DESCRIPTION:The U.S. Commerce Department says that “The United States is the 
 world’s leading producer of manufactured goods” and that “Standing 
 alone, the U.S. manufacturing sector would represent the fifth-largest 
 economy in the world—larger than China’s economy as a whole.” 
 Surprised? We were. After all, millions of manufacturing jobs have 
 disappeared over the last 20 years. Back then, one-third of all workers 
 held manufacturing jobs. Today, it’s more like one in 10. Does that mean 
 that nine out of every 10 American workers have better jobs than they did 
 20 years ago? Does it mean that most American workers have cleaner 
 “information age,” safer “postindustrial,” better paying “white 
 collar” jobs than two decades ago? No, it doesn’t! Why it doesn’t is 
 just one of the things up for discussion at every SLP discussion meeting.
