Our country needs to produce 250,000 net new jobs every month just to keep even with population growth.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Just to keep up with population growth, on average our economy needs to be adding about 125,000 jobs per month.
If you get the government off our back, there's no economy in the world that can create more jobs in the long-term for everybody.
Job growth well in excess of population increase would be a very good thing if it were only that easy.
President Obama has tried to spin the paltry new job creation numbers as 'a step in the right direction.' But, clearly, the small growth in jobs isn't even keeping up with population growth, much less returning the workforce to a healthy level.
So we really need jobs now. We have to take jobs away from other countries because other countries are taking our jobs. There is practically not a country that does business with the United States that isn't making - let's call it a very big profit. I mean China is going to make $300 billion on us at least this year.
We have a plan for a stronger middle class, with the goal of generating 12 million new jobs over the next four years.
In terms of job creation, every billion dollars invested in the physical infrastructure creates 47,000 new jobs.
Every month that we do not have an economic recovery package 500 million Americans lose their jobs.
Increased jobs are the consequence of increased trade. Increasing jobs more than output implies a fall in productivity and standards of living. That surely cannot be our goal.
With 1.7 million private sector jobs lost and half a million jobs shipped overseas over the past three years, we must take action to spur job creation and restore economic prosperity.
