I look at the rust belt and all those "displaced" workers and think they used to make good auto parts now they are idle and we get Chinese junk.
I live in Ohio and that’s about the size of it. I sometimes wonder though. If there were hundreds of new manufacturing plants tomorrow, is the workforce really there for it? The small business owners I know struggle to find or keep people. Will the younger ones show up five days a week, shift work, consistently?
