I often wonder if it affects people's decisions.. We're not holding either of our parties accountable, and in the end, we're just hurting ourselves, and moreso, our children.
I hear a lot of people complaining that we “don’t need manufacturing jobs here” anymore, we are in a global economy. These same people accuse us of exploiting other countries labor force and natural resources. These same people rarely go out of their way to buy domestically produced goods. We cannot all work in medical or IT. Even UPS customer service is overseas. Half our cars are foreign. Clothing is foreign. Even I have a jap tractor. As long as it is cheaper to manufacture elsewhere it will continue to happen.
I hear there are plenty of unfilled positions in the Drumpf Administration. ;)
