You sound like a union troll. You keep repeating the same lines, like you just copy/paste to threads.

America needs less regulations, right to work, and less taxes. Do that and the jobs will come back.

Although the term "concern troll" originated in discussions of online behavior, it now sees increasing use to describe similar behaviors that take place offline. For example, James Wolcott of Vanity Fair accused a conservative New York Daily News columnist of "concern troll" behavior in his efforts to downplay the Mark Foley scandal. Wolcott links what he calls concern trolls to what Saul Alinsky calls "Do-Nothings", giving a long quote from Alinsky on the Do-Nothings' method and effects:

These Do-Nothings profess a commitment to social change for ideals of justice, equality, and opportunity, and then abstain from and discourage all effective action for change. They are known by their brand, 'I agree with your ends but not your means'.[41]

Well, not quite.

We will need less regulation than exists in China, less collective bargaining than exists in China, and less taxes than exist in China. And it will have to be sufficiently less as to provide an incentive to move manufacturing back to the U.S.

Though unlikely to happen, the changes in the U.S. will have to be such that it is economically attractive to have jobs move here rather than stay there; parity will only eliminate the trend, it will not reverse it.
