It was one of President-elect Donald Trump's main campaign promises: to bring back manufacturing jobs that American firms have outsourced abroad. Yet several major US companies, such as Reebok, have already started investing in production sites at home. Many had been producing in Asia - where workers' wages are lower - but have found new ways to cut costs, mainly thanks to new technology. This report takes a closer look.
A programme prepared by Patrick Lovett and Elom Marcel Toble.

We have plenty of room for more factories.
psermonte
Especially in the empty shells of the old factories.
Yes pay American labor $10 per hour, no accrued holidays, no sick leaves, no maternity leave!
We know all of this already happening in American corporate such as Google, Facebook and Amazon and many more.
Slavery work for the rich corporate which offices are established in tax free heaven countries.
The great America is back LOL
nobody takes care of us but Yahweh, despite the plans of Mice and Men...
@James Madison "Employee pay is based upon the industry & the job market" $9 per hour, the great America!
The world is moving toward automated factories. In an earlier era, our farms became automated. We are now in a second phase of that process. And the impact on countries like China is going to be considerable. Nations are going to have to produce superior products to sell into the US market. And China does not produce superior anything.
I don't mind paying extra for as long as it is made in USA rather than china
AGREE!!!!!!!!
Lumber prices went up 300% within 1 year and that's the beginning.
@@TheRichLA Lumbar prices have nothing to do with China. The lumbar issue is local, lumbar jobs don't pay much so taking the government money was much more attractive during covid.
MADE IN USA!!!! MADE IN AMERICA!!! Finally!
More war manufacturing 100% made in usa.
mwbahahaaaaaa
Yep.
Made in America by machines- we need to create more jobs for the people so they could earn and support their family.
@hector nadal fxxk you iam chinese
I may not support Trump but I like him bringing back jobs here bring them back
Freeman doesn't know his butt from a hole in the ground. His predictions have been proven so wrong.
It’s two years later and it turns out Freeman is about 90 Percent wrong.
with ten percent to go...
He is 100% right with the inequality in this country. He's also right with building the wall its irrevelant to our economy. Every Economy is determine by consumerism. No customers no business. He's wrong with unemployment where are these jobs that don't Trump created where are they at?
Wow, this Freeman guy either lied about knowing economics, is a total China fan, or both. He could not have been more wrong on Trump pushing back on China. He spent most of the interview acting like a paid Chinese endorser by warning Trump of China's economic strength and capability to bring America to its knees if Trump dared to take economic action against it. Luckily, the President didn't take this guy's advice and the results are in, Ronald Freeman is the one who should be taking economic advice from the President. President Trumps economic results have completely shut this guy down. I wouldn't take Ronald Freeman's advice or assessments on economics ever, and I hope the Atlantic Council board he sits on canned him for analytical incompetence by letting personal grievances drive his analytical assessments. Freeman is literally the worst type of analyst to have. Once it is discovered an analyst consciously incorporates their personal biases into their analytical judgement, then their assessments are useless in any serious context, which is what the Atlantic Council would like to be taken as I am sure.
Frequency Harmonic - exactly. The guy obviously is afflicted with TDS.
Trump knew that China has a lot more to lose in a trade war than America..China is hugely dependent on the US buying their Chinese junk from them. I’ve seen certain things (like steel products) go up a bit in the process, but our economy is so strong that it’s a drop in the bucket compared to all the new work being created. We can do this for a long time..let’s see how China fares.
@@mrbigdaddyjoe4889 He is wrong about there being no growth in compensation. It's just that we have received our income increase in the form of increasingly costly medical care.
I remember when almost everything was made in the USA, hopefully we can get back to that again.
if we don't, goodbye America, we will be a target for all the globalists who want to dine on our bones, marrow soup...
Awesome! I am willing to pay more for USA products!
Liem Bui
I’m willing to let the banks finance me the cost difference .
@@darthdaddy6983 Thats what I am talking about!
You don't need to pay more, Innovation and Technology can bring the cost down. It can replace the cheap labor, but America needs talents, hire them from across the world to make America great again. Stop China and Chinese to enter USA and steal its technology because they will use the technology to detroy the world.
VOTE this NOV ...DONT let Democrats Kick trump out.. That would KILL Americas unprecedented come back!!!
You guys realize that most of these jobs are being automated and that companies don't have an allegiance to any country
Remember to give credit to Trump who was saving the economy back in 2008. lol
I'm a Filipino but I really missed made in USA products because you are sure that it's safe and durable.
