You see how,..what?

We can compete with China in most areas of manufacturing. Automation in the US is exactly as effiecient as it is in all of Asia. It's true,that the amount of true manufacturing positions has decreased due to technology. But there are still a large majority of small businesses that eith can't afford it, or don't actually need it.

What has to happen is that at some point the consumer has to realize that they need to shop somewhere besides Walmart.
