I don’t believe it because the facts don’t support increased manufacturing level...one has only to look at the trade deficits to know this...although there is plenty of evidence out there for my point of view...and it’s not fake statistics that counts business that has nothing to do with manufacturing in the numbers either.

What if I posted the facts on US Manufacturing output, would that change your mind?

...one has only to look at the trade deficits to know this.

Not at all. The trade deficit is a function of two numbers, imports and exports. First, one could manufacture a whole bunch, and not export it. 2nd, one could manufacture a ton, and export it, but import more. So, the trade deficit in no way negates my statement that the US is the largest manufacturer, and that manufacturing output is growing.

..although there is plenty of evidence out there for my point of view...and it’s not fake statistics that counts business that has nothing to do with manufacturing in the numbers either

Like what?
