18. after a manufacturing plant has been closed a few years, it's really hard and expen$ive
to get it running again. And that's IF tax loopholes rewarding outsourcing are closed, manyfacturers supported by tariffs and the workforce available and trained. We are really screwed. By foreign competitors who didn't like our pre-eminence in manufacturing. And by greedy Americans who thought making a buck now is always superior to supporting an economy for the future.
