Rustbelt was a name that USED to apply to the aging rusting cities of the
Midwest.  But with the US economy going so well, you would be hard pressed to
find any "rust".

I thought the 'rustbelt' just implied that there was a lot of heavy
manufacturing going on.

And I thought it reffered to the parts of MI, OH, PA (and others?) that
had thriving steel industries that dried up - and are now just producing rust.
