Well it makes some sense but breaks down on the jobs part.
Here is what I do not understand…. Everyone says bring the jobs back. Bring them back! Like it is no problem to do so… However if there are people who will do the same job for 1/10 of the cost of an American employee then how exactly does that work? If American union jobs benefit the american employee somewhat but a nice percentage of that salary goes to the union which then goes to lobbyists, then how does that work as well?
The crux of it is that “american jobs” carry so much overhead with the salary that the answer is that IT DOESNT WORK.
The big admission here is that a percentage of the American labor force has priced themselves out of jobs. The govt has compounded the problems by awarding corporations for outsourcing as well and all that infrastructure buildout did not happen in a year and you cannot throw a switch and expect it to be reversed in a year… or two…or five. Similarly the effort it will take to return those jobs is indescribeable and the bottom line it that it will hurt the companies it is aimed at which will hurt their bottom line and their stock price which will hurt Wall St which controls the govt…
