If China shut down tomorrow and every manufacturing process were moved back to the U.S., the typical domestic factory would have millions of square feet of plant space operated by several dozen employees.
I don't know what the answer is, but China isn't really the problem here.
I think as one poster commented - it’s the welfare state of mind — the mindset by most on welfare that they can do whatever while sitting on their arses and get paid...there’s really no work ethic left in them...
Maybe that’s what he/she meant to say...the ethics of showing up and WANTING to do a great job for personal responsibility - and if manufacturing returned to the US - there would be people wanting to work and produce great products...but every year that desire diminishes as those that would have onced worked get enslaved into welfare and think nothign of it...
Ethics - values - standards have all gone to hell in the US! We let this problem fester and grow into the infection that is killing our nation!
