“how to do it?”.

Bring reason to regulation. If you must have regulation, then make sure it applies equally to imports, at least from a price impact perspective.

Today we are literally chasing businesses away. If you stopped doing that, you may find that they don’t leave.

Mexico is a perfect example. The cost of manufacturing is a fraction of what it is in the US and labor costs are not the only reason.

I don’t hear the globalist corporation crying over regulations. Those relations are the cover story to get “conservatives” on board with what is really going on which is labor arbitrage across international borders.

Slap a tariff on them increasing the price as if they were paying their employees $15/hour and conforming with all the taxes and regulations that American businesses must deal with. I think I’m joking.

OSHA and the EPA are 95% of the problem.
