      Re-industrialization is never going to happen in America because that means higher wages, more labor movements, more strikes, which means very bad for the banking class (who benefit off Americans being consumers rather than workers) and the capitalists (who want to depress wages and maximize profit).

      They spent the last 50 years de-industrializing America just to get to this point where they are virtually untouchable, there is no way they’re gonna want to go back to a more precarious time (for a capitalist).

        I do think they are going to spend a bunch of money pursuing robotics, only to realize too late that you will still always need at least one person per machine.
