We will feel the rush, then hear the swoosh when they all show up and say
Pay Up!
Thats pretty soon i have a feeling.

The sheep in this country created that by demanding the lowest prices. Think about that next time you're standing in line at Walmart.
Admittedly, that's over-simplified, but it's part of the conundrum. We also want the highest wages, which doesn't help in competing with outsourced manufacturing. Not to mention that a good number of Americans are employed in ancillary businesses.
Actually, if you look we still make some stuff. It adds time to the shopping trip, but read the labels. I was surprised by how many name-brand products were imported, and how many generic or store-labeled products were domestic.

Skid Lid?
Did you check out Skid Lid?
I have one, not sure if it's made in America or not though.
It's supposed to be, or at least it was touted to be when I bought it a few years ago, the smallest DOT approved helmet on the market.
I think I paid $35.00 for mine!
