Some low skill jobs are more productive in the information post industrial American economy than others. Textiles are in the "others" category.

It is not good to lose an entire industry's capability to a country that might not be our friend tomorrow.

One area I think America is going to really expand in is animal products, seeds and other agricultural products. Those Chinese and Indians are going to eat a lot of meat as they come out of total poverty.

As you say its a low skill job, but America is extremely productive at it. Unlike textiles which it seems we aren't very competitive at.
