December Jobs Report: Good Economic News, Better Political News

Payroll Gains. The headline number, a gain in 200,000 payroll jobs, is the kind of figure common in robust recoveries but that has been quite rare in the past few years. December represented the 15thstraight month of job gains. While the U.S. has a long way to claw back all the jobs that were lost in the recession that began in 2008, jobs are coming back. Since February 2010, the economy has added 2.654 million jobs, and it has added 1.64 million jobs since December 2010. December's figure represents the highest number of payroll jobs in the U.S. since March 2009.

The gains were spread through a variety of sectors. Transportation and warehousing industries saw gains of 50,000, driven in part by seasonal hiring—a line that should likely be taken with a few grains of salt. Retail added 28,000 positions — solid, but not spectacular. More significant were the additions in manufacturing (23,000), after a few months of relative idling, mining (7,000 jobs), health care (23,000). A few words of caution: employment in the large professional and business services sector barely budged in December. The average work week, and average hourly earnings both rose marginally. Taken together, the payroll reports shows an economy in which more people were working, for more hours, and at slightly higher wages in December 2011 than they were in November, and in December 2010. This dynamic helps support the creation of a virtuous circle: more workers earning more wages spend more money and do a better job keeping up with debts, which leads to more demand and more production, which in turn leads to more production.

How can there be a jobs bill, only to benefit outsourcers, to Korea, the Phillipines and Colombia

and then make sure not only the American public but the world understand what it really is about by placing a major jobs outsourcer, big time outsourcer, like Jeffrey Immelt as tie Czar for the Bill?
