The term "insourcing" was used in the movie "The Campaign" to refer to bringing cheap Chinese labor to the US and paying them similar wages and offer same working conditions as in China to save on shipping costs.

The same reason the Kochs are the boogeymen of the left (not even the far left. Pelosi and others attended a conspiracy movie about the Kochs, and they have been chastised in the Will Ferrel movie "The Campaign." Not to mention how they were accused of things from Maddow & co back in 2009.)
People need a boogeyman because the real world is far too complex to comprehend, so having puppeteering bad guys is easier to deal with than reality of people actually having genuine beliefs that you don't agree with.
There definitely is some Antisemitism, though I don't think that's the main driver, the left also chastises Sheldon Adelson, who is also jewish.

worth mentioning "The Campaign" and "Paranorman"
