What enemies?

#4The two American political parties are so perfectly shielded by their own ideological blinders to avoid any possibility of national protectionism against offshoring and outsourcing that I don't think there will ever be any kind of movement against this.
The conservative base is unfriendly to foreigners and foreign cultures, and claims to prefer American-made goods and services, but will immediately guillotine any internal party member who causes consumer prices to raise substantially--which they would have to do in order to support American workers creating products rather than our offshored counterparts. And the business owners and shareholders who love to outsource generally aren't true blue voters.
The liberal base is in theory pro-union and pro-worker, but will immediately guillotine any internal party member who suggests economic discrimination in favor of native-born industries and workers.

#5That's how capitalism works, eventually everything gets moved where it's more efficient.
Obviously, time and time again has proven that outsourcing is not always more efficient.

I really find the state of American (but not only) politics dreadful where everything is seen under the lenses of conservatives vs liberals.
Most people I know, everywhere in the world have mixed views on most topics.
Let alone the fact that ideologies tend to change, modern rights are way more populist and economically-socialist than they were 2 decades ago. See Poland, Hungary, Italy, etc, where governments make money fall on the poorest, on the elderly, etc ignoring their historical electorate (middle class).

People one-on-one have heterodox views, no one likes to think they just take it all wholesale from some amorphous ideology without a leader.
If I could filter "conservatives are X and liberals are Y and it makes no sense" type thought, I would, because it's a driver of this impression.

So then that's not how capitalism works, is it?
