Please show us. Tell us where to go look. What industries are
hiring the most people. What section of the country. At what
rate of pay. See the US dept of Labor can not or will not
make these numbers available. Why is that. Your side
screams and yells we have gained 9 million jobs. OK put
up or shut up.

What state are you in? Your profile says you are 72 years old, so if that is true you can perhaps work as a greeter for any of the large chain stores, like Lowe's, K-Mart, Wal-Mart, or something in that vein. You might also be able to work at McDonald's which does make an effort to hire elderly people.



If you look through the information available at recovery.gov you will discover many decent-paying jobs are available with the expansion of renewable energy plants, three of them in Wixom, Michigan at a former 340-acre Ford Motor plant. Chrysler moved their 800# Customer Service jobs back to the U.S. at President Obama's request after the bailout, one facility in Utah and the other in Michigan---maybe you could apply.



There are multiple listings for manufacturing jobs, including quite a few in Texas, "Texas"...check out the Thingamajob.com website for those. I found 49 Dallas listings at this site for high-paying full-time (with benefits) manufacturing jobs available with only one try in my search in order to answer this question.



I typed in "Department of Labor websites for jobs listings in the U.S." just now and got all sorts of job search information from every state and at the national level, "Not...," so your assertion that the "US dept of Labor [sic] can not [sic] or will not make these numbers available" is false.



I noticed in your profile that your are involved in Native American issues, so you might be interested in President Obama's first visit as President this week to Indian Country as he travels to the Native American Reservation in North Dakota. The meeting is with the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in Cannon Ball, SD, and topics such as high poverty in the tribal community, high dropout rates for school children, sovereignty of the tribe, and jobs. If you go to whitehouse.gov you might be able to find out more details and even offer your own ideas or requests. Keep the faith.

How do you expect the labor department to count all the jobs in China, India, Pakistan, Vietnam, etc., etc., etc.? Meanwhile, the 9 million jobs we have gained are not nearly enough to replace all the jobs we lost to foreign countries where people will accept wages we couldn't live on so the elites can keep their profits high. And most of them are minimum wage jobs to boot. Seems the only jobs the industry is willing to let us have are the ones that pay the least.



Fortunately, at least some manufacturing is coming back now, since manufacturers are figuring out that China turns out crappy product! LOL

The U.S.–China Relations Act of 2000 was an act that granted permanent normal trade relations to China; it was signed on October 10, 2000 by President Bill Clinton. Prior to passage of the bill, China was subject to an annual review of its trade status with the United States.[1] The act removed the review, eased some trade barriers, and facilitated China's entry into the World Trade Organization.[2]

Ask the greedy right wing CEOs who export all of our jobs to foreign lands because they don't want to pay American workers $10 an hour.

Some say China. I would add India to that list. Jobs in India from American companies skyrocketed during the Bush Jr administration. Let's bring them back..

Try North Dakota...fracking has opened up vast reserves in the bakkan (sp?) field...they have a zero unemployment rate in much of the state....of course if obama and the nutty libs had their way it would all be shutdown but as of now it is booming.

I am a woman, I don't have stones. Does that mean I also don't get to have an opinion? That would go along with the beliefs of those who have exported our jobs and tried to blame anyone and everything else.

Most people who have looked at the "jobs" created in last few years found they are mainly lower paying service jobs and part-time to boot. lol

the labor department has tons of numbers available on all those topics?



but the problem was that we LOST probably millions of jobs in the first year of the recession alone and we're still recovering from that...



if you lose 11 million and gain 9, you're still down... and the rate of pay is going to be low, because the economy is still recovering...and you have more looking than you have jobs



the problem is, you cons have NO IDEA how bad this recession actually was... much worse, PARTICULARLY JOBS WISE than any recession since the great depression...



we had 6 months, (Bush's last few and Obama's first few) if I remember correctly where we lost OVER 600k jobs a month...



in Carter's and Reagan's recession, he had NO month with over 600k losses, even at the worst points... and we've only had ONE month like that since the great depression...and it was barely over 600k, while some of those months were around 800k... a HISTORICALLY BAD recession



EDIT: now to get to your numbers... and where we have some growth now...



the latest unemployment report shows where the growth is, and they release this every month...



Total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 217,000 in May, with gains in professional and business services, health care and social assistance, food services and drinking places, and transportation and warehousing. Over the prior 12 months, nonfarm payroll

employment growth had averaged 197,000 per month. (See table B-1.)



Professional and business services added 55,000 jobs in May, the same as its average monthly job gain over the prior 12 months. In May, the industry added 7,000 jobs each in computer systems design and related services and in management and technical consulting.

Employment in temporary help services continued to trend up (+14,000) and has grown by 224,000 over the past year.



In May, health care and social assistance added 55,000 jobs. The health care industry added 34,000 jobs over the month, twice its average monthly gain for the prior 12 months. Within health care, employment rose in May by 23,000 in ambulatory health care services (which includes offices of physicians, outpatient care centers, and home health care services) and by 7,000 in hospitals. Employment rose by 21,000 in social assistance, compared with an average gain of 7,000 per month over the prior 12 months.



Within leisure and hospitality, employment in food services and drinking places continued to grow, increasing by 32,000 in May and by 311,000 over the past year.



Transportation and warehousing employment rose by 16,000 in May. Over the prior 12 months, the industry had added an average of 9,000 jobs per month. In May, employment growth occurred in support activities for transportation (+6,000) and couriers and messengers (+4,000).



Manufacturing employment changed little over the month but has added 105,000 jobs over the past year. Within the industry, durable goods added 17,000 jobs in May and has accounted for the net job gain in manufacturing over the past 12 months.



Employment in other major industries, including mining and logging, construction, wholesale trade, retail trade, information, financial activities, and government, showed little change over the month."

and then at the bottom, it has links to TONS of numbers that get much more in depth
