Alternatively why not change the parameters on capital gains taxes?
If the argument is that capital gains should be taxed at lower rate to attract investment and create jobs, then capital gains realized on companies that have outsourced should be taxed at a rate significantly higher than capital gains made on companies that have created jobs.
The devil is in the details (esp. wrt. productivity) but it does try to link the apparent goal of a low capital gains tax with the labour market outcomes of the capital investments.
