"I don't see how that's different from saying corporations have some kind of duty to create jobs here. The standard is not "can" a job be done here. "

The jobs WERE done here, they were already created. American corporations exported these jobs. Do corporations have an obligation to this country or not? Should corporations contribute in elections?

Corporations do not have a “duty” to keep jobs in a place that no longer makes economic sense for them. Period.

That has nothing to do with contributing to campaigns.

Again, if the U.S. wants to attract jobs to the U.S., it has to do so through favorable tax and regulatory policies. This holds true for jobs created by American as well as non-American corporations.
