For everyone optimistic about job creation...
where will these jobs be coming from? What sectors? What skills will be in demand?

Not being a pessimest, here, just trying to get ahead of the curve for once.

2. The only way jobs are going to be created will be the same way they
have have been created in the past, some new technology that everybody needs will require lots of workers.

4. unless we start making stuff here in the states again
Edited on Mon Nov-02-09 07:13 PM by endless october
any stimulus is going to have temporary benefits only.

people without jobs don't buy shit. people not buying shit means your economy sucks. people buying imported shit at walmart isn't going to fix anything.

i find it truly sad that no matter how much you pay for a shirt, it's still made in Bangladesh. i have nothing against the Bangladesh textile industry, but there used to be a US industry as well. until we decided that Americans wanted too much money for the labor.

edit for spelling
