The long-term solution at the low end is ultimately more and better-paying jobs, which starts with a larger investment in education and tax and health care reform policies that incentivize entrepreneurialism rather than career nesting. If people could access low-cost health care separate from employer-based policies, many would indeed migrate to new ventures, both as owners and as employees. The solution at the high end is a sensible corporate tax rate to remove the incentive to create these diversionary funnels and more aggressive policy and enforcement to facilitate retention of domestic earnings.
In the real world, Richard, Capitalism is messy, but it is better than any scenarios your big government can come up with. Every time Government tries to fix a problem they create more problems then trying to fix those problems they create more problems etc etc exponentially expanding WAC-A-MOLE. Creating an ever increasing unproductive bureaucracy that stifles whatever they try to fix. Look at the massive increases in spending on education in the last two generations; it has been a massive failure for all except for the excessive benefits paid to public school educators. Eighth grade graduates from the middle of the last Century were better educated than a significant percentage of today's college graduates. Yeah Capitalism is messy, but support for big government solutions is criminally stupid.
