I n popular perception America’s industrial heartland is its Midwest. Just look at where President Joe Biden has travelled for many of his big made-in-America speeches: Ohio thrice, Michigan twice and Wisconsin. (These, helpfully, are also political battleground states.) But look at where the money is flowing, and a different picture emerges. It is the South—a region running from Texas to Virginia—that is fast becoming America’s new industrial heartland (see map).
普遍的看法是美国的工业心脏地带。只要看看乔·拜登(Joe Biden)总统在美国的许多大型演讲中旅行的地方:俄亥俄州三次,密歇根州两次和威斯康星州。(这些有益的是政治战场。)但是看看钱在哪里流动,并出现了不同的情况。它是从德克萨斯州到弗吉尼亚州的南部地区,它正迅速成为美国新的工业心脏地带(请参阅地图)。
