Re:Keep in mind most new jobs created are part time, low wage, no benefit, no future types.
I think you should ask yourself, "Why is that?"
Business in this country is overtaxed, over-regulated and over-demonized by the Leftwing media and politicians needing a whipping boy to get elected.
If we could drop the megaton of regulations and taxes on doing business today--things like not having the government shut down business or let them expand due to onerous environmental concerns, not allow the Keystone Pipeline to be built (the government's not building it, private companies want to do THAT, but the government won't issue the permits), closing coal generated electrical power plants, when our nation is the Saudi Arabia of coal, stupid OHSA regs, highest corporate tax rate in the developed world, et cetera, et cetera, we would have many more GOOD jobs--probably running into the millions of decent jobs.
First that is an interesting assumption, to wit I haven't asked myself why.
While a measure of what I have bolded is true don't forget that corporations, particularly international corporations are quite comfortable with regulations and taxes that can be used to suppress competition from small business and new business. In fact many regulations are written with 'help' of 'experts' from corporate.

In fact many regulations are written with 'help' of 'experts' from corporate. I'm well aware, and they all need to go. Sarah Palin talks vigorously about the perils of crony capitalism, and how it is no more conservative than welfare or unions.
In my opinion, it's straight up fascism, like Krupps or I.G. Farben working with and the Nazi Party...
Today, it is GE or Comcast working with the democrats...
