90,000 US factories outsourced to third world countries due to globalism and lack of reasonable tariffs for decades.
If every factory employed at least 200 employees on average (janitors, engineers, HR, finance, transportation, inventory, line workers, electricians, etc.), that is MILLIONS of jobs people would have right now.

Years ago I was living in Northern AZ, and someone cut a major line while digging, cutting off internet to much of the state for about 3 days. Couldn't buy gas unless you had cash, cellphones weren't working, etc. It was awesome. People actually came outside, sat in the grass (what there is in AZ), had great conversations. Best 3 days of living in AZ I had. But once the cable was repaired, it was over. everyone back inside, stopped talking to each other, heads down in their phones, it was depressing. I grew up pre-internet, pre-cellphone, and I hate the way things are now.

I lived for 3.5yrs in AZ on $9k-$11k in expenses per year.
That was rent, food, utilities, cellphone, car insurance, gas, car maintenance, etc. I have all my tracked expenses and budget to prove it. That was with rent being $640/month for a single bedroom apartment.
Where I live today, post-Bidenomics, food has gone up (nearly 2x), gas has gone up (~1.5x), rent has gone up to about $1100, but most everything else has remained comparable in terms of expense, slightly higher. So a person could live on closer to $18k where I live now. But wages are far higher too. An entry level job in AZ was minimum wage, $15k/yr, but now you can easily find places offering $15'hr to over $20/hr if you're not lazy and willing to work. So expenses haven't doubled for me, but entry level wages for workers have doubled, tripled or more. I've known of misc jobs that were offering as high as $35/hr starting with no experience (labor jobs, but nothing like concrete nor plumbing, welding, etc.).
House prices, car prices, land price, etc. all Suck! But it's still possible to live. people just expect too much early in their lives and don't know how to be frugal and not splurge on everything. People have become glutenous consumers.
