They may be able to show some positive GDP with numbers out of Washington. But in a real world practical sense job growth has to be 150,000 per month just to keep even with population growth.

Let me ask you what you think the cumulative job growth is over the last 10 years? Cumulative. 10 years. A negative 203,000 jobs. Throwing in a gain of 2.1 million government jobs is the only way one can show a gain. But considering the population growth, no, even with government jobs counted there was no job gain. And you think going forward will be better?

It's been said recently that well over 50% of jobs lost this past year won't come back. At all. Broken business models. Reduced employment and no wage growth. Many counted as employed, but working either part time or at a lesser paying job (4 out of every 5 jobs lost result in lesser paying job).

It's been said that those who were wrong about how bad things would get are the same people who are saying it will get better than it will. That appears to be the case.
