- DeadJim 14y agoGDP from the manufacturing sector has increased fourfold since 1950. All the while, jobs have decreased eightfold. -Not exact figures.
- flyinRyan 14y agoSo what are you saying then? That the US is "top" in growth of GDP from the manufacturing sector? Because I suspect that's not true either.
- matwood 14y agoI'm not sure if top in growth, but the US manufacturing sector is at the forefront of GDP growth. http://seekingalpha.com/article/602691-u-s-manufacturing-leads-current-economic-growth-as-it-has-for-15-years http://seekingalpha.com/article/602691-u-s-manufacturing-lea...

But not even close on an absolute basis - the US makes more than twice as much as Germany. http://www.ourfuture.org/blog-entry/2009104319/g20-manufacturing-output-capita http://www.ourfuture.org/blog-entry/2009104319/g20-manufactu... I couldn't find more recent numbers.
