Do we suck at manufacturing or are the unions driving manufacturing out of the country because we can get cheaper labor elsewhere? Did you forget about cap and trade? Don't you think companies are scared to develop manufacturing in the US with things like cap and trade/tax that could come back.

Also the way to create jobs is not thru public funding of unnecessary projects with no long term benefit.
