that offshore labor forces endure. American Politicians should not encourage and provide benefits to companies that import. Politicians are bought off and sold now via lobbying, corporations or rather the small few wealthy now have a check book ready to pay off law makers to grant benefits that further a corporate agenda. In the past it was quite the opposite to when the US government would give all the benefits to companies within the USA.
