No. US companies created this mess by trying to take advantage of slave labor in communist China. Them them enjoy the suck.

I’m not so sure. If Rubbermaid sells a broom that costs $10 to make at a US plant, and then a recent immigrant from China uses his connections back home to sell a broom just as good for $5, what is Rubbermaid to do? I guess they could get out of the broom business...or they can produce/buy from China (or some other third world country). But one thing they CANNOT do is continue to try to sell that US broom for $10 - no customers (to speak of). So it ends the same, we lose broom production.
...so the question is: Whose fault is that?
