If this money you give back then leaves American shores, and ends up in China and elsewhere, and is not spent in America via government programs, how exactly would this lead to things being better?

I'd argue that cutting back on spending and regulations would help reverse the trend of jobs and money leaving America. But since you always seem to enjoy taking arguments to their most absurd extreme, I'll indulge you: clearly, we should confiscate everyone's passport and seal all borders to keep all people and their delicious, delicious monies in our glorious American economy. Only traitors would want to leave, anyway, so this shouldn't pose a problem.

Alternatively, we could lrn 2 compete, n00b. But that would just be silly.
