That won't make up the difference between cheap Asian labor with shitty benefits and expensive American labor with good benefits. It won't get rid of expensive American regulations on literally everything that doesn't happen in Asia.

I'm all for more manufacturing here, but it will come with costs that people will bitch and moan about paying. It's like people who bitch about no legroom on airplanes when they shop for the cheapest ticket possible.
