The manufacturing jobs left as far back as the 50’s. Among the Pacific Rim nations, Taiwan was probably the first one to benefit from the “cheap” overseas labor; until the threat of Red China invading Taiwan scared the crap out of the many companies that set shops there and they ended up shifting it to Singapore. The 1st PM of Singapore, the late Lee Kuan Yew, himself acknowledged this event provided the impetus to propel to Singapore into an economic powerhouse. The jobs that went overseas themselves are rotated from one country to the next. In the 80s a lot of the clothings (textile) were made in Hong Kong, then for awhile it’s India and Bangladesh, and then China, etc… Nowadays, it’s more likely to be made in vietnam. So, manufacturing jobs chasing cheap overseas labor is not a new phenomenal like the right-wingers and their sheeple like to believe.

The most ironic thing is that the one candidate who would understand that these jobs are not coming back, it would be Trump. And, yet, he’s making all these rhetoric and pretends that it can be done is deplorable. Someone ought to ask Trump where the tie he’s wearing on his neck is made.
