40yrs?
Outsourcing and automation have been around since dirt turned brown.
That’s my point.
Wuhan? Go print something-that bright copy paper has been pollution controlled out of US manufacturing. That’s part of the govt burden crushing full time jobs.
It’s govt prohibition resulting in outsourcing.
True, but the trade deals that gutted our manufacturing and replaced American talent with foreign talent were passed about 25 year ago.
As for automation, automation used to create American jobs to replace the ones that were being eliminated. You couldn't get a job building carriages once cars came along, but the industry to make the cars, maintain them, and fuel them created far more jobs than were lost. Likewise, computers may have eliminated some jobs, but it created tech jobs galore.
What has changed is that now most of those jobs are either in foreign countries or filled by foreign labor. Why? So we could save money on the things we buy? How is that working out?

Yes, Wuhan. The government implemented regulations for doing business, then passed trade deals that allowed companies to avoid those regulations by outsourcing. Although some regulations were overkill, some like not dumping industrial waste into our water supply made a lot of sense.
Wuhan is the perfect example. restrictions were implemented after lab accidents had occurred in US labs. As a result, "Dr Anthony Fauci – the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and currently the leading doctor in the US Coronavirus Task Force – outsourced in 2015 the GOF research to China’s Wuhan lab and licensed the lab to continue receiving US government funding."
I hope you're not too dense to see what I'm trying to tell you.

What resulted in outsourcing is implementing regulations in this country, and then allowing companies to outsource to get around those regulations. This included treatment of workers in addition to environmental regulations.
I'm all for free trade as in fair trade, but forcing Americans to compete with slave labor is not fair.
