In recent years an important subject of political debate has been the loss of U.S. manufacturing jobs. Manufacturing jobs have long been the highest paying sources of income for many, especially for those who do not have an advanced college degree, a majority of the population. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 71 percent of the population 25 years old and over had less than a bachelor’s degree in 2008. Manufacturing jobs have been and

In preparing MDUSA the editors have done a great deal of work to restructure this title so that it adheres to the new, shorter ASM industry list. The ASM industry list contains 6-digit NAICS industries as well as industries made up of two or more 6-digit NAICS industries.
For any ASM industry that is a combination of 6-digit NAICS industries, a new code is used. The new ASM code is a 5-digit number and a letter. Whenever such a new industry code is presented in this work, a list is provided for the user of the component NAICS industries that are covered by the new single ASM NAICS code. In addition, two new appendices are provided, one that offers a conversion from ASM NAICS codes to 2007 NAICS codes and the other providing a look-up guide in the other direction—2007
NAICS codes to ASM NAICS codes.
Of the 321 manufacturing industries presented in this work, 233 are “straight” 6-digit NAICS industries and 88 are new ASM industries (industries made up of more than one 6-digit NAICS industry).
