    See his quote about no environmental delays, we don’t just have that stuff made over there because it’s cheaper. We also do it because of the environmental fallout from having such plants.

    Also no way will we get Americans to do these jobs. Hell Apple plants hsve to have nets to keep employees from killing themselves. Also don’t they have to live at the plant?

      Hey look, environmental and labor rights issues aside, and not discounting that, if we want to make the United States a manufacturing powerhouse again I’m all for it but it requires actual central planning and investment ala Bernie Sanders, and it’s gonna take ten years.

        Central planning is terrible… Bernie isn’t about that, he’s dialed in on next steps

        Decentralized planning is better - don’t control from on high, support it being done as local as possible. Cast a wide net, Foster competition while forcing them to share their answers
