Since 2001, 12 million manufacturing jobs have been offshored. 55,000 factories closed.

Every manufacturing job probably supports another service job. Although I have never seen a study on the ratio of manufacturing to service jobs supported/created. Nobody cares to study such pedestrian things.

Every manufacturing job also support a couple of supplier jobs, too. A sewing machine factory has to buy nuts and bolts someplace. (And other items)
