All the while American manufacturing continues to increase its output.

When I buy a GE refrigerator made in Mexico is that counted as "American manufacturing output"?...Just wondering.

OMG LOL
Even funnier is that you probably think your question is serious.

You have it almost correct. When you buy a GE refrigerator made in Mexico, it is counted as North American Union manufacturing output.

It may very well depend upon what "made in Mexico" means, Looey.

A lot of times things "made" in other countries are assembled there with a good content of parts from the US or some other country. Without more specific info (or even with it, most likely) there's no real definitive answer.

Kind of like asking "how high is up". That's probably why you don't get any serious response to you question.
