text: the only way to keep these jobs in America is to lower the prices, which requires innovation in the sats, along with innovation in production. 
  
  Look at SpaceX. They have made space cheap which is what is causing this sat boom. They have restored numerous jobs to America, that companies like L-Mart purposely screwed up on (for profits). 
  Do note that in the 60s and 70s, that America OWNED space launch and sats, esp for commercial sats. If L-Mart will automate the day lights out of this, it will actually bring back MORE jobs than if they choose to not automate.
