Quote:The question is, are US consumers willing to pay more for things in order to protect other people's jobs in the United States?

 

It's really that simple.  The reason jobs go overseas is because it costs less to produce things in certain other countries.   So bringing those jobs back means we will pay more for certain things.   
Everyone has a breaking point. I am fine with paying more if it means jobs coming back. The problem I have is maybe the factories come back but will the jobs? Most of those jobs that were lost, I'd wager are either currently or one their way to being automated.
