Manufacturing in China is growing at a faster rate than manufacturing in the US, but manufacturing in the US is growing and has been nearly continuously since the industrial revolution (not quite continuously because of things like the great depression, and shorter pullbacks during some recessions).

Manufacturing employment is decreasing in the US, and has been for decades, but that's more about higher productivity than competition from China or elsewhere.

You might be surprised but manufacturing employment has also been going down in China in recent years. Their productivity is increasing as well.
