What if "Made in America" became important for national security. Could a boycott of Chinese products bring manufacturing, along with good paying jobs, back to the USA?

If we could get the government officials to even consider that American jobs were important then it might work. How do we change the Socialists in the government?

Personally, I think it's critical that China be forced to alter its fiscal policies (esp. yuan currency appreciation) or otherwise become subject to protectionist measures. Unfortunately, I see minimal impetus in that direction so far as American policymakers are concerned...
