Gas Prices Affecting Manufacturing in a Good Way?

As gas prices reach record levels, a recent Wall Street Journal article focused on some manufacturing companies that were bringing jobs back to the US in order to reduce costs.

The report states, "The rising cost of shipping everything from industrial-pump parts to lawn-mower batteries to living-room sofas is forcing some manufacturers to bring production back to North America and freeze plans to send even more work overseas".

If you are considering going back to school for retraining this year, consider vocational training in specialized manufacturing programs.
