The USA has to address the relationship it has with the companies that reside within it's borders.

I didn't set out to make this point, but, it occurred to me how important it is for some companies to be on a list of national security concerns.

This is Sandoz.

...By offering a broad portfolio (click here) of high-quality affordable medicines, Sandoz also contributes to the stability of healthcare systems worldwide, providing significant savings that can be used for the funding of costlier novel therapies, thus encouraging continued pharmaceutical innovation. In this way, Sandoz represents a key pillar of the overall Novartis strategy of offering an all-inclusive range of medicines to patients, physicians and healthcare providers along the entire healthcare spectrum. Novartis is currently the only company with a leading global position in both patent-protected and generic pharmaceuticals, allowing Sandoz to benefit from the cross-divisional flow of specialist technical, clinical and regulatory expertise....

The idea a vital company to global and national security can simply wander off the map to follow profits by cutting operating costs in another country is ridiculous.

This is more than American jobs, it is about how we support humanity including Americans. Sandoz is highly technical and demands excellent professional employees, but, it makes the point. It isn't just about bailing the companies out and then having a right to tax their exit; it is about the company, the products and the vital importance they play to global and national security. 

ie: GM. They retooled for WWII. No one would consider GM a company they could do without for their jobs, but, the potential to implications in national security extends beyond the products on the market.

There needs to be a relationship with companies that provide such dynamics to the USA and it's economy. Stability has to be at play. 

CEOs do not operate on the best interests of countries and employees. They are threat to company stability and the role that company plays to national and global security.

Orphaned vaccines is a prime example of the failure of government.
