with well-publicized delays to Yukon, is snowballinginto a tremendous
credibility problem. By Barbara Darrow and Paula Rooney, CRN (via

EMPLOYMENT PROMISES - UPDATE
BUSH
EMPLOYMENT PROMISES - UPDATE
08/07/2004 12:14 PM

As
promised in February, here's
an update on the US employment data. After a lot of ballyhoo in recent
months, the US Department of Labour has released terrible July
employment growth data, and quietly revised downwards the employment
data for the previous two months. The latest 'preliminary' (subject to
additional revision) numbers for June and July are 131.24 and 131.27
million respectively. Even assuming a resumption of the very modest
increase rate in the Spring, employment is unlikely to reach 132
million by the end of the year. This compares to 132.4 million when
Bush 'took' office four years ago, and 135.3 million promised last
January (though by one interpretation of his mangled speech, he was
really only promising 132.5 million). This would make Bush the first
president since the great depression to record an absolute loss in
total employment during his administration.
In order just to match the 150 thousand new entrants to the labour
force each month due to population increase, employment should be
rising by 1.8 million per year, and should now be nearing 139 million.
What's worse, the quality of
the new jobs created has been exceptionally poor. Rather than creating
high value, knowledge-intensive jobs to replace the jobs offshored to
lower-wage countries, nine out of ten of the highest-growth sectors of
employment are low-wage, low-expectation jobs (food service,
secretarial etc.) Most growth continues to be in part-time and
temporary jobs. No surprise that so many have just given up looking
for
work. So much for trickle-down economics, and the promised stimulus of
Bush's tax giveaway to his rich friends.
Yet a recent AP-Ipsos poll reports 46% of Americans 'approve' of
Bush's handling of the economy. Who are these people and what have they been smoking?
