<<People expect companies to not act in their own interest.>>

No. I think even the worst knee-jerk liberal expects companies to act in their own behalf. But, they would probably argue that at some point (and that 'point' is certainly a suitable topic for debate) society should attempt to balance the needs of labor (and in some cases entire communities) with the needs of business.

<<people still hold the irrational belief that even though a huge discrepancy in employment cost exists between the US and other countries that somehow the government can pass laws that keep US jobs from leaving for less expensive locations>>

Irrational? Not sure I see why. However, if you simply mean it isn't going to happen, then I'd agree with you (at least in the short/intermediate term).
