A flat tax would stop them from leaving. Taxes and regulation is what they are escaping from.

----------------------------------

Something such as a flat national sales tax would be desirable.

However, let's be honest here. What is being pursued, not escaped from, is a source of cheap or slave labor. Wha is wanted is a series of plantations like the old South where the plantation owners can profit and the incrementally few remaing people with employment can get things cheap while the plantations are moved 10,000 miles away.
