Americans moving overseas to find jobs

"U.S. workers are performing the same analysis that multinational corporations have made -- life overseas is cheaper, and in some ways easier, than in America. Reversing a trend that’s perhaps 400 years old, workers are leaving America to find opportunity elsewhere."

While our government apparently is trying to make sure that all Americans are either serfs or lords, some are deciding to try their luck elsewhere.  Does this not suggest that something has changed dramatically in the U.S.?  Is there no concern for how its citizens are fairing, but instead the concern is how corporations are doing?  This new trend shows that we should go back to putting citizens ahead of corporations.
