90 Million out of work force, Job numbers all wrong

[WillowTree]

Yet, Wall Street and corporate America are hitting record highs.

The only jobs that are available are the ones we cant outsource: restaurants, movie theaters, store clerks, car sales, coffee shops. Basically, the service industry. Which means it is seasonal, and, it pays little, but sends huge profits up the chain. And of course, government to maintain order in that society.

Great for owners and stockholders. Bad for workers.

And the numbers basically show that.

obama care and high corporate taxation show the numbers. democrats did it again. got us into a recession. yay for democrats.

The DJIA id way up because they are making profits
That has little to do with job growth, in fact mass layoffs is one of the reasons for record profits
Corporate taxes are passed on to the consumer. If I pay more for gas because of the taxes WExxon pays in 18 cents on the dollar as well as taxes on there profits, the less I have to spend @ Lowes for an example
thanks Dems

The painful reality of a recession and anti business environment.

Anti-business??????

Corporate America cut their OWN (collective) "throats"!!!​

The NEXT Industrial Revolution​

"When Karl Marx predicted a revolution putting the means of production in the hands of the workers, he probably didn't imagine it to be fought by an army of DIYers.

"Things that 10 years ago you needed to be in a big company to make are now possible from individuals," said Dale Dougherty, founding editor of Make Magazine and the Maker Faire.

Make Magazine has become the Das Kapital of the maker movement showcasing what people are making while the fair offers a real-life meeting point for what is often a very diverse community - "from embroidery to robotics" as Mr Dougherty puts it.

Started in the San Francisco Bay Area in 2006, the Maker Faire has now grown to 60 events around the world each year in locations as diverse as India, Tokyo and Newcastle.

There is also an independent African Maker Faire, and this is a continent where the maker movement can have real impact thinks Mr Dougherty.

Chris Anderson, editor-in-chief of Wired magazine, is so convinced that the maker movement will bring about the next industrial revolution, that he has written a book about it.

The parallels between the current phenomenon and the beginnings of the digital revolution are remarkable, he told the BBC ahead of the launch of his book: Makers, The New Industrial Revolution."
