Will Fracking and Robots enable America to be the World's Top Quality Low Price MANUFACTURER?

Sure, China's low wages have shifted the focus of global manufacturing to Southern China. However, the rise of cheaper and more efficient robots PLUS very low-cost electricity thanks to fracking/oil shale extraction might make the US the TOP MANUFACTURER in the world again. Think this is a pipe dream? See: http://www.ereviewguide.com/news/201...cs-to-the-usa/ There are already current trends and robotics advances plus cheap electricity might turn this trickle into a mighty RIVER.

Do you see America reclaiming its manufacturing crown within 20 to 50 years?
