My point is that the market demand and supply create the price people are willing to pay for any commodity, including service. Jobs which give personal service are the ones which offer career choices for the future in America. When career choices for women were limited to nurse, teacher or secretary, the available workfoce was huge and the pay correspondingly low.
During the next 20 years as boomers hit the wall of aging, they will need to pay more for help in the areas of healthcare, thus creating career opportunities for Americans looking for a career.

This should be a major growth area given the demographics provided these boomers are able to pay for the care they need if the Federal government is going to be paying then we are talking about an ever increasing part of our econmy being run by the government. This is the alternative to having a booming economy and protective tariffs in place.
