What about as a percentage of GDP? During our heyday compared to now?

Alsop works to support my argument.

Alsop?

Bottom line is we have traded making things for service jobs.

That's true. Still doesn't answer my question.

If it's true, you've answered your question.

Government spending, consumer spending, and service industry combined now accounts for a large portion of our GDP. Production of goods is now a wedge in the GDP pie chart.