I will never knowingly buy Chinese anything again.... Can't wait to see "Made in America" again.
popeye003
That's Right.
As we all know everything in Walmart & every other department store is made in China.
Everyone wants everything to be made in America. But it's going to take time and it's going to be expensive. But it will CERTAINLY MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN
You liberals just don't get it!! Years ago I automated a company, We didn't lose any employees. We just shifted people from production to Quality Control. If a company doesn't have a robust Quality Control. Any company that doesn't have a Quality Control department is living in the dark ages. We hired more people, doubled our work space, shifted people to QA, Improved our product control all within 6 months!!!. With automation, one person did the work of 6. Oh yes,,,,Our President won again!!
Spring a ding. You better learn to play Chess before you go saying who winning this economic war. Also you might want to update yourself on the world economy. The US is going up and the rest of the world is going down. Thats not Bias that is just the facts.
Robert Strack I like everything you said it makes total sense. Sadly this hasn’t been my experience I work for a company that about two years ago fired all their QC people about 80 people. I was going to be one of those people I was one of the lucky ones that had machining experience. Now all of us have to run our machines and do QC on all our parts and it’s so stressful because we are doing so much its almost impossible to keep up with the machines and everything they need and preform the quality control all at the same time. The turn over rate is insane!! Nobody makes it. Me and two other guys are the only ones that have made it five years. Everyone else lasts about a month and then they quit or get fired for bad parts.
You are getting to where our future should be. Less hours worked, but working to produce better quality, durability and beauty. This is the future.
I love the quality of American made goods,hope to see it in Canadian markets soon.i have not bought any Chinese made goods in over a month.🇺🇸💪🇨🇦👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
When Vietnamese labour is too expensive for you.. lol
A guy from London is talking about the U.S.. the U.S. is a bigger country than England and our unemployment rate is lower than England’s. And he’s saying that we don’t have jobs here because of the machines. 4% beats England’s 5.2%.
At last the American companies are waking up to support their people and country. American made is known for their durability unlike China which is known to last for a week. Go America!
buying American we take care of our families.
Spring4030 Zxqa6519 hopefully more rail metro networks
Freeman voted Hillary
no jobs=no consumption
You see the guy ? The owner of factory? He is iranian!
For those who criticizes iranians .. shame on u
Its not Iranians that are criticised, it is the Iranian Mullahs and Ayatollas that fund Terrorist groups that are despised.
I remember when I was younger, anything that had, made in USA on it, you knew was quality.
I’m still upset with the companies that left America in the first place , coming back is a good start but the CEO’s deserve a beating in the town square.
I should add 90 percent wrong on the controversial issues.
Robots equal big Profits to the CEO's bottom line ..but remember robots dont buy goods !
That is facttts
And robots don't have union
I am so happy to pay more for US product than cheap stuff from China which does not last even the first day
But most people aren't.
TRUMP EFFECT
Aneesh Prasobhan This was long before Trump.... You think this business came back on November 8th? They just gave better technology and local raw materials as a reason they came back......
Trump hasn't done anything.
+Joseph Dubeau
Why do liberals lie so much?
+some body
Maybe not November 8th, but soon after Trump got elected.
Trump has been campaigning for "Made in USA" for over a year before he got elected. He made it a major issue in people's minds. That made some patriotic overseas manufacturers think about what they were doing. That's the "Trump Effect". Trump threatened a trade war and tariffs against our trading partners. You don't want to be an overseas manufacturer when the tariffs take effect. So American companies started coming back anticipating the tariffs and trade war. THAT is the "Trump Effect".
Obama had already given up, telling us those jobs were never coming back. Actually, I don't think Obama gave up. He never really tried to bring the jobs back. More taxes and regulations wasn't going to bring manufacturers to the US. I think he was secretly happy about it. I think that was his plan all along. He wanted to spread our wealth to the rest of the world.
@@RedRider1600 You're delusional bro. They're coming back as people in China and Mexico are fighting back and demanding higher wages. You think they'd come back if their wages stayed low? Lmao they're a business not a charity. That's the free market. They're not going to lose millions because of some stupid "trump effect".
