Everyone wants those jobs, it's just that only delevoped countries can have them in numbers. What I whine about is wanting the low-skill jobs back from the developing countries.

Again with the backwards reasoning. The jobs weren't sent overseas because they were low-pay, the jobs became low-pay because they could be sent overseas. We know this because there was a time when they couldn't be and weren't. It's a stark case-study in labor power vs trickle-down: sacrifice the former and the latter will ensure that your slice shrinks faster than the pie grows.
