I don't think there are many people arguing that bringing jobs back would be a net positive. It's obvious that the rich are making tons of money off of this situation. I think the people arguing for bringing jobs back is so that quality of life can stop decreasing for the lower class and rural areas of the country that have been massively affected by globalization.
No I didn't, the US taxpayer on aggregate saves more than enough to pay those people to live for the rest of their lives.
>I don't think it's "unfair" to care more about "us" than "them" as long as "they" don't have the same standards we do.
I don't. The US on aggregate gets as much, or more, benefits from off-shoring as the country who takes it on does.
>Improvements abroad and maybe someday improvements here
The sole reason there aren't an equal number of improvements here in the United States is due to regressive thinking that assumes that bringing the jobs back would be a net positive while simultaneously blaming anybody who's been left behind for not working hard enough. Like I said, this isn't zero sum.
