Sure, and we do it all the time.
- Volkswagen is producing everywhere in the world, f.e in the Czech Republic, where they don't know working hour limits (or China). They are opting out.
- If in our company we have too much to do, I call India. Opting out.
- When I want to go boating and fishing, I can do this easily in the Bahamas, where you don't need any license and additionally the weather is nice. I am opting out
- You buy your DVD player from a company that never heard the word "union" and "environment protection" - you are opting out.
- Chinese people sell their crap DVD players to Europe, because they can't use them all themselves, they are opting out.
Everybody is opting out. This world is a small world and everybody goes where he thinks it's better. Protectionism just means you don't have the best rules but somehow feel you want to keep them nevertheless.
