It’s hilarious that people think manufacturing would ever return to this county. We are paid way to much as a whole for a product made in America to ever be competitive on the global stage when it could just be made somewhere else. To believe manufacturing could return to this country is delusional and detached from reality. It’s never going to happen. This is Econ class 101 stuff that a subset of people just can’t seem to wrap their heads around. Literally the most basic concept in all of free market economics.
