“Over the next ten years, we’re putting $250 billion to work to help create new manufacturing jobs in America.”

There’s a Powerful New Ad on TV About Work Narrated by Mike Rowe — Who It’s for Might Surprise You a Little

Former “Dirty Jobs” host Mike Rowe narrates a powerful new commercial released Thursday and it contains one powerful message: “Work is a beautiful thing.”

Who’s it for? Walmart.

“At one time I made things and I took pride in the things I made, and my belts whirred, and my engines cranked,” Rowe says in the video, delivering a monologue from the perspective of the factory as related images flash across the screen. “I opened my doors to all and together we filled pallets and trucks. I was mighty. And then one day the gears stopped turning.”

“But I am still here and I believe I will rise again,” he continues. “And we will build things, and build families and build dreams. It’s time to get back to what America does best. Because work is a beautiful thing.”

“It’s time to get back to what America does best. Because work is a beautiful thing.”

The commercial ends with a text overlay saying, “Over the next ten years, we’re putting $250 billion to work to help create new manufacturing jobs in America.”

A Walmart representative confirmed to TheBlaze Saturday afternoon that the retail giant had in fact partnered with Rowe to create the ad.

At the time of publication, the video — called “I Am a Factory” — had attained just over 25,000 views on YouTube.

bringing manufacturing back would fix unemployment problem

esp if 0 tax and unregulated

regualtions are only reason why anyone is poor: since mass produced housing manufactured at home would make everyone so rich without government buggers in the way and lawyers

remember lawyers raise prices for poor and others and produce nothing

remember lawyers are non productive

Lip service.

Can't blame Mike Rowe for continuously getting paid, paid and paid.

0 regulations, while a nice idea, is not truly possible.

As we have a great many people who have lots of money, they can spend more money and do illegal things to make more money... You have to have "some" regulations.

We could certainly do with fewer regulations to be sure.

zero regulations is a pipe dream. Human nature requires some regulations.