Let Mr. Freeman tell that to all the people across America who have lost their jobs due to the protectionist policies of the Chinese government, not to mention a system that largely depends on subsidies to prop up most industries to the detriment of American industry. The protectionist policies that the U.S. employs pale in comparison to China. Who is he trying to kid ? The average American knows this. And the interviewer lets him put them at the same level. So if a company returns to the U.S. and develops production techniques that allow two workers to replace four, that's two more jobs that employ Americans. And the technology that is developing here will possibly stay here because anything that you take to China in that area, they will steal. What Mr. Freeman is suggesting is for Americans to stand idlly by just watching the decline of our cities and industries and our southern border being overrun and do nothing for the people who this hurts. You want to give people at the bottom help ? A job is the help they want. Not income redistribution. There will always be people at the top in a capitalist system. If you make it intolerable for them they will pick up and move to another country. Then you lose the tax dollars they provide and the jobs they produce.
At least robot unemployment is down!
The whole plant is automated!
Trump he's normally making America great but it's making America prosperous we're so that at any time I believe in our history if you want to see this trend continue my friends vote Trump 20/20
Richard Curren is really lost. Get a brain! Nationalists are for USA and Globalists are against USA and are for war and corruption and reducing freedoms and increasing taxes and control of the masses. Trump is a Nationalist and Bush and Obama and Clinton are Globalists. Talk about a brainwashed fool...Richard Curren is clueless.
President Trump's making a difference that's whot counts More and more companies will return to the USA no matter how you spin it jobs are coming back president trump 2020
TRUMP 2020
I love buying things that are made in USA, it has a good quality and you can use it for a long long time...
I need 2 computer chairs. Made in America chairing. In Union, Tennessee.
Americans want American made products and services and jobs
Well u will get robot made products but unfortunately robots have ur jobs but the 1% gets richer n pay less tax its a win win
99% of American consumers couldn't care less where something was made. we've literally shopped out way straight to the unemployment line.
chieftp
You can thank Clinton for that thanks both NAFTA and making China the preferred trading partner.
Wow-this guy has given up and really missed out on real life when he was reading his books-
That IS what he is talking about. That's what BREXIT was about. Continued globalism is driving the income inequality. SOME globalism is necessary, but to much just enriches a global elite at the cost of the middle class.
too late, we have been there for years (global elite)
Globalism is worse than the worst dictatorship until current times cuz it will bring the whole world down to its knees before one unforgiving imperial regime.
Where are the robot CEO. Think how many money they could save.
two years down the road.. much of what is discussed is no longer valid
The facts say otherwise, remember Carrier
How does automation allow the company to remain competitive? If the government offers Grant's to produce through automation reshoring is a logical option.
Yes all computer and A.I. .look very few employees . Cutting cost more automated.
Any country can inspire to make their country to be great and prosperous and to be protect their national interest is just right simple as that
Treasury bonds are what we need to trade before we trade if we in the UK need to trade.😀
How much does the sum of the revenues of those companies which moved back their production to USA fill out percentage wise of the whole US production revenue?
Mr Trump is bringing back sanity & common sense to America. Amazing how “non-politicians” like himself & Mr Regan, the prior actor, are felt as among the best presidents, in taking care of their country.
Train for Robotics jobs and repair ect they still need to ship and maintain and monitor
Why can't robots fix robots?
The chair company moved 1 of their factories back to USA but now brands themselves as made in America 🤨
wow he ran out of places on Earth where he could find inexpensive labour .....
that's a typical American CEO right there
Amazon Jungle😄
I luv your US comedy, and coming from a senior citizen, even better !
Robotics assembly to compete China's lower manpower costs.
Henry Ford started this robotics thing in his first assembly line, didn't hurt the economy, just gave more people some very nice cars.
I would like to see a total boycott of all imports. Because I know that we can build anything and everything ourselves. We need the jobs and the money here.
What will you say now Ronald?
it shouldn't be protectionist it should be competitive, if it can be more efficient more productive and produce more at a lower cost it can compete, if it builds bigger factories to reduce costs, instead reshoring build supply chains with China. Tariffs can finance subsidies.
I bought shoes made in china ! When the rain comes my shoes said goodbye ! I hate to see me go but have a new one! He! He!
But for how long ? Three or five years? I see strike asking for more pay,shorter work days or shorter hours!
Income inequality is BS, prosperity, profits, and self employment for bottom to mid wage earners, is what we need.
Where is that brand made is USA this is what some of Americans are looking
for ,let us revive the 50 yrs ago products ,there is sense of quality that
america's best will live again for glory.
Sadly I have bought American made garden tools that fell apart after just a little use. Just for the lack of a proper pin or screw or bolt the handle or the working end falls off the haft. In one case I gave up trying to fix the tool; in the other I managed to fix it after a fit of cursing and spitting and lamenting what has become of the US that we cannot properly make a rake or a spade that our ancestors could make 300 years ago.
