Martini, your post would make an excellent MBA project. What could the government have done to maintain those dental jobs here in the states?
You site dentist greed as a big reason for the move. I wonder if there is any greed on the part of your friend or just a rational business decision based on his discovery of a large lab in China that could make high quality crowns for a fraction of the cost. What would have enabled him to maintain those jobs here with the enormous cost differential? Is he suggesting that the quality of Made in China crowns are equal or superior to US quality? Has Chinese quality now reached that of that US or is he willing to sell an inferior product in order to increase his profit? Are patients being advised that they are receiving a Made in China crown?

What could the government have done to retain or bring back those jobs with the cost of the Chinese product being a fraction of those he produced? I can’t see a reduction in taxes great enough that it would have eliminated the need to ship those jobs offshore. It would be interesting if you could get some real life input from your friend.
