US plans institute of innovation to prevent jobs going to India
WASHINGTON: The Obama Administration has announced setting up of an institute for manufacturing innovations which will help prevent jobs going to India and China.

this is playing right into the hands of the rightwingers who claim that American workers "aren't good enough". The whole problem is that the tax breaks for offshoring jobs have to be removed, and that any U.S. companies offshoring jobs be labeled as foreign companies, and heavy tariffs imposed. 
I think we should go so far as to say,
you dont manufacture any products here, you dont get to sell any products here.
want to make cheap garbage in china? have fun selling it there.
altho, ive been hearing grumblings the last year from some businesses that claim its becoming almost as expensive to do business in china as it is here because of their rate of failure off the line.. and products having to be redone over and over
