Reshoring
The latest podcast from the Collectible Auto website includes an interview with Harry Moser. He's an industrial engineer who is running an initiative to help companies bring back American jobs.
His website is
Reshore Now. He's
talking to companies, not to the general public, and offers 'tools' and services to determine whether reshoring is worthwhile.
In the interview he hit all the important points, including the fact that the 2020 holocaust exposed the utter failure of JIT. When one point on the supply chain is locked down, the chain stops, and it's hard to get it restarted. Moser also emphasizes the importance of switching from college to trade schools, and the MOST IMPORTANT POINT OF ALL: SKILLS.
I'm rooting for him! Seems thoroughly practical and engineerish, not idealistic or ideological.
