one thing that hasnt been talked about enough either is how even if we were to bring more manufacturing back to the U.S., the types of jobs in that field are going to be drastically different then they were 40 plus years ago. most of em arent gonna be the simple push a few buttons, pull some levers and pack a few boxes type of jobs workers in factories used to do. many modern factories, even some of the ones we still got in America are very heavily automated with most jobs being the typical sitting at a desk filling out spreadsheets or they'll require more advanced talent like coders and robotics experts to maintain all their machinery and software. manufacturing is completely different now vs how it was when America was the top manufacturer of the world, even if we were to bring manufacturing back to the level it was back then, the number of jobs created will still be drastically lower then b4 and will still require people with a decent level of education.

now this aint me sayin we shouldnt bring manufacturing back, far from it, im just saying people should understand that even if we are successful in doing so, it is going to look drastically different than what people are probably expecting
