I have some weak spots around electronics manufacturing in the United States, but other than that, I know we’re making stuff. It’s just we’re making a lot less than we used to. I consider my tweet directionally correct.

This is a contrary set of data. Production is up. Manufacturing employment is down.pic.twitter.com/iYGhgCWpBQ

Lot of issues with that graph, imho: 1. Starts in a recession ends with a boom 2. It’s domestic manufacturing. Things produced domestically have grown in price more than CPI. 3. Much of what we make domestically, we do because of protectionist policies, ie cars.

4. The real growth (with the above caveats) is pretty anemic considering word gdp growth
