It’s very funny that in rhetoric Trump goes “this trade negotiations are about REINDUSTRIALIZATION FACTORIES ONE BILLION US STEEL MILLS” and then in practice he’s like “uhh can you lower the taxes on Facebook”

My brother in Christ, reindustrialization is based on international capital flows, not dumbass ideas to move down the value chain by turning colleges into vocational schools. You do realize that modern industry is almost always *high* skilled automation?
Read your Michael Pettis, you utter clown.

No reindustrialising? Our academic institutions are a part of the problem, overproducing elites and funnelling them into bullshit unproductive jobs. Half the universities need to close or become vocational colleges. You didn't even mention productivity.
Brexit is in the past. That ship has sailed.

Well, for one, the UK has a highly competitive higher education sector that is closely tied to innovation, and yet the past set of governments don't value academic institutions as value producers.
The other part is leaving the EU has basically damaged the British ability to trade goods...

Trump also told auto CEOS that they should be grateful that he's killing Biden's "electrical vehicle mandate." But Trump's attack on EV incentives threatens a huge numbers of manufacturing jobs, undermining his goal of reindustrialization.

reindustrialization the actual policy issue of should more manufacturing be stateside for multiple reasons (probably yeah) is almost entirely orthogonal from reindustrailization the collection of neuroses that various people have about 'email jobs' being less legitimate or female-coded or some shit

Manufacturing is supposed to underpin virtuous working class lives. Why can't green manufacturing fit that bill? Vance aims to fuse innovation+reindustrialization. Green energy, the manufacturing of future, does that

If Republicans weren't grievance-driven morons I would say that depopulating the countryside was part of their reindustrialization strategy.

The fall of Northvolt, Sweden's symbol of green reindustrialization
The fall of Northvolt, Sweden's symbol of green reindustrialization
On March 12, the electric battery giant shut its doors for good. Nearly 5,000 people employed at the Skelleftea gigafactory lost their jobs. As the US-based company Lyten prepares to restart production, Northvolt's downfall has cast a chill over Sweden's ambitions to reindustrialize around clean technology.

A reminder that 'technical' education in the modern economy is not going to be about reindustrialization as much as about services and management.
Almost 20,000 T-level results were awarded this year, an increase of 65% on last year. Education and early years was the most popular pathway followed by health, then management and adminstration.

So many of these fucking idiots are convinced that they can somehow avoid the geoeconomics and politics of class that come into the question of what reindustrialization would look like in a modern economy, or how to go about doing so.

1/ WaPo reporting highlights how current trade policy is simultaneously pursuing revenue generation, reindustrialization, trade deficit reduction, and an expansive foreign policy agenda. The pursuit of all these goals risks achieving none of them well.

Man it sure is weird that there’s a manufactured economic crisis that will require historic reindustrialization on the cheap sans worker protections while unions are being marginalized and children prepared for labor and the oligarchs who own the president need support for automation technology.

and hey if you're obsessed with manufacturing jobs and reindustrialization and national industrial policy--it turns out, military spending is a great way to do that! certainly far better than fucking tariffs or the jones act or whatever other protectionist self-sabotage

Refusal to address climate change is part of the same thing as ignoring the demise of universities and wanting reindustrialization or remigration - a refusal to acknowledge the times we live in and a desire to return to the past.

Ngl a lot of the reindustrialization people really seem to think that America can shift production from 40% margin tech companies to those that mostly compete with .3% margin Chinese manufacturing companies and somehow become more prosperous for it

If the richest nation on earth simply decides that this is something it can't do, then ofc nothing will be done. Reindustrialization is possible, that is, if you really want it.

Many Americans dislike data centers because they use land, water, and electricity without creating many permanent jobs.
