  Liberals' support for unions and opposition to companies moving outside the United States will hurt the US economy and actually decrease jobs

Many Americans are concerned with companies going overseas b/c the labor is cheaper there. However, I think it is wrong for the government to step in and stop companies from moving their operations. The market and customers should decide in their purchases or complaints to the companies. An excellent example of this is Dell. They have moved much of their customer service to India. However, they have received huge amounts of complaints since then about the quality of their service. People have a much harder time communicating with someone in India than someone who's primary language is English. As a result of this, Dell is starting to withdraw their Indian tech support due to decrease in sales. These jobs are coming back to America. This is a perfect example of how the people of America can influence companies. Government mandates are not the answer.However, liberals disagree.

I just saw a Democratic campaign ad (with no mention of Kerry whatsoever, all Bush bashing) that attacked Bush for not stopping companies from moving elsewhere. I find this ironic b/c liberals are to blame for companies moving away. Yes, liberals are to blame, not the companies. It is their workers unions. They create a workers alliance against the company demanding more and more benefits. This costs the companies money and is thus fed to the consumers, which makes me upset. Eventually, these companies get sick of these unions, as say, to hell with you, it will be much cheaper to move our operations to Mexico, India, China, etc. What happens if they stay? These companies have to either raise their prices, lay off workers, or go bankrupt. And the same liberals who support these worker unions are the ones who will destroy the United States economy.
