Well first, we can't order American companies not to make things overseas. Second, do you really think you're gonna get those goodies at a cheaper price because it's made overseas?
In your dreams! It will go to the bottom line.
Nor should we. We SHOULD however seek to create the most valuable areas of trade possible. That won't evolve by itself. Right now we are not doing it.

Absolutely. You are not citing my quote btw. Thats Common Tator's line, which I quoted in a response.
The first rule of trade should be "our suppliers are our buyers"
When that gets out of whack we have a problem.
Our investments should create new markets for our goods. Now, thats not really the goal.
So what eer one feels about the issue, it is vlearly untrue that there is no recourse for nations states in the matter. I will point out that many of the other countries involved have serious restriction going the other way.
And there are informal practices. We for example, informally required the Japanese to undertake "voluntary quotas" and build plants over here.
