?? Reposting with an added lens on automation and capital budgets: This is a bold, data-rich take by Ron Hetrick and it aligns with what many of us in the manufacturing, distribution, and industrial space see on the ground. The labor headwinds in U.S. manufacturing and distribution aren’t just cyclical—they're structural and long-term. ?? That’s why automation is no longer optional—it's a strategic necessity. As domestic labor availability continues to shrink—particularly among prime-age workers—companies optimizing supply chain networks are turning to: -Robotics and automation in manufacturing lines -AS/RS and goods-to-person systems in distribution centers -AI and machine vision for QC and process optimization -Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) for material movement However, a new challenge is emerging. The Trump administration’s tariff strategy has introduced significant uncertainty, contributing to inflationary pressure and sparking concerns about a potential recession. This is critical because in a high-rate, low-confidence economic environment, many companies pull back capital expenditures—which directly threatens the pace of automation investment. Without the labor or the capital, reshoring becomes even more complex and constrained. ?? It’s a double bind: labor is structurally unavailable, and now the financial environment limits the primary solution—automation. That’s why innovative solutions like what LEGACY INVESTING is enabling are so important. We’re helping companies deploy automation infrastructure at significantly lower cost—by bundling it into the facility lease structure, often at rates well below traditional equipment financing. If this approach could help your operation bridge the labor gap, scale with improved margins, and take market share, contact us—we’d be happy to share how it works. Appreciate the original post for surfacing the realities that demand smarter, more resilient industrial strategies. Be sure to read the comments here as well.
I've held off posting about this but I just think it is more important to know the facts than not know them. First, the bold statement. In no way, shape or form can manufacturing ever come back to the US. If you don't get anything else from this, make sure you get that. I started at the Bureau of Labor Statistics on the payroll survey analyzing manufacturing back in 1991. I was there for NAFTA, I watched how the predictions of doom never synced with reality. There weren't droves of prime-age men out of work, they reskilled, upped their education and went into other lines of work. In 1975, manufacturing was 27% of all private jobs, now, it is 9%. During this time, our rapidly shrinking native born prime age male population turned more to the professional world with greater financial returns and less physical demands. As the graph below shows, the unemployment rate for prime age men consistently hovers in record low territory outside of economic shocks. The number of people unemployed in this country whose last job was in manufacturing is at historical lows. The unemployment rate for manufacturing is a shocking 2.9%, well below the national average. If we remove immigrants, the native born prime age labor force has started inverting and aging rapidly. The 16-24 year old labor force is projected to shrink by 2M into 2030 and that was assuming we would continue standard immigration levels. Nearly 2/3rds of our high school grads immediately enroll in college, numerous others pursue non degreed professional careers. It is not 1975 anymore. If you want to know where in the globe the labor force can handle this type of work, we can help you, but finding a sustainable supply here may be impossible now, and that will only get much worse going forward.
