US manufacturing hit an all time high of 2.9 trillion dollars in 2024, and is up year over year. Yeah totally failing.


According to Google:

"Slower growth: Despite the record output, some analyses reported that the overall growth of U.S. manufacturing output was modest, at just 1% in 2024. This reflected a lag between announced investments and new operational capacity coming online."

So record output, but practically zero growth.
