So... Do These Numbers Actually Check Out?

Edit to fix spelling and grammar.
Try doing it on their home turf. Delivery jobs can suck sometimes.

As for the labor market being over-saturated... *Sighs* Let's be realistic: we're never getting those jobs back. At least not in our life times. It will require that pay for general labor in assembly plants and the like become more or less equal throughout the world, and by then I think we'll have figured something else out, like a machine to take the human element out of it.

The only other thing would be if we specialized in the manufacture of high-quality goods. This is already happening - witness the non-sweatshop, all American made clothing of American Apparel. Granted, you'll never see their stuff in Walmart, but just imagine benefit to our economy if more people could afford to buy their products!

Another example: other countries absolutely love to use cotton from the USA over cotton from anywhere else because our standards of quality control are so high. Not only is our cotton better processed, but also cotton bales from other places tend to have things like fast food and candy wrappers mixed in. :p
