A survey released Friday by the state Department of Business and Economic Development found that 60.7 percent of manufacturers expect their sales to increase in the next 12 months. Fewer are planning on hiring, though, likely thanks to productivity increases. Only 42.9 percent plan to boost employment in the same period.
The state released the survey Friday to coincide with National Manufacturing Day and the start of a month named Maryland Manufacturing Month by Gov. Martin O'Malley. It also comes as international competition and new technologies rapidly change the domestic manufacturing industry.

Well, you shipped all our manufacturing jobs overseas, so there was no real reason to educate the children in that. Then, the tech jobs were outsourced overseas, so there was no real need to educate them in that. Now, we have a bunch of uneducated idiots with nothing to do except sell Chinese crap, and fast food.
