Hello?
Both parties need to stop exporting our production, and bring back American factories to give Americans jobs.
Both parties have sold out America.
I believe the first one to turn back and protect America first, will win this contest.
Who will it be?
The reality is that we live in a global economy where instruments built into exported American made machinery are sourced from Brazil and Korea. The global effort makes the world go ‘round
If and when “American factories” come back, they will be using American robots, supplanted by perhaps one-tenth the labor force they did back in the ‘50s - ‘70s.
If American companies were forced to return their factories to America, it would result in relatively few new American jobs. The much higher cost of labor here would primarily mean that companies would invest in automation wherever possible.
BTW, how does “limited government” square up with forcing businesses to open factories where the government wants them to?
Parties do not export business, Business leaders do. The parties make business impossible, so it goes elsewhere. Almost the same thing, but just enough off to miss the mark. The EPA rules, and mountains of government paperwork and oversight that is increasing in America make it impossible to create goods with any competive edge. Where the American worker may produce twice or more the goods per dollar spent, the government wasted many times that forcing you to inventory beans for them to count, and make expensive modifications to reduce already clean air polution.
Meanwhile, China builds dirty coal plants left and right to take advantage of the cheap coal than Americans can’t buy.
