The numbers just don't show that. Look at the BLS numbers yourself instead of relying on mass media to parse it for you. When you look at the numbers going back to 2008, you'll see that the majority of the hiring has been in the part time space and the majority of the unemployment rate coming down has been due to people dropping out of the labor force. Then you look at wages and they are stagnant for the 99%. So wages are stagnant and the good jobs are fewer. That's what the numbers tell us.

Look, MM, this is getting really old. I keep postisng articles that dispute your position......you go away for a while then come back and make the same silly claim. I am done. Its time to move on.

And here's another alarming trend. Companies are cutting back on benefits due to Obamacare. They just can't afford it and they are taking action. Again, another massive destruction of the middle class and poor's standard of living.
