James S. Heintz comments in story about growth in the manufacturing section of the Attleboro area

James S. Heintz, economics, comments in a story about growth in the manufacturing section in the Attleboro area. He says Massachusetts has always played a major role in manufacturing items such as machine parts, electronics, medical devices and other technologically sophisticated products. He also says it’s difficult to attribute any increase in manufacturing jobs to the goal and rhetoric of the Trump administration. (Sun Chronicle, 1/19/18)
