Before we could even think about building a factory here, we'd have to roll back pretty much every OSHA and EPA regulation just to compete with China. That would take years.
It could be done, but it would require the country to go on a war footing the likes we haven't seen since WWII.
BS. Those regulations are bad true, but to me as the end user/consumer of goods paying retail it is tiny expense maybe 1/2 cent on the dollar. MAKE IT HERE. DO IT NOW. MAybe executives could be happy with 2 vacation homes instead of 5 and make stuff here. Just sayin'.
