I honestly don't think there is a fix. This is just how things have evolved globally. There is no rest button, no going back, and no "fixing it," because there is nothing to fix. This is just how business is now. Just like there is no "fixing" the porn business, it is what it is now. You adapt or you will die.
It is foolish to think that the USA would remain such an employment word force forever. Like every industry in the world, they change. So did porn and so did how products are manufactured. Just about everything all of us use in our day to day life was made overseas. You can't fix that.
As a company owner, it makes no sense to work Americans if you can set up shop abroad. Foreign workers will work longer, harder, for much less, and you don't have to worry about any of the employment benefits that Americans want, or safety hassles with OSHA breathing down your back. You can run your business how you want. These countries are all seeing a rise in the middle class and they are hungry for all the things they could never have before, but, thanks to American factories, they are getting it.
The bottom line is, the world changed. End of story. Jobs are now going to countries that are best suited for them. If some of those industries end up being better suited in the USA, so be it, but the bulk of them will be abroad where EVERYTHING is cheaper, not just the labor.
Maybe the USA will come up with something amazing, like a new form of energy, but how long will it be before they ship that overseas too? Parts have to be built somewhere and you can count on them going to the place that is the cheapest. And if they don't export those jobs, how many jobs can it really create, and what percentage of Americans even be educated enough to get those jobs? Not many. I hate to say it, but very dark days are ahead for the USA and this whole thing is just getting started. If you think it's bad now, fast forward 10, 20, or 40 years. Technology is only going to eliminate more jobs and devolving nations are going to continue to be the world's factory.
