That’s why manufacturing isn’t coming back. The people working in factories all over Asia are working for 25% of what Canadians, Europeans and Americans are working for. If manufacturing came home, the price of everything would go up 75% and the manufacturers couldn’t meet the EPA’s regulations….and that speaks nothing to the cost of building and tooling American manufacturing centers….
Example, cars built in Canada and the US. Our cars compete with the best and the workers don’t make minimum wage. There are a lot of companies that still manufacture in Canada and the US and I will buy that for a few more dollars over something made in China any day.

But there are no cars made in Canada and the United States. They’re simply assembled here and there….🤷‍♂️

Years ago Volvo sent cars in pieces to Halifax to be assembled. They were the best Volvo’s , Volvo ever built. Cars didn’t break. I know an old friend that is into everything, pharmaceutical companies, military weapons, and all kinds of other things, she, yes she, and a very pretty she, told me that Volvo’s now are a very social vehicle. I said What, she said you see everyone that owns a Volvo at the dealership. Haha

What's stuck in my craw right now is how the media is trying to start a Poop Show about the nomination of the Supreme Court appointee, really handle all the crap behind closed doors. And vote. I have had very interesting conversations with women of color and feel a women of color could do just as good of a job as a light skinned person, considering the qualifications of each person, I could give a poop less what color or gender they are. But that's in my simple mind. Rights, right and wrong is wrong. The politicians and the media are clouding these two facts, just to make news.

The news wants people to be against each other. It makes more news. If you are qualified, it doesn’t matter if you’re an alien, or a Bigfoot. Well maybe not an alien.
But I get you and agree.
