Bringing back exported jobs is a short-term solution. It might solve the problem for a few years, but the fundamental problem is that most of the jobs that have left the Western sphere are low-skill jobs that are easy to automate. Moving these jobs back into the Western sphere will massively increase the financial motivation of companies to automate away these jobs, and in a few years we will be back to where we started. No matter which way you slice it, there are just not going to be enough jobs for everyone in the future, and society needs to adapt to that.
