Let's approach it from the other direction: why should we? What are we getting by trying to "bring it back"?

High paying factory jobs that will allow an individual to purchase a home and start a family!

Factory jobs aren’t high paying and even if you brought all manufacturing home it would barely impact manufacturing employment.

Automation is what took the jobs away.

To fix housing all you need to do is build more homes. America has plenty of land for that.
