Not sure whether this means punishing China, punishing companies for moving there, ignoring the problem and hoping the Chinese will come to the end of their tether and be pulled back much as the Japanese were not too long ago or whether America just needs to concentrate on domestic industries that because of their nature, like energy companies, cannot be easily outsourced.

Obama and Romney have the same strategy. They will do nothing to piss off the rulers of this country. Corporations.
