Comments about ‘Service jobs projected to grow as manufacturing employment continues to decline’

In other words poverty jobs of under 40 hours a week with no benefits or insurance policies or retirement plans is on the rise while government keeps expanding by inflation and its called growth?

What kind of economy would we have if workers could demand better wages and prosperity without having to compete with illegal cheap slave labor? We used to have a growing economy when business and corporate Utah obeyed the labor laws and immigration laws.

Once business figured out that using cheap illegal labor was not going to be challenged by our business leaders running the government it became mass migration of illegals in and corporate desertion of industry to the best slave market in the world, China. Business would even pay slavers to import illegal aliens and force Americans to surrender to lower wages or lose their jobs. Instead of being Africans, slaves became Mexicans.

The only thing I know is that you can birth an illegal Mexican in the US but it doesn't create an American.

Ah yes, the bottom line of the story is...well...the bottom line. It's a long way around to the DN message that we need guest workers to fill the void when we don't have citizens willing to do those low-skilled jobs.
Except that it is all prof-hype from schools like Berkeley.
If you go back to 2007, before the recession, you'll see that we had plenty of Americans without higher education who need to work. But the illegal aliens have flooded the market and distorted the free market.
A CIS study of census data in 2007 reveals:
6.85 million illegal aliens were holding jobs in the USA
22.34 million Americans with no college were unemployed
10.1 million teens 15-17 were unemployed
So...the problem isn't bodies, it's incentive to work.
And the premise of the story that manufacturing is doing just fine in the USA is folly. Take a look at the labels on the goods you own.

Thank goodness for people willing to do this kind of work. It's a tragedy that they are not paid anywhere near what they are worth for the good they do.

Ikenson would take Facebook over Boeing because the BO administration wont sue Facebook to stop it from adding more jobs like it did Boeing.

And of course the Berkeley economist would favor forced unionization, or rather the elimination of a the secret ballot in union recognition.

We cannot have manufacturing flourish when the BO adminsitration and his EPA do everything they can to shut it down.

After reading this story, my heart was touched with appreciation for Tyrone Winston. One who sees to the needs and comfort of others should never be looked upon as one with "low skills." Rather, we need to recognize that the simple act of attending another is a "skill" of the highest order. Thanks to Tyrone and the many others like him in this world. We are all better off because of those "skills."

Greece is in this same situation, most of their economy is based on service jobs and not enough people manufacturing. We see what a mess they have created. We are heading down the same pathway.

The free trade agreements have brought change with no hope to America. Can't compete with cheap slave labor.

We need to tighten our belts and sacrifice more.
