China may be losing a larger number of positions but they had more to start with.

I don't take any numbers on face value...but go ahead and show me what you have.

The question, and it was not mine, was “Which country in the world has lost the most manufacturing jobs in the last 10 years?”

China lost a greater percentage of their manufacturing jobs than we did. 15% to our 11%.

The reason we have less people in manufacturing jobs is the same reason we have less farmers. The Industrial Age is ending, just as the Agricultural Age ended before it.

Those numbers are from the Heritage Foundation, by the way. The same organization that produced the article this thread is based on.
