Comment on US manufacturing employment is down, but each state has its own storyparent

Comments

remember manufacturing in the U.S employs 10X more people than tech does.

That doesn’t sound right.

Where are you getting the numbers? Are you going by NAICS codes?

Here - https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/MANEMP for Number of Manufacturing jobs down to 12 million. a Few years ago it was going up before trump came in again.

remember tech sector roughly employs 2 million people thereabouts.
