First, get rid of most U.S. employment regulations, particularly those concerning minimum wage, overtime, unemployment insurance, health benefits, and Social Security and Medicare taxes. Such provisions keep U.S. labor costs artificially high, making Americans much more expensive to hire than offshore workers.
Second, let people cross borders as easily as capital does. How many "cheap" Indian engineers would continue working in Bangalore for extremely low wages if they could move to the United States instead?
Lastly, remove all trade barriers. Unfortunately, many governments that claim to support free trade still protect their domestic industries. A hybrid trade approach only encourages outsourcing to the detriment of American workers.
