Doesn't you argument here disagree with unions though? We are already experiencing these problems. Cap and trade will do exactly what you are talking about. We shouldn't try and run companies out of the United States, by doing so, we are shipping job's overseas and harming our own economy. Cheap products do us no good if their aren't enough employed people to purchase them.

I'm not suggesting we should prop them up, I'm simply arguing we shouldn't do things to cripple them to the point where the say, "Fuck this we're moving."
