This is an interesting article and something that I've been musing about for a few weeks. Is manufacturing completely leaving the United States? I know its easy for non-engineers to point to engineers and say "hey, make something" but there is a little truth to Lacy's statements. I can't speak as to whether the US is falling behind in innovation, but solutions to keeping manufacturing in the US are not simple. To properly address this problem you have to start with education and the incentives with enticing more American's to go to graduate school. Then there's globalization and monetary policy and immigrant visas. I'm sure there are a whole host of issues in between.
