Re: Depends on where the jobs come from

Your economics is a little amiss. If a company finds it profitable to move the jobs to a rural area, it is very likely a net benefit, or else it would not be done, considering the cost of the move. If a city can no longer afford to maintain its infrastructure, then they should reduce it. That is the same with businesses or individuals. Preventing the movement of people (or goods in the case of imports) is merely protectionist. It only helps those being protected, but is a net loss to the U.S. economy.
