If only people would stop buying products from companies that outsource production. That's the ONLY way to stop it.

People complain about big banks, yet freely give their money to the too big too fail banks over smaller credit unions and local / regional banks.
People complain about jobs going overseas, but freely give their money to companies that outsource jobs.
People complain about Wal-Mart but freely go shop there to save money over small locally owned stores.
In light of all the press Disney got for hiring H1-Bs, I bet they won't see their sales fall off this year.
I can go on and on.
American consumer gets exactly what they deserve and pay for.
To be fair, in at least some of the cases, it is out of necessity; those tactics have allowed those big chain stores to keep prices competitive for those who have found themselves battling the poverty line in the wake of economic decline. It has since become a self-feeding machine.

I guess a pay cut is better than no job at all... maybe the Union shouldn't have played hardball.
This ^^^ American workers want, want some more, and want some more again. I want! I want! I want! And finally the company says, "Screw this. We don't need it." and move. If American workers weren't the pampered little special snowflakes they are this wouldn't happen. But they just priced themselves out of the market. Go ahead and boycott. All that means is you won't get the product.
