You see GF, it is one thing for a private company to make a decision to move jobs off shore. As a consumer we can refuse to buy their product if it bothers us so much. And as an investor, we can elect not to invest in a company that does so if we find it so objectionable.

However, the Federal government takes our money at the point of a gun and we have no direct say in participating in the off shoring of jobs other than a single vote. WIth a company I can say screw you, I'm not investing in you or buying your products. The market will dictate whether this is a good thing or a bad thing. But with the government, the screw you is going in the other direction.

And that is the difference.