I shall form the robot union organization to ensure they have equal pay rates as their human counterparts
Right On ReBok
Obama did not “resuscitate” the economy. If you look at quarterly GDP, median income, wages, and job growth for his 8 years in office what you see is an economy that was erratic, inconsistent and hollow. Quantitative easing and neo-socialism are not free market economic policies. In short, Obama's policies kept us in a depression for 8 years.
@James Madison you know that republicans have a short memory, why else would they keep doing the same crap, that never work out.
Right On Now we know where to sit
Wel even if that is true would you rather have companies moving back and keeping jobs and doing this or doing this and keep exporting are jobs Ron where your pay check come from
Robots ????
The price of everything will go up for their products.. In the foreign country they paid employees 14$ and in america they'll have to pay MOST employees 200 per shift..
Troll Account they aren't even hiring people to do these jobs for the most part it's all run by machines.
Torchman X yeah but still I know of a few places that employees illegals and pays them dirt cheap and they're for trump that don't realize if they hire legals than they'll be paying them more than what they earn
YAH MAN WELCOME HOME AND MAKE AMERICAN EXTRAORDIANRY....
Tax increases cause jobs to leave--tax cuts have the opposite affect.
Freeman is absolutely right again. We’re not a manufacturing based economy anymore, we have a consumerist based economy,
Manufacturing will be all local once 3D printing becomes mainstream anyway.
Nonsense economist! Best economy in a very long time. Trump set the tone and people and companies are listening!
Time for all American companies to return to the United States of America and produce products there.
People need to make ,maintain ,and sell machines!
I believe the more us companies that come back home to produce will create more jobs yes but yes there will be more robots in other means of reducing labor force but as long as we are self-sustained that's going to be the number one key in the world
Love it
2019: The middle class and lower income earners have grown faster than CEO and white collar pay. More companies have returned to the U.S. and increase of employment rates have out paced Obama's. Icing on the cake, they are full time, not pat time jobs.
Long waiting, made in America. Robot replacing human have to make some balance.
Are those robut made in America?
Within the next 20 years there will be labour cost equalisation and a unit of labour in Vietnam will cost the same as in the united States. Mainly because of technology.
Make it where you sell!!
it is 3 years old news and still same
Its high time all Corporates should be little liberal in minting money by making their manufacturing units automated only where its required utmost.
That way Corporates will employ more people and more people will be employed.
Just rethink Corporates.
this is one big lie
US worker wages have been stagnate vs inflation since early 70's because % of US workforce in manufacturing dropped from over 20% in early 70's to a low of 8% in 2016. China has seen rising wages(slowly) as their % of workforce in manufacturing climbed to almost 15%.
Thank God! Welcome back. US made are safe and durable. It helps your economy, employment, fund your military, hospitals, educational institutions, etc.... I hope Americans will not give their manufacturing again.
Nice machines.
Great
Same kind of products made in this country( USA ) will not be any more durable because they are the same , made by the specifications of the American companies.
Wilson Luy Tan , who said so.???
Trump is a business man... he is finding ways to help America great again...so only best to say that he shud the remain as America's president for as long as he is able...its a long road to return...so he needs more time in office...
Hes also a bankrupt business man 7 times to be exact lets hope hes a bit better at doing business now
I like it, I love it,,,,, built America strong!!
This is GREAT news!!!!
In the end, it is a financial decision. Great job!
What happens to people when robots replace them?
Thank God! I'm a Filipino but so glad made in America is back. It's because of durability and not harmful to people. China's products are trashy.
Great support for American made. Buy Buy Made in USA!!!!!!!!!
About time
We do not want cheap goods in exchange of our security and freedom.
companies using robots need to pay deductions per robot to offset the loss of jobs. good luck...
It should be that way in the first place....
BALANCED ECONOMY WE MAKE EVERY THING .Then it doesnt matter , it well be balanced ,
The willingness to do self improvement is what determines your way of life. Dont wait move.
LOVE TO SEE AND BUY MADE IN USA AGAIN,,,
What a joke...people act plenty of good jobs and housing go around for everybody...plenty crappy poverty jobs for some.
Made in America is back. Surely more durable and with great quality.. From Philippines ...God help America...
I look forward to the day when all product will be made in America. There is nothing wrong with protectionizing it is an inherent right of any country to protect their economy there is no question about it.
