OK OK don’t call just yet- because the bill does not yet exist! But, here is what I propose.
We need to get a US Representative and a US Senator who are a champion of the people (I'm thinking Alan Grayson, Bernie Sanders, Ted Kaufman) who will write short straight forward identical bills that takes away tax breaks for corporations to export jobs and turns that tax break around to give the same tax break for importing those jobs. Now you are probably thinking that is absolutely ridiculous because that will meet instant death as soon as submitted in committee. That would be true but the key is for them to bring it straight to the floor and invoke the procedure whereby it is voted on requiring a two-thirds majority to pass. Will it pass? Well I think there is a one in a thousand chance that it will.
