If my colleague will yield, in chapter 2, page 73 of the Economic Report of the President--this was prepared by the President's economic advisors--they raise the issue here as if it were a legitimate question. They say: The definition of a manufactured product, however, is not straightforward. When a fast food restaurant sells a hamburger, for example, is it providing a service or is it manufacturing a product? They think that is a legitimate question, that manufacturing a hamburger might actually be a manufacturing job. My colleague from Nevada is absolutely right to raise this point.
