"Our manufacturing, inflation adjusted, is larger than ever."

Regardless of the statistics much of what was previously manufactured in the US is now manufactured in foreign lands. I grew up in Pittsburgh. There is little manufacturing now in that former industrial town. Go in any store and you see little made in USA. Whole industries have been destroyed - clothing, etc -

We are better off as a nation to be manufacturing the goods even at the cost of higher prices.

Regards

Neil
