'''South Carolina''' was the eighth state to enter into the [[Union]]. The capital city is [[Columbia (city)|Columbia]].
South Carolina is a key primary state in the [[2008 Presidential Election]]. It relies heavily on the textile industry and trade with foreign countries, especially [[trade with Germany]].
In [[December]] 2001, South Carolina had 299,100 manufacturing jobs. This fell by over 15% to 253,000 manufacturing jobs in December 2006. The state also has fewer than 38,000 textile manufacturing jobs left, while ten years ago it had 80,000 textile jobs.
While non-farm employment overall has increased, the manufacturing jobs were much higher-paying than the service-related jobs. The average weekly wage for non-supervisory workers in January 2007 were:<ref>Source: U.S. Department of Labor</ref>
*$518 in textile mills
*$404 in apparel facilities
*$250 in the leisure/hospitality sector.
