The biggest factor is wages. Plain and simple.
Americans were able to get factory jobs and get paid a decent amount of money. Only problem is a "decent amount" in the USA is a fortune in other countries. The jobs have been basically "outbided". Why pay someone $50,000 a year when someone over here will do it for $5,000?
They ain't coming back. Well, basic economics says that. If some moron forces manufacturing jobs back into the USA there isn't going to be any good because of it.

One day an Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walked into a pub together. They each bought a pint of Guinness. Just as they were about to enjoy their creamy beverage, three flies landed in each of their pints. The Englishman pushed his beer away in disgust. The Scotsman fished the fly out of his beer and continued drinking it, as if nothing had happened. The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!"
