Send Jobs To China/Mexico

I was reading this story: http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-jobs-offshoring-20101006,0,1485516.story

And I was aghast!  I had no idea how we were actually paying for companies to send their jobs to Asia and South America.  The Department Of Labor spells out how we have pay to cover workers, victims, of US companies sending jobs to other countries.

This about makes me puke.  Who thought this up?  As far as I can tell, Bush 1, started it, Bill Clinton signed it with modifications, and Bush 2 increased benefits to companies that moved jobs out of the US.

I want to throw up....
