Maybe saying "never" is being too negative.
But honestly i don't see where the jobs are going to come from that quickly. Small gain 4Q 2011?? Lets face it, this country will never be what it was 30 years ago when it comes to jobs. The Gap between the rich and poor is huge.
Really the amazing thing was that there was ever a brief period of toleration of working class well being.
I agree.
Though janitors don't deserve $60k a year anymore than a Wall Street CEO deserves $60M.
(My father used to do income tax preparation years ago, one customer was a veteran union member who worked as a janitor at an automotive factory, and his income was just over $60k. That's ridiculous money for a mop-jockey.)
Hum.. maybe he did more then just clean the crappers and mop the floors? Theres different types of clean up work that can be performed in a place like that I'm sure.
Unless we plan on asking china and others to give our jobs back I don't see this country getting out of this hole. The UMP rate will stay a steady 8-9% in the next few years.
I don't think a lot of people realize the importance of the blue Collar/ lower educated worker in this country. If you can put them to work with a
decent wage, they in - return will spend and gather credit. That keeps towns, states, and our economy going.
