Mike - Read "In Praise of Hard Industries: Why Manufacturing, Not the Information Economy, Is the Key to Future Prosperity." By Eamonn Fingleton

This will relate back to that massive trade deficit figure you quoted and another reason that I have been telling people America is in a heap of trouble.

As a nation with only 20% manufacturing, Japan, China, Taiwan and others will kick our ass. Blame the trade unions, organized labor, Democrats, Big Business, Environmentalists... - along with Americans wanting just too big a standard of living - yes we will pay the price folks.

Time our leaders wake up before it is too late.

Read and learn folks!
