That manufacturing is going to be in some developing nation. Would you rather that be China or Honduras, Mexico, etc.?

Easy. Put it in our back yard.

"That" is a pretty generic term.

But manufacturing is only offshored to the extent that it is because of government artificially penalizing the cost of domestic manufacturing/subsidizing offshore manufacturing.

Which is fricking insane economic policy.
