Want to know how we bring these jobs back to the US? American corporations outsourcing jobs to overseas should be paying their employees a fair wage instead of exploiting cheap labor markets. I don't want to buy products manufactured overseas in shitty conditions, the people in charge of Nike have way too much money sitting in their pockets to have a bunch of little kids in shitty conditions sewing shoes. Its time for top tier labor sectors to take a pay cut.
There's a problem when people in charge have everything while their employees are struggling just to feed their children.

You can't create jobs in an industry that's dying in our country.
If employers decide to shut down their plants & overshore,
there's really no law against that.
It's not just about the companies wanting to make more $$$.
Buyers (retail or wholesale customers) always want their stuff cheap.
You don't have to look past Zilvia to see that, with ppl opting for low cost knock-offs and/or poor quality goods.
Meanwhile, your competitors are going to have that price advantage you don't have, if you don't adapt.
It's not just manufacturing jobs that are being outsourced either.
Lots of tech, admin, and arts jobs are also being moved.
I've even heard of architectural firms outsourcing their designers.
There really nothing our government can do about this.
The best solution would be to prepare our workers for industries that are more in demand and less likely to be outsourced in the near future.
