d. reduced foreign direct investment (FDI) into the United States and lower-quality goods being produced domestically

Explanation:

Industrial espionage has been a problem for many years, the Economic Espionage Act of 1996 establishes heavy fines and severe penalties for those found guilty of it (up to 15 years in jail). This type of things have occurred since many years ago, and not only in the US but in the whole world.

I personally disagree with the part of losing jobs, since each country is like a large corporation and they all compete against each other. The same as a corporation must develop comparative advantages to beat the competition, countries have to develop them also. One the greatest comparative advantages of the US is highly trained professionals. Anyone might argue that the US is losing manufacturing jobs, but we are not losing high tech jobs, we import thousands of Hindus per year because we don't have enough engineers.
