No. My post says Eric is wrong about manufacturing. I also posted this chart....on MANUFACTURING:
That chart(your chart) is merely spending in the form of loans and tax incentives to private sector and public sector spending. It is a false positive given that:
The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) was signed into law by the President on August 16, 2022. The IRA provides billions of dollars in incentives, grants and loans to support new infrastructure investments in the areas of clean energy, transportation and the environment. In many instances, states and territories are eligible to apply for infrastructure programs directly or can partner with local governments and the private sector to maximize benefits for their communities.
Then there is the CHIPS act .... for semiconductor gigs. There has been no increase in manufacturing...nothing. And what were you saying? .... because if you agree with Eric...you are also wrong :)
