I actually agree, we should put up more trade barriers that favor local manufacturing, in the form of a carbon tax. It would naturally make local/distributed manufacturing more cost competitive with foreign. Manufactured goods would get more expensive, but much of that increase would be going to the blue collar set in the US, they’d get a lot more leverage to push for higher wages. And a large portion of the tax should be distributed back to people to make it so it doesn’t end up being regressive.
