What will it take for manufacturing jobs to come back to America? Many solutions are on the table. Cut the red tape, tone down the EPA/OSHA paperwork, provide more incentives to build factories here, more right-to-work laws, maybe some protectionism, etc.

Equalization of the cost of labor, which is mainly to say that, as long "China's" standard of living and cost of labor is what it is, the situation can only be managed, not improved much.

When we set up our last shop in Vietnam the reason was purely COST. If you examined the complexity, regulatory, logistical or otherwise of getting it done? Far more work (and risk) to do it in Vietnam than to add to our existing facilities.
