Since 2007/08, America has lost 1.4 million manufacturing jobs. You know those jobs that pay extremely well. However, American has gained 1.4 million waiters and bartenders. You know those minimum wage jobs. (See the following chart.) But wait, it really gets better. Part-time jobs in June surged by 161,000, while full-time jobs plummeted by 349,000. However, you will never hear these statistics from the main-line media, which is really a very sad commentary on where America currently stands.
