Your point regarding loss of full time jobs being replaced by low-level part time jobs is supported by lagging / poor tax receipts. And rising deficits.

Excellent point.

Those numbers haven’t gotten the attention they deserve.

Why are companies laying off while the jobs market heats up? A family member with a degree (not a BullShite degree) was laid off (along with their entire team), it took three months to find a job. Took an entry-level manager position after being a director. Had they pushed for a comparable job, they would still be unemployed. Conversely, a local lawn care contractor had to hire extra seasonal (illegal) workers. So many new homes have gone up in the last few years that he has been slammed and had to add equipment and workers. He said it is that way for all the local lawn care contractors. Everyone is slammed and cannot take on any new clients. I want to see the real details of what jobs are being added and where. There are a lot of State and Federal jobs being posted right now. But many are six-month contracts with possible extensions. Those jobs have little to no benefits. You are essentially a 1099 contractor. How do those types of jobs factor into the job numbers?
