No worries, as soon as our workforce is willing to work for a small fraction of its present rate, we will be competitive as manufacturers again.
Our current state is in large part the result of millions of decisions made by Americans each time they choose to put a Chinese made good into their cart. We send about 1 Billion dollars PER WORK DAY to China just in the form of trade deficit on consumer goods. US Census Bureau link:

Americans are doing it to themselves through choices to save a few bucks at the store, and by not contacting their legislators and demanding such things as clear bold country of orgin labeling in product catalogues and internet store item pages, that items bought with local, state, or federal tax dollars be of domestic manufacture, or by not contacting American product manufacturers and telling them they have lost or will lose their business as a result of going overseas, etc.
