I doubt there is anything in US law or WTO regs that would sanction the US government forbidding US companies from outsourcing service needs overseas. If you outlaw Indian call centers while WalMart is manufacturing half its stuff in China, a Federal court is going to throw it out on equal protection grounds in a flash.

Tax incentives are just about the only answer. Otherwise we live in a globalized world that can't be returned to autarchy by decree, regardless of the merits.
