And just like that the parents point was proven.
95% of the jobs created since 2009 are temp jobs, the actual way the us defines a job was changed under Bush and kept under Obama.
The number of new jobs created have gone down decade after decade since ww2.
The middle class cant come back because their jobs are those most affected by technology and globalization (service industry for instance) the only reason why there is a large group of people working with transportation is because we dont yet have automated cars. Once those get introduced the biggest industry in the US will implode.
This has nothing to do with capitalism or globalization in a vacum, this is a discussion about technologys effect on globalization and capitalism and thus the job market.

- hysan 9y agoFirst hit on Google[1] shows one study about it being 94% of jobs created from 2005 to 2015. So doesn't seem like a stretch so long as you agree with the "the actual way the us defines a job was changed under Bush and kept under Obama" part of the premise. Edit: More reading of other articles suggests that this is true for the 2009 to present timespan. Quote[2]: > The bottom line is: Almost all of the job gains under President Obama have been in so-called service jobs, such as those in Silicon Valley and consulting. Others are the low-end jobs, toiling in stores and restaurants. Every job described in that sentence sounds like a temp job.
