True, but if it brings manufacturing back here by making it more cost-effective, those jobs will be created elsewhere, and they will be more specialized and higher paying like trucking, logistics, supplies, etc.

If 10 people and a bunch of machines can do the work here instead of 100 people in China, it's still a net gain for US employment...
