unemployment #'s getting better
corporate profits look great
productivity fantastic
demand picking up

What does all of this tell us?

There's all this talk about creating jobs, however they never go into detail about where these jobs will be.
Will these jobs be manufacturing jobs? What manufacturing, other than war materiels? Certainly not with automobiles. Building aircraft? Building aircraft doesn't create 100s of thousands of jobs. (aircraft and the machine tool industry are about all we have left here, and I'm not so sure about the health of the machine tool industry since there's no demand for machines which make stuff here in the states anymore)
Will it be housing? Unlikely.
Will it be services, finance, or technology? Don't make me laugh.
I know where all these new jobs will be - we'll all be farmers!

I just had one of the largest hospitals in Orange County decide to NOT do a planned upgrade to their PBX because of financial hardship. So on a ground level, we've turned two corners, Jack and Shit, and jack left town. :(

I've learned there's a 12 million dollar project (tax payer funded of course) to upgrade the electrical system on Alcatraz island to solar, battery, with generator backup. Completely off the grid. Is this all just for tourists visiting the island? Or..to make the island ready to use as one big fema camp? Hmm..what the heck, it's a few jobs at least.

If they could only offshore infrastructure upgrades they would.
Alcatraz among new series filming in Vancouver (http://www.canada.com/entertainment/Alcatraz+among+series+filming+Vancouver/4926717/story.html#ixzz1RRYr9saH)

Abrams' midseason thriller series Alcatraz will be based in Vancouver when episode production begins in earnest later this summer. Alcatraz, which Abrams is producing with Lost writer-producers Elizabeth Sarnoff and Bryan Burk, stars Jorge Garcia, Sam Neill, Parminder Nagra and Robert Forster in a tale about a miraculous prison break. Alcatraz will have supernatural elements, like Abrams' other series Lost, Alias and the Vancouver-based Fringe, which is returning for a fourth season. The pilot episode was directed in Vancouver earlier this year by CSI veteran Danny Cannon.
I still shake my head hearing all the interviewed economists talk about how more jobs are just around the corner as the economy 'is turning around'. Everyone agrees jobs are about the most important concern for the average joe, yet the reporter generally never bothers to ask even the most simple sort of followup question, like what type of jobs will these be? This is one of the most obvious signs for me that most reporters are also evil decieving sociopaths, not just stupid and smug.
